Does the Asrock h97m support overvolting the cpu? like with overclocking and changing the cpu multiplier. And could it overclock the i5 5675c?

Just wondering, why would you upgrade from a 4790k to 5675c?

Different build

Oh ok.

Didn't [someone] release a bios update on their boards that allowed them to overclock on H97?

No, that was all the other boards, and it was Asus that did it first.

H97 isn't really made for overclocking.

You can still tinker with the BCLK. But don't expect a very high OC that way. H97s weren't really designed for OCing.

You would need to do a software overclock, in Intel Extreme Tuning or something.

Yes you can. The limitations are: you can't freely oc ram and you can't mess with BCLK (always 100), but you can increase clock ratios per core and mess with voltages
