Non-K Intel Skylake processors do not possess an unlocked multiplier (which ultimately makes it a breeze to overclock processors as long as they tweak the settings appropriately and have a cooler capable of dissipating all that heat), meaning that they will have to overclock the manual way, which is increasing the base clock frequency through the BIOS. Despite the fact that users are unable to reach high overclocking speeds through this method if they are carrying it out on a non-K processor, increasing the chip’s frequency by even 500-600MHz per core will deliver a handy amount of performance for pressing tasks....
