der8auer is currently one of the best overclockers in the world. He has put together an easy-to-follow guide for those of you who want to overclock a non-K processor (K at the end of the model number denotes the unlocked multiplier variant of the CPU, Core i7 6700K for example).
"Few days ago I published a short article about overclocking non-K CPUs. The non-K OC is really easy and can be done within few minutes. Depending on the CPU you can increase the clock between 15-70 % without any problems. In this quick guide I will explain how you can OC your non-K CPU on ASUS Z170 boards."
