Can you overclock the MSI B75MA-P45 motherboard.

[Martynelius]

I've won a R9 Fury X but I have a 3 year old CPU the i5-2500k (socket 1155) and I've read that the R9 Fury X runs good with the i5-2500k at least when it's overclocked to around 4.5 GHz but I have the B75MA-P45 as my motherboard and I've seen different forums were people say you can't overclock a CPU on that motherboard so if this is true then which motherboard should I get so I can overclock the CPU. Thank you for spending your time to read this and answer this question (applies only for those who leaves a answer??)

Other than increasing BCLK a bit (5% max and it could lead to issues), you can't overclock. Getting a new motherboard and a better cooler (if you are using the stock one) may be worth it.
