You cant overclock, its not a k series cpu and and not an overclocking chipset on your mobo.

you can't its not unlocked, only intel k series processors can overclock with the exception of the pentium G3258. even if the processor was overclockable that motherboad wont support it, because z series motherboards are good for overclocking with. once again the exception being the pentium g3258

It cannot be done, the only intel cpus that can be overclocked have k or x at the end (apart from the pentium g 3258). Your chip has a locked multiplier and cant be overclocked

go to your BIOS Setup Utility and see if you can overclock it if not try downloading oc softwares for unlocking your locked CPU

It's still possible to overclock a non-K Intel processor, it's just much trickier and you'll only gain a 200-300Mhz increase at best. This method of overclocking involves increasing the base clock (BCLK), which is otherwise known as the FSB method of overclocking.

If I've lost you already, do plenty of research before you think about going down this route. Increasing BCLK is much riskier as you can irreversibly damage other components in your PC.
