By traditional means you need a K CPU and Z chipset to OC Intel product.

quick answer is no you cant overclock. you may need to upgrade the outlying peripherals such as an ssd and faster ram.

Even if you could, any "overclock" would be a minimal benefit.

And we'd need to know ALL the other parts in this system.
Specific make/model of everything.
