Trouble overclocking a i5-4670K on an MSI Z87-G45 board.

I can't adjust cpu ratio in the Bios, it's not grey'd out but will not change. The cpu will OC when using the OC Genie, it sets the ratio at 40 and cpu runs fine at 4000mhz. I've been overclocking for years and I'm stumped on this one is there something else in the bios that has to be enabled in the bios first?

I can change the clock strap and several other items but really don't want to go down that road right now, seems like the ratio is going to be the most important setting and it won't change.

Running the newest bios version 1.3

Did you try the + and - keyboard keys? I do remember seeing a drop down menu in the first BIOS revision of my motherboard but subsequent revisions uses those keys to change the ratio.

Yes I did, thanks.

Anyone else run into this?

I have this board. Just type in the value you want for CPU ratio using number keys. It took me a while to stumble on this. Same thing for cpu voltages.

Yes!! That's it. Thank you.

Strange how nothing happens when you click on it or hit enter but just start typing numbers and it's good, Still slightly embarrassing haha
