Am I doing something wrong with overclocking?

I'm just having trouble getting Asus Thermal Radar 2 to seemingly do anything to my i7 4770k and wonder if anyone might have any hints as to what I'm doing wrong?

I tried various settings leading up to going all out max here...

But my CPU temp and speed seemed to stay exactly the same.

I couldn't seem to find much of a guide on how to overclock with this program (a video on YouTube but it mostly detailed the fan settings) so any thoughts would be great. Thanks!

I see nothing in that software to allow overclocking, just adjusting temp. and voltage control.

You'd be much better off overclocking via the BIOS, manually, and forgetting trying to use any Asus software. While I like all the Asus ROG motherboards I've owned over the years, Asus's software is buggy as hell and best never loaded in the first place. Do your overclocking via the BIOS.

Ah that's good to know, thanks! I will do
