Question about Overclocking

can I overclock a Non-k Haswell CPU by increasing the FSB ?
my i5 4440 is @3.1 GHz
how much can I get by increasing the FSB ?
thank you
 
I'm unsure if non-Z chipsets support baseclock overclocking, my guess is probably not, but if you have the option then by all means try it!

Last I read, you generally can get away with 5-7MHz before causing instability, which would land you at 3.3 base / 3.53GHz turbo.
 
Usually not worth it unless you are trying to get the last bit out of an OC attempt, but in my experience it's best to stay under 5%.
