I want to overclock my i5 3570k and have done some research on how to to this responsibly. One of the first things I found was: make changes to the following bios-settings: "turbo voltage" (+0.004V) and "offset voltage" (+0.005V). The "turbo voltage" setting is no problem and can be found in my bios. The "offset voltage" setting isn't there.. I can't find it and there isn't anything about it in the manual (LINK TO ASROCK).
Could you guys help me out? Can I even overclock without the setting? What can you advice me?
thanks.

PC specs:
CPU i5 3570k
GPU AMD HD750
RAM DDR3 8gig
PSU 530W
OS windows 7 ultimate x64
I set the turbo voltage to +0.004V, and the multiplier tot 38 (instead of 34 stock) for a small overclock. I use the stock cooler for now (plan on getting a watercooler in the near future).
After about a hour of of prime95, this is the result:
