First time overclocking, need help please

[vosszaa]

Hi

My specs:
6900k
Kraken X61
Asus X99 A-II
Corsair DDR4 32GB 3200mhz
GTX 980TI SLI
eVGA G2 1000w

How exactly do I need to set BIOS to achieve 4.2ghz?

Some say I need to use XMP profile some say I should avoid it entirely and set it to manual. I'm kinda confused already

Can any experts help me please

It's pretty much the same as any other unlocked intel cpu.

You are not going to get much overclocking with that board a most a modest Bump.
