The golden age of overclocking has long passed, and CPU overclocking has become increasingly difficult: it took 15 years to break through to 9.0GHz

According to news from this site on May 7, the "thank you for all mankind" meme that has been ridiculed by many users may be coming to an end. Intel recently invited two of the industry's leading overclocking experts to discuss global 9GHz CPU overclocking at its headquarters.

SkatterBencher's Pieter-Jan Plaisier and ElmorLabs' Sandström review the history of CPU overclocking, highlighting that overclocking has encountered significant resistance over the past 17 years.

#In October 1999, overclocking players successfully overclocked 650 MHz to 1 GHz on AMD Athlon processor. The overclocking time attached to this site is as follows:

It was 15 years later, at the end of 2022, that players overclocked to exceed 9GHz. The current world record is 9,117 MHz set by Elmor using the Core i9-14900KS, and this record should not be broken for a long time to come.
