Comment on Core I9 14900KF Breaks World Record, Almost Achieves 9.1GHz (2023)parent

Not at all really.

The 9Ghz clock was achieved not through any normal cooling or by efficiency of the chip.

These overclocking records have been around for decades but they're in no way shape or form representative of the average of even the top 1% of users.

It's impressive purely because it was possible with an off the shelf chip.
