Core i9-14900KS overclocked to 9.1 GHz, breaking numerous world records

Intel Core i9-14900KS overclocked to 9.1 GHz.

Intel's latest Core i9-14900KS quickly became one of the best CPUs for enthusiasts. The special-edition 14th Generation Raptor Lake Refresh chip is also fun to overclock, as an elite team of overclockers at Asus has overclocked it to 9,117 MHz on a single performance core and broken various world records.

The Core i9-14900KS already features an impressive 6.2 GHz boost clock, the highest of any consumer processor. However, what's even more outstanding is that a team of talented individuals, including Swedish overclocker Elmor, SkatterBencher, and Shamino, managed to overclock the 24-core chip to 9,117 MHz on a single P-core. Of course, this feat is pure marketing, since a processor can't execute those speeds in a real-world scenario. However, in the overclocking world, the Core i9-14900KS just needs to be stable enough to finish the benchmarks.
