Most of the stunning overclocking results seem to be based around Intel processors, but the AMD Phenom II X5 975 Black Edition was been caned within an inch of its life, to 7.13ghz. No they didn't get this with a Noctua NH D14- this was achieved on nitrogen.

The launch of the new Intel Core Ultra 200S family of CPUs along with Z890 motherboards was a thorny process. KitGuru suffered along with pretty much every other review site on the planet and you may have noticed we held off from reviewing of the Core Ultra 9 285K, Core Ultra 7 265K and Core Ultra 5 245K as it is clear to us that Intel has some work to do before this platform is ready for action.

Yeah that is pretty weird, most overclockers certifycthe figures
