As it happens, overclocking is one of the few reasons to bother with the 14900ks.
“Hey, guys, you know how our top desktop cpu runs hot, is really expensive, and loses in most gaming benchmarks to an AMD cpu that costs $200 less? Let’s fix that by releasing one that’s 2% faster, gets even hotter, and is even more expensive.” - a daily conversation at Intel.
This may excite some, but I value sustained real-world performance more. For example, the fast processors tested by Gamers nexus.
“You might enjoy F1 racing, but I value fuel-efficient commuters more.”
We can like both things.
The index of efficiency at LeMans is where the 2 meet for me.
I also dig the hyper milers, but don’t commute far, so haven’t bothered with my own cars.
