13th Gen Intel Core Platform Crosses 9 GHz in Overclocking Frequency World Record
December 22, 2022 | IntelEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
The 13th Gen Intel Core desktop processor family has overtaken the longstanding processor overclocking frequency world record. In less than three months, the Intel Core i9-13900K has twice set the frequency overclocking world record.
The ASUS overclocking team officially set a new world record for overclocking, pushing the 13th Gen Intel Core i9-13900K past the 9 gigahertz barrier to 9.008 GHz. Additionally, the team set new records in PIFAST (6.85 seconds) and SUPERPI 1M (3.822 seconds). Combining the Core i9-13900K with the ROG MAXIMUS Z790 APEX – and a healthy dose of liquid helium – the ASUS overclocking team became the latest to showcase the unprecedented overclocking performance in Intel’s unlocked processors.
Working with partners like ASUS, Intel continues to provide desktop enthusiasts and gamers with the best processors and features for overclocking in the PC industry.

It’s Only Common Sense: Hire for Hunger, Train for Skill
04/13/2026 | Dan Beaulieu -- Column: It's Only Common SenseMost companies are hiring incorrectly. They hire for polish when they should be hiring for passion. They hire for credentials when they should be hiring for commitment. They hire for experience when they should be hiring for edge. Then they sit around wondering why the team feels flat, momentum stalls, and why the culture lacks spark. In my years of experience, I’ve learned that skills can be taught, but hunger cannot.
