Professional overclockers have been breaking world records with Z590 motherboards and 11th Gen Intel Core processors over the past month. The latest achievements come from a group that not only beat the previous ones, but, in some cases, demolished them. One that stands out was set by Tobias “Rauf” Bergström, who beat the Super PI single-threaded 32M benchmark by over 20 seconds. An ASUS ROG Maximus motherboard set the last one five years ago. From processor and memory speeds to top scores in GPU benchmarks, the teams beat many records.
