How Overclocking Really Works on Intel CPUs

Overclocking isn’t just about pushing CPU cores to higher clocks. On modern Intel processors, real performance gains come from understanding how the chip is built and how its subsystems work together. In this episode of The Blueprint, we break down what overclocking can actually change inside the processor, and why memory, fabric, and ring frequencies matter as much as core clocks. If you’re a PC enthusiast or gamer who wants to understand the “why” behind overclocking, this one’s for you.
