It's been a while for me and where it was relatively "simple" in the Pentium 4 and Athlon XP era to overclock, a lot of overclocking possibilities have become available the last few years. CPUs are more involved with on-board voltage regulation, but also refocused overclocking variables and motherboard manufacturers take it more seriously.
Vccin, LLC, PLL, cache voltage, Vdroop, System Agent voltage, BLCK, CPU ring/uncore, etc.
These are all very vague terms for the uneducated overclockers and I also don't know exactly what they do (just a basic understanding). It might even be stated that overclocking doesn't fit with SFF, I've stated that more than once when a 450W, K-series CPU and high-end GPU were stuffed inside an Ncase M1.
This thread isn't meant as my personal OC thread, I hope others will join with their amazing or disappointing endeavours. I'll be kicking off this thread with my own project in the post below.
