Is manual overclocking the PC worth the while?

[QUOTE="HarborFront, post: 1013609, member: 55987"] I mean overclocking the 1) RTX4090 GPU 2) CPU 3) RAM For GPU All RTX4090 GPUs perform alike..............maybe some fps differences. Some GPUs allow 10% OC while others can give 30% OC but fps maybe difference by 5fps. 5fps difference in gaming is not noticeable. For GPU without OC power consumption should be around 400W With factory overclocked GPU power consumption can hit 500W And if manual OC power consumption can reach a max of 600W If manual overclocking only gives say a 2% performance increase with probably 5fps better, is it worthwhile the OC with 100W more of electricity bill, time spent and likely with instability issue? Also, note that current CPU/GPU are running so fast...............making OC not an attractive option. On top of that, you'll likely need a custom water cooling system and/or additional larger fans for max OC As for the CPU CPU OC is going to be a thing of the past.......................6GHz OOB without OC 😁 [URL='https://wccftech.com/intel-core-i9-13900ks-raptor-lake-the-worlds-first-6-ghz-cpu-is-launching-in-early-2023/']Intel Core i9-13900KS "Raptor Lake", The World's First 6 GHz CPU, Is Launching In Early 2023[/URL] Unless you go for DDR5 8000 MT/s RAM then OC CPU and RAM. 8000 MT/s looks like the max limit for DDR5 RAM Any comments?
