    Intel produces a series of unlocked CPU's that can be overclocked. These CPUs are from the "K" or "X" series. Example: Intel Core i9-9900K, Intel Core i9-10940X.

    These are the few things that are to be kept in mind while overclocking:

    -Motherboard: Motherboard should support overclocking. Example: Intel Z series, most AMD motherboards.

    -Cooler: Boosting the clock speed increases the temperature. The cooler has to be upgraded to keep the temperatures low. Example: Water-cooled. Also, the heat sink has to be checked if it's working properly.

    -Be ready to test your system in BIOS. Make sure the temperature, voltage, memory speed is stable for the set clock speed.
