American overclocker keeph8n has been absent from the HWBot homepage for quite a while. That's understandable; his country is currently facing one of the world's most serious and challenging situations. However, self-isolation can still provide the impetus for processor overclocking experiments.
keeph8n did just that. He acquired a solid sample of the six-core, twelve-thread AMD Ryzen 5 3600X chip and pushed it to 5200 MHz, setting a new record in the HWBOT x265 Benchmark - 4k, albeit only for the specific processor model:
