Intel a new utility called Intel Performance Maximizer, which should help simplify the overclocking of proprietary processors. The software reportedly analyzes individual CPU settings and then uses "hyper-intelligent automation" technology to allow for flexible performance tuning. In essence, this is overclocking without the need to configure the BIOS settings yourself.
This solution is not entirely new. AMD offers a similar product for its Ryzen processors. The Intel Performance Maximizer is only compatible with a few 9th Gen Core processors: Core i9-9900KF, Core i9-9900K, Core i7-9700KF, Core i7-9700K, Core i5-9600KF, and Core i5-9600K. NVIDIA has another similar solution for branded video cards. All this allows you to overclock processors and video cards with just one click.
Of course, such automated overclocking is inferior in some aspects to manual settings in the BIOS. However, the performance difference between the classic way and using the Intel tool is negligible, and the ease of use is obvious. In addition, Intel Performance Maximizer allows you to manage overclocking safely, which will surely appeal to novice overclockers.
The utility is free and can be from the official website of the chipmaker. To run it, you need a PC based on an Intel Z390 chipset motherboard running Windows 10 version 1809 or later, and the system must be booted in UEFI mode. It is also necessary to activate all the cores.
It has not yet been specified whether the utility will be available for models with older processors.
