    Intel previews SSD overclocking


    Posted: 02 Sep 2013
    Overclocking of processors and graphics cards has been a staple of the PC enthusiast community for years, but it looks like a new component will soon be available for the tweaking set.

    Intel, which offers CPUs with unlocked multipliers (the "K" series) to ease the overclocking process, is now apparently working on letting users overclock their solid-state drives. The company just previewed the overclocking potential of its SSDs at the PAX Prime festival, with more info supposedly coming at the upcoming Intel Developer Forum next week.

    The faster users burn through their hard drives by overclocking them, the faster they buy replacements... brilliant for revenue stream
