ASUS in-house overclocker Safedisk gave the new Intel Xeon Sapphire Rapids HEDT platform a go at the release date.. Although the clocks looked not really impressive, the performance and power consumption spoke for themselves.

Last week some more overclockers were invited to ASUS OC lab to play again with Intel's Sapphire Rapids Xeon processors. USA overclockers Splave and Fugger put the ASRock W790 WS and the Supermicro X13SWA-TF on the charts.
