Intel announced at its annual Computex keynote its soon-to-be-released Intel Performance Maximizer (IPM) overclocking software, which automatically overclocks your Intel 9th-generation unlocked processor.

The Intel Performance Maximizer software is still in diapers so it can only do its magic on the current 9th-generation "K" chips. In Intel 's word, the tool examines the DNA of the processor to autotune it. It basically analyzes the processor's cores to find out the maximum speed that they are able to operate at without falling into instability. In Intel's demonstration, the Core i7-9700K processor was overclocked to 5.2 GHz on all eight cores in a matter of minutes. However, Intel is likely using a cherry-picked chip so your actual mileage may vary.

One of the planned features consists of evaluating each core individually to find out the maximum speed for that core. Essentially, you'll have each core in a multi-core processor, such as the Intel Core X-series running at its fastest speed possible. The new feature should be implemented into the Intel Performance Maximizer utility towards the end of the year.

The Intel Performance Maximizer utility will be available to download for free next month at Intel's website.
