New world record for AMD acceleration: Radeon RX 9060 XT to 4.769 GHz

AMD recently posted a video in which two well-known overclockers—Bill “Sampson” Alverson and Allen “Splave” Golibersuch—demonstrate a record boost of the Radeon RX 9060 XT graphics processor. The chip was forced to run at 4.769 GHz.

ParameterClaimed by AMDAchieved in video
Base frequency (8 GB / 16 GB)2.53 GHzBoost frequency
Boost frequency3.13 GHz4.769 GHz

> In AMD’s official specifications for the RX 9060 XT, the base clock is 2.53 GHz and the boost clock is up to 3.13 GHz. The overclockers in the video surpassed these figures by almost 1.6 GHz.

What can be seen from the video
- The clip does not disclose details of the overclock: voltage, temperature, power limits, or core load at the record frequency.
- It is obvious that extreme cooling was used—presumably liquid nitrogen.
- The overclockers employed an “internal AMD tool” to change the clock rate.

Where to find official data on records
There is no single registry of GPU world records. The most popular resource is the SkatterBencher page, which compiles results and methodology:

- Previous discrete GPU record: 4 020 MHz (GeForce RTX 4090).
- Integrated GPU record: 4.25 GHz (Intel Arrow Lake at Computex 2025).

How the new achievement was discovered
AMD did not announce the record through its official channels. The information entered public view by accident—the video appeared on the company’s YouTube channel, but without any comment from AMD.

Conclusion: Overclockers Bill “Sampson” and Allen “Splave” set a new world record for boosting the Radeon RX 9060 XT to 4.769 GHz. This exceeded the previous discrete GPU record by almost 800 MHz, but the details of the overclock remain unknown due to lack of technical information in the video.
