August 16, 201411 yr How much do producers of processors and microchips gain from Overclocking? I know it's a fantastic hobby, fun for us. For producers it's marketing, factory OC, XMP etc. but at planning or production stage? Maybe it's a strange question, but I'm wondering how OC could help a small company that produces microchips for mobile devices like phones or tablets.

Probably not an awful lot, but there must be enough interest in overclocking in general for companies like ASRock and Gigabyte to produce "OC" series boards. Having a small microprocessor company make OC products probably wouldn't be profitable due to the RMA rate that comes with it I imagine. Just think about how many Haswell CPUs must have been RMA'd by HWBot users alone, would be many thousands.
