Splave's groundbreaking overclock, surpassing the 4000 MHz barrier with the ROG Matrix 4090, was not accomplished using the included Asus's Matrix AIO cooling solution. Instead, liquid nitrogen was employed, a popular choice among overclockers for achieving such extreme clock speeds. This method resulted in incredibly low temperatures, reaching -34.6°C, despite the GPU running at such a high clock speed.
