Remember when CPU’s / GPU’s had clockspeeds that didn’t include “up to”

I understand why it’s better net performance doing it this way and better uses the whole potential performance of the chip.

That still doesn’t make me like it, not because of the technical reasons, but because of the way they twist the marketing, it could hit 6ghz for 1 microsecond and they could still claim #nowupto6ghz!

Tell me the base clock, not the "up to... when powered by a fusion reactor" value.
