Nothing like abusing the hell out of the system with a overclock.

From the post:

>A couple of years ago Raspberry Pi posted about overclocking a regular Pico to a ridiculous degree - achieving a 1 GHz overclock and (briefly) boosting the performance of the Pico above the original Pi. Picos overclock very well, and the original Raspberry Pi Pico🗗 will normally run at over 400MHz if given a 1.3V core voltage. On the RP2040 that is as far as you can easily go because the on-board voltage regulator is limited to supplying a maximum of 1.3V. When I first got my hands on the RP2350 datasheet, one thing I noticed rather quickly was that the voltage regulator could have the voltage limit disabled, so that voltages above 1.3V could be requested. And once I got a Pico 2🗗, I was intrigued to see how it would behave at higher core voltage (and whether the magic smoke would come out if I raised the voltage too high!)
