According to this article
https://www.tweaktown.com/news/106021/amds-next-gen-zen-6-chips-could-
launch-with-crazy-high-7-0ghz-cpu-clock-speeds/index.html
there are rumors floating around that succest AMD's next generation of
Ryzen processors may be capable of burst clock speeds as high as 7 GHz.
Naturally, unverified rumor is to be taken with a grain of salt.
But I can think of a way in which this would be technically feasible.
Intel, for a while, made processors with P and E cores - Performance and
Efficiency.
AMD declined to go that route, as they feel their Zen cores have the
ability to serve a wide performance range as the voltage is adjusted.
But to get a clock speed of 7 GHz... well, one could use a BR core
(for "bragging rights") based on the Bulldozer design. I mean, that's
basically how IBM (which had the opportunity to use insane cooling
solutions) got 5 GHz in its mainframes a while back.
No doubt AMD is not doing anything so stupid, and if it does get to 6.7
GHz or whatever they will come by it honestly.
