Assuming you don't care about energy prices, climate change and fan noise, there is still thermal throttling that can lead to cycles of boost-throttle-boost-throttle that can result in uneven frame pacing.

Of course my assumption is that the system will be cooled adequately, avoiding any thermal throttling at sustained maximum load. That's true for the current hardware generation too.
