Yes, and I can think of a few reasons:

- 3Dmark is no longer viewed as the "ultimate benchmark"
- Overclocking has become easier. Motherboard BIOSes have come a long way, and the cooling peripherals industry as well.
- Performance gains from overclocking are less meaningful nowadays with so few killer game apps out there to take advantage of it.
