Why can't we buy ASUS / MSI / EVGA CPUs?

These companies release GPUs with minor tweaks to Nvidia \ AMD's designs so how come we can't buy a ASUS CPU with a tweaked Intel design (like better TIM or different voltage control or something) and guaranteed minor overclocks like some GPUs have?
 
That kind of makes sense really.

I think Intel originally licences the x86 architecture to AMD many many years ago and they probably regretted that 10 years later!
