Why does GPU performance tail off/decline with an artifact-free higher core speed?

Another random thought popped into my head today that i've not seen an explanation for.

I'm sure we've all seen this, as well as reviewers comments.

You have the GPU at the limit of its overclocking headroom and you push it a bit more.

Your temps are ok

You have no artifacts

Yet game/benchmark performance is the same or even a bit worse

Why does this happen when the core is running faster?
