Borrowed from German über-. Doublet of over-.

Or, imitating the German, [ˈjuːbə], [ˈɪuːbə], [ˈyːbə(ɹ)].

uber-

(slang, augmentative) Super; really; mega-.
- 2004 January 11, “This Is No Place For Noise”, in Albuquerque Journal, page B1:
  Uber-fans forget that even a sporting arena is a public place, not the living room; and that in public places certain rules of conduct apply.
- 2004 April 3, “Payne hopes for Uber-horse - Gelding fashionably attired for $3m race”, in The Weekend Australian, page 80:
  And Gisele Bündchen was known as an uber-model, over and above super-models.

A hyperbolic term, implying extremely, to the point of obsession. May accordingly have pejorative connotations, as in uberdork, ubergeek.
