Why was the frequency governor function removed? I loved this option, as it worked with 98% of games, I didn't need to configure each game separately, I just put the maximum clock in the global options and put only the games that had problems with it in the exceptions (GRID Autosport was the only one of my games who didn't like this function)

well because of how HOS works, sys-clk-oc 's governor implementation is bad emulation of real governor and have latency issues, which can cause worses perforamnce or worse power savingss.

and it is not that i removed those features. i had to rework sys-clk basesd on new sys-clk, so i have to re imlement those features back into new sys-clk-ocs. i'm working on reversenx sync now, so prolly this will be implemented back in next release.

but not sure about governor though, becauses of reasons i said above

since lot of users are asking for it, i will make old sys-clk-oc fixed for HOS 17, and i will upload it to Discussions at my github, so check there later

@meha Thank you for releasing the latest switch oc suite! Unfortunately, I cannot update it via AIO. It seems, that AIO.zip is missing in the latest release.

Is this considered the best way currently then to get the most performance out of a switch? I have been out of the loop for about 9 months but on my oled switch I can overclock the ram to about 1900, the GPU to 998 and CPU using an unofficial sys clk but I'd really like to push it further to get the most out of 60fps patches for Zelda etc.

Essentially. This page will allow you to set your own custom values and show you how to unlock frequencies. As always, just be careful, know what you're doing before making changes, and accept full risk and responsibility for anything that happens. I have my RAM OC'd to 2131mhz using this.

there are some private oc patches out there,
but currently all public OC patches for switch is fork of Switch OC Suite (except for Zachy's patch which does only ram oc)

you can overclock further if you use configurator to customize kip file.
every needed info is in github readme and github discussions page

Is this project still subject to the same dependencies as the original? I see an AIO.zip in the releases.

Nevermind, figured it out. AIO has everything needed to OC. I installed Tesla/OVLL/SMO/SNX regardless.

without the governor function, what does this do over stock sys-clk?
just the option to go over sys-clk recommendations?

and should i worry that, when setting ramclock to 1996.8 (on a switch lite), the frequency shown in the overlay seems to be 2013.2? I did not change any settings with the loader configurator

1. Sys clk provided in OC Suite allows setting a global profile for docked, handheld, official charger etc. Useful for forcing highest ram for everything. Also it hides unsafe clocks behind a toggle stock sys clk doesn't do that. Also fixes some bugs where correct voltage isn't set when changing to a higher lcock causing a drop in frequency.

2. Actual CPU and RAM clocks will differ in actuality 1-2% from target clock, nothing to worry about.

top one is target frequency and bottom one is real frequency that device is operating at. it's perfectly fine.

sys-clk-oc version provides following:
- real voltage readings for cpu/gpu/ram (mariko/erista)
- global profile
- cpu volt bug (this is caused by pcv driver bug) mitigation code, and other original sys-clk bug fixes

Option to turn off the switch screen is gone?
I use it when I do sysDVR. Is there any work around?
Thank you

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice

    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze

    so..... yeah

    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double

    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in

    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
