Hacking New 3DS CPU & Ram.

[Reecey]

I just always thought it might be possible since we can overclock a CPU and Ram on a desktop or Laptop if your lucky enough to own one of those high end gaming machines laptops!, I thought maybe the 3DS could be done in the same manner with a homebrew clocker, maybe! but yes it could be a massive risk in case it overheated and bamn

We have. It's just really badly optimized... It requires some hefty PC specs.

It's not badly optimized, it's made for 100% perfect accuracy, which requires a shit ton of power. It's done on purpose.

It just wouldn't work like that. Since the N3DS has more cores, you would have to not only overclock the CPU but overclock it to such a degree it can emulate the extra cores. It would fry. Even then overclocking RAM only yields faster read/write, not more RAM space.

Yes I know, perhaps I should have used another word.

I ran "Accuracy" mode on my computer, and it didn't seem to make any noticeable difference compared to other emulators. Only used like 15% of my CPU.

I enjoy the lag on UN squadron. Would never be able to beat that game on emulator without lag.

Damn, I just want to play the New 3DS games but without buying the New 3DS!

Wait 10 years for an emulator or buy whatever comes after the New 3DS (assuming it'll be backwards compatible). Those are pretty much your only options.
