Hacking Suggestion Docked mode performance - In portable mode plugged into a wall

[nmkd]

Cooling is problematic too, at least to achieve the official tegra X1 clocks. I think that even Nvidia Shield TV should actually thermal throttle on demanding games (but I never searched that, so no idea)...

Yeah, docked will be fine (your fingers will get warm but if you've ever played on a GPD Win you're used to that ) but I doubt we can get full X1 clocks for longer than a few mins.

haha, i overclocked my gpd win, played through spec ops the line on it, my fingers where fucking burning towards the end.

Doom and Wolfenstein is screwed on performance, but its more a CPU problem sadly, docked or undocked it goes nuts. Specially using the hardest difficulty on doom as it needs more CPU power and sadly docked or portable switch has the same very low CPU clocks which are half of the clocks of the actual Tegra X1.

Docked gpu clocks put it in high quality, but still has low FPS, we also need CPU OC.

On most consoles eventually they get a way to do it, we can just simply wait...

ps: Downclocking would also be cool for very low performance requirement games which we might be able to even cut half the clocks and might still be able to play them for more hours.

I think it shows despite the limitations, how talented the outlast 2 developers are bieng able to port the game with most of the graphical features of the xbone/ps4 versions

Enjoy getting your hands burned

I'm here because of the title

ok, but what is the point you are trying to make with this?

 

[ShonenJump]

its the voltage the switch reads, it will change the output to tv mode so the switch screen will turn off. Also you can have 1080p output on a 720 screen in general, it will look sharper and have rough edges. If switch gets fully hacked maybe we will able to achieve that.

so if we change the voltage to 12w and then tell the system to display the image on the screen instead of the usb-c (dock) then we might be able to get it to work?

probably but that also means having full system access to change the parameters. Which we are far from it.

oh, aight

 

[TonJron]

so?, Has there been any updates about this topic?

Well overclocking is already done in lakka... But will be harder to achieve on Horizon.

How come? is it becuase real switch games already push the tegra x1?

No (it doesn't at all actually, even docked mose isn't at 100% of the cpu, but pushing way harder than that might cause failures). It's more because of the software. We already got access to the full system.

Such a same nintendo didn't equip the thing with a better battery and a higher tdp increase, the console probably wouldn't be memed as the 360p-master race as much.

Would it be possible with a hard-mod that not only increases the voltage but also takes the usb-c and redirects it back to the switch's screen. that way theres no need for software edits except maybe finding a way to keep the switchs screen on if it preset to turn off.

Perhaps soon nintendo will release a Switch XL with more power. afterall the first wave of a console is there way to test the waters and then they actually go all in during the next upgraded version. I.E-DS-DSL-DSI ect.

Would there be any way for the folks at horizon cfw, to integrate the overclocks on a standard switch tho, since it works on lakka?

That sort of stuff comes out of the box with UE4. It's a ridiculously nice engine to work with.

I suppose, but fortnite on switch has the most god-awful AA I have seen in any game (Blocky, blurry, Tons of ghosting, looks like its running at a lower resolution, ghosting and blurry-ness makes it difficult to see far away opponents etc.) , And that game was made by epic themselves

I don't think it would be a good decision.
It is advertised as a home console after all.

(And I'd get triggered as well as many others)
