This is just boot time improvement, what does it have to do with PSP or overclocking ?

He is basically just the spokes person for the developers and a beta tester, what he says should be taken with a grain of salt, he is not a developer and he has no control over when overclock will be released.

@MVG care to talk about your experience with overclocking?

You had to have been following along to understand. I saw CTC mention 1600mhz with Minerva Training. Also, I read somewhere about the faster clock speed helping PSP on Horizon.

Switch's ram can already run at 1600mhz in horizon. And I think the Minerva stuff is mainly for things outside of horizon

anyway, awesome to see this released

 

[Keylogger]

Yeah finally!

I’m guess pcvSetClockRate(PcvModule:cvModule_Cpu, 1785000000) MAX safe speed ?

There is a compiled version or something?

one of the devs, m4xw, is sharing it on twitter...kind of. there was a user giving him unnecessary beef and being just a gigantic asshole, so i wouldn't be surprised if he wants to withhold it. i've asked m4xw politely for a compiled binary, and so have a couple of other people. he's sent it to one person so far but not myself.

Mm...i see, by the way can someone ask those 2 if they can share it? Because m4xw are busy.

i stand corrected! sorry about that.

 

[Agusto101]

Well doesnt matter its bad force people release something they dont want but already they have so its kind of annoying anyways its a matter of time, better get ready for smash

 

[templeofhylia]

just started playing super mario 64 on my switch and i'm already impressed by the framerate!!! wonder if banjo-tooie works.............no matter how hard i try, i can NOT get that game to boot on my wii u (but banjo-kazooie is fine) so it'd be so nice to finally be able to play it on a console.

Pretty sure 1.78Ghz is not a safe speed and will probably cause the battery to overheat and fail.

Also for anyone complaining about this not being implemented by @mx4w or whatever, setting a single speed like that patch is a hack. The ideal way to handle it would be a menu in RA, or even better a KIP that can control the speed globally.

Aside from that, the original clock speed isn't restored correctly in handheld mode in that patch. What it *should* do is use pcvGetClockRate before the first pcvSetClockRate and restore that value on exit.
