Homebrew Discussion Switch overclocking released (improved N64 & PSX emu)

[m4xw]

im talking about a system-wide overclock not a retorarch one

For the 20th time in the thread: We have a mitm service ready but that causes stability issues, hence it's not released yet.

do you think the 1.7ghz overclock can inflate the battery? test in lakka by natinusalla? or is it linux lakka that pushed the overclock beyond 1.7ghz? just to know, since you tested 24h24 to 1.7ghz without problem?
thank you again

only ever reported case ran at 1.9 GHz and 1GHz GPU for weeks straight, that was also lakka (used to not check thermals too)

Okay. Okay.
so I think that at 1.7ghz it should be pretty reliable without serious consequences 1.5ghz more sure, since the gpu remains at its original frequency (not the test on lakka)
I ask because I don't have the necessary hindsight on the overclock yet, and I don't want to respond to comments on retroarch oc videos,
saying ok everything is fine. anyway we know that overclocking is risky... but to fry the guy switches on youtube would be problematic.
Thanks for the work, it's impressively stable, no problem for me at the moment.

I have updated retroarch with latest build but now, all my GBA saves are broken...
When I try to load any save state or sram save, the game freezes

Did you change any core options prior to this?
Which core?

Nope I didn't change anything
I'm using mgba
All my saves are here on my SD card but all GBA games are crashing when i'm trying to load one.

EDIT: just downloaded new retroarch zip, extracted it on my SD card and overwrited existing files.

exfat? Sounds like corruption

Nintendo has always been cutting every corner possible with their hardware. Do you really think someone there said "Hey, let's have this cool airflow or extra fan just in case someone wants to run homebrew at 1.5 Ghz?" Probably not. Nintendo is always doing the bare minimum to have their own crap run, PERIOD.

You better have an amazing extra fan and whatnot ready to handle it, or get ready to see an army of swollen switches hitting second hand shelves or ebay soon. Are you sure you want to play with fire only to get a few extra FPS?

Nobody makes consoles any differently, they have to be cheap.

what the keyboard warrior probably didn't consider is this tegra is underclocked from 2Ghz like the Nvidia Shield to 1Ghz for longer battery charge, same reason stock it's 720p vs 1080p possibility. An issue m4xw even mentioned about only overclock when needed.

Hmm, I’ve noticed that in Mario 64 in-game the coin counter and star counter both don’t show up, in Zelda OoT there is a long pause when accessing the item menu, as well as some graphical glitching, and in Majora’s Mask the title screen is invisible.

Are these known problems with Muppen64Plus, or do I have something configured wrong?

 

[grabman]

Thanks so much. Bout to test. Where is the setting to oc?

Thanks to all involved made my weekend...

I have the exact same errors as you, my config is default. How do we report these glitches/errors?

Just wait for mupen to be better optimised for Switch. I remember Mupen on Android has similar problems and over time they were ironed out

 

[grabman]

not sure where i went wrong installed 11/30 build but i see no oc options in settings?

 

[arianadark]

screen shot what you see

These are well known, mostly because certain settings are off for performance reasons.
