What do you think? Is there any value of having full CFW on 3k, go etc
Would you do it if there was a risk of bricking, even if tiny?

cheers
Sounds like a recruitment drive for people with 'unhackable' PSPs to beta test Perm CFW for 6.60! (maybe just a poll but I think its more)
Would any Temper PSP fanboys be interested perchance?
Drop Mister Davee a line on Twitter or Wololo.net if so!

Kinda pointless imo. The "temp cfw" takes a whole 5 seconds to boot, then does everything a perma hack does.

Well of course it could still be just a mere survey.
Also if it was true, it does mention risks, no matter how small, and risks usually mean the possibility of bricking 'unhackable' PSPs and since there is no publicly known unbricking method, you can be left with a dead console.
It's a bit like the permanent CFW method for 6.20, although the risk is small, there are still some who did brick their PSPs with it.

I am interested of testing this. Where do I start?
Keep an eye on this thread for further details:

There was one exactly -- the guy before me. I was a beta tester for that hack too.
There's definitely risks involved, but Davee is the best CFW surgeon around. :)
Kinda pointless imo. The "temp cfw" takes a whole 5 seconds to boot, then does everything a perma hack does.
This an extremely valid counterpoint -- this sort of thing is not for people who can't afford to lose their PSP.
This is more for geeks who can't resist the irrational desire to tinker with their gadgets (and have a spare system in case things go wrong). :P

This. I have a Go with a temp CFW, and I love it. I can use my PS3 to download things without it having to conflict, then switch firmwares and play ISOs. Its the best of both worlds!

Sweet! Maybe this will be the reason for me to upgrade from 5.03. xD

(only reason me being on 5.03 is because I don't use my PSP often anymore.)
Why not just go for 6.20?

I have hacked several PSP's in the last year and put 6.20 Perm on all of them. I think it's great.

But I haven't touched my PSP in like 3 months. Too lazy I guess.

Given that this is Davee, the "tiny risk of brick" is likely "if you're a fucking retard and ignore all the instructions", so I'mma' go with the first vote.

I mean it doesn't look like there's going to be something past 6.60 now anyways, so having the latest on perm would be a good closing note.

EDIT: Typo.

Honestly, I think this will only be used by those people who are just too lazy to waste 7 seconds of their time actually activating the CFW. I rarely shutdown my PSP, so I don't find myself running it often anyway.

Well it's easier to not have to wait for the few seconds. Not that I honestly mind, but it's just easier. Guess it's time for closure on the PSP.

cant a temp hack be made for the ps3. its ofcourse not possible due to the hardware differences but a temp hack of some sort would be great.

psp after that great hack and determination has been going great till today
Hardware difference I guess.. On the other hand, after the PS3 gets into the same situation as the PSP (games being released more rarely), it's possible that a similar type of exploit or hack can be found without it being patched in the same manner :)

I agree, I turn my PSP off, and the only time I need to run the CFW is when I don't use my PSP for a while and the battery goes dead.

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the vram is one advantage when it comes to AI but ends up being slower even with that and really AI is the only use case that needs more than 12gb vram right now
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Interesting lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think I watched a video where two games at 4K where eating just over 16GB of RAM and it's the one case where the 7900XT and XTX pulled ahead (minus RTX of course)
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So my opinion is that they could age a bit better in the future, and maybe AMD will continue improving them via drivers like they tend to do. No guarantee there but they have done it in the past. Just a feeling I have.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    cyberpunk at 4k without DLSS/fidelityfx *might* exceed 12gb
    +1
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that game barely runs at native 4k
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think it was some newer games and probably poorly optimized PS4 or PS5 ports
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    they definitely will age better but i feel dlss might outweigh that since it looks about as good as native resolution and much less demanding
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    When I played Cyberpunk on my old 2080 Ti it sucked lol
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    AMD could introduce something comparable to DLSS but nvidia's got a lot more experience with that
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    least amd 7xxx has tensor cores which the previous generations didn't so there is the potential for AI upscaling
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They have FSR or whatever it's called and yeah it's still not great
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so AMD seem to finally be starting to take AI seriously
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Oh yeah those new 8000 CPUs have AI cores built in that's interesting
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Maybe they plan on offloading to the CPU?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Would be kinda cool to have the CPU and GPU working in random more
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Tandem even
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think i heard of that, it's a good idea, shouldn't need a dedicated GPU just to run a LLM or video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the nvidia shield tv has AI video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    LLMs can be run on cpu anyway but it's quite slow
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Have you ever been beaten by a wet spaghetti noodle by your girlfriend because she has a twin sister, and you got confused and fucked her dad?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I had a girlfriend who had a twin sister and they would mess with me constantly.... Until one chipped a tooth then finally I could tell them apart.... Lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They would have the same hair style the same clothes everything... Really messed with my head lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @The Real Jdbye, I could see AMD trying to pull off the CPU GPU tandem thing, would be a way to maybe close the gap a bit with Nvidia. Plus it would kinda put Nvidia at a future disadvantage since Nvidia can't make X86/64 CPUs? Intel and AMD licensing issues... I wonder how much that has held back innovation.
