Does the Switch 2 hardware allow overclocking?

Overclocking is the best feature of hacked Switches. The performance improvement makes games feel so much nicer to play. When and if the Switch 2 gets hacked, will it be possible to overclock Nvidia's new chip?

I shook my magic 8-ball and it said: "Probably"

My brothers sister who is friends with a guy, who is cousins with a family pet, who knows a guy, that is a distant relative with a Nintendy executives dog, says "Maybe"

I wasted all three wishes from a gamegenie lamp just now every time I asked the he just said "possibly"

A definite "maybe"...

Well I'm just gonna go ahead and say yes. Feels safe to assume that Nintendo hasn't pushed the SoC to its limits for the same reasons they didn't in Switch 1 (power consumption heat etc), and given the underlying operating system is mostly the same, it would likely be able to be overclocked in much the same way if/when hacked.

Even if we would have homebrew access and would be able to oc it..... I wouldnt... Lmao when i play pkmn scarlet it gets very warm and with oc.....i prolly could cook an egg on it

Given that Nintendo has underclocked it, it probably is.
