Hello everyone, after reading some of the older messages in this thread I'm a bit worried, because I've got an Erista unit and you keep saying not to overclock it.
What exactly do you mean by “overclock?” Can I use this sysmodule or not? That's all I've been doing

if by “overclocking” you mean pushing past the built-in limits of sys-clk, I've never done that; if by “overclocking” you mean using this sysmodule at all, then I'm fucked lol..
Overclocking is just pushing the hardware harder than what is set by the factory. Your not fucked. The settings by sys-clk are within safe parameters for erista units. From what I've seen/heard, the only damage by sys-clk is shortened battery life. I've been using it my self for the past 3-4 years with the only noticeable "damage" is the shortened battery and even then it could be due to my miss handling (letting the battery completely drain etc)

I've been using the safe clocks for months without issue.
That said, it's always at your own risk when modifying your device. No one here can be held responsible for any damage caused by it.

By “safe clocks” you mean..? Not the one provided by Switch-OC-Suite, I guess?
I'm not really looking for someone to take responsibility. I just want to understand what clocks are deemed “safe” and what aren't.

sys-clk seems to be not working with HOS 17.0.0. Currently using prerelease Atmosphere 1.6.0 and was getting error when opening sys-clk via menu and tesla overlay. EdiZon and emuiibo is working but for opening sys-clk it shows:

Fatal error
sys-clk is not running.

Please make sure it is correctly installed and enabled.

I hadn't tested it because it's reported here that it's not working on FW 18. I just tested it and it seems to work.
 
Hi. Noob question if you don't mind. If im going to use some graphic mods (resolution increase in particular) do i be fine with sys-clk or i should get oc-suite?

sys-clk-2.0.0-rc_4 will work just fine but if you want a more up to date Homebrew with more functions and such you should grab the latest version of OC Switchcraft EOS from this discord: https://discord.gg/GuE4tdG7Xt

Just grab a role (Erista or Mariko) and head over to #tools-projects-and-homebrews
 
Hi everyone. Any update regarding this mod? I'm using OLED and I want to play my games on docked mode.
Post automatically merged:

NX-Venom works for me with Atmo 18.1, sys-clk-2.0.0-rc_4 did not.

Did you delete all the files in SD card before transferring NX-Venum?

Hey Guys. Im using the latent sysclk overlay in my OLED Switch and have a few questions.

Is it normal that my gpu is limited to 600mhz in Handheld mode?

Is GPU throttling normal in some Games? I see Drops so 3xx MHz in Doom here and there. In Crash Bandicoot it stayes at 600

Greetings :)
 
is there a reason why ram oc isn't going past 1600mhz in the newest version, as seen in this video:


where the clock can be set to over 1800mhz. I could swear I played totk with >1800mhz ram oc on my launch switch and everything ran smoothly without stutters. I updated my firmware since then and also had to replace sys clk with the newest version, as it was broken, but now only 1600mhz clocks are available for the ram...
