Beginner - EvoX Bios Overclock.

[sweetdarkdestiny]

 

 

Here is a little beginner tutorial about how you can overclock your EvoX bios using WulfyStylez XBOverclock tool.

 

1. First of, download the XBOverclock tool.

   Download incl. bioses : https://1fichier.com/?qdelzlqfg0dp58scr67a

   Download from Github without bioses : https://github.com/WulfyStylez/XBOverclock

2. Now extract the file. You should now have a folder called “xboverclock”. (In case you downloaded my upload. If not rename the folder to xboverclock)

3. For this “tutorial” we place the extracted folder in C:\ ( C:\xboverclock\... )

4. Now open a command prompt and enter the folder by typing “ cd c:\xboverclock “ and hit enter. You can now check for the files if you want by typing “ dir “. You should now see all the files in that folder.

5. Now we are going to create our own overclocked EvoX bios. This is the command with STOCK values : " xboverclock -nv 233 -fsb 133 -o EvoXm8plusOC.bin EvoXm8plus.bin ".

 

NOTE:

“ -nv 233 ” is the GPU. Base value of it is 233MHz. Change this value to what ever you want but don’t go crazy!

Best is to rise it step by step 1 or 2 MHz and test the bios.

“ -fsb 133 “ is the value for the CPU FSB. In our case it`s 133MHz. Like mentioned above, don’t rise this value to much. #Babysteps!

So go with 1 - 2 MHz at a time and test the bios.

“ -o EvoXm8plusOC.bin EvoXm8plus.bin “ This will tell the tool that it should use the bios “ EvoXm8plus.bin “ and output the overclocked bios as “ EvoXm8plusOC.bin “.

So let’s recap with a little example line and a 2 MHz overclock for the CPU-FSB & GPU.

A valid OC command could look like this : “ xboverclock -nv 235 -fsb 135 -o EvoXm8plusOC.bin EvoXm8plus.bin “

Now it’s time for you to decide what values you like to test. For this tutorial let’s grab the line from the note above and type in your command

prompt : “ xboverclock -nv 235 -fsb 135 -o EvoXm8plusOC.bin EvoXm8plus.bin “ and hit enter.

You should now see the output like in the screen below.

6. You made it. The xboverclock folder should now contain a new bios file named EvoXm8plusOC.bin which you can flash to your mod chip. Note: Do not edit this bios now with e.g. EvTool because that will reset the OC to defaults. So in case you need to make changes to the boot order do it before you overclock the bios!

 

And some words of warning. Don't expect any wonders. In most cases you will not benefit from the overclock. It’s mainly made for emulators and not for games.

In some cases you gain 1 or 2 frames in games and in some cases games will run to fast even with this small overclock. So you would need to patch these games xbe’s for the new clock speeds.

And yes, it’s a lot of work testing out how far you can go with your overclock (every XBox is different which means, it works for me but, it may didn’t work for you) and a lot of trail and error which in some cases could brick your XBox.

So do never ever flash these bioses to a TSOP – NEVER!

Do not flash these bioses to a single bank mod chip like Aladdin, LPC/Cheap Mod etc. without having a external flasher on hand to flash back a working bios or without having a second SST chip laying around to perform a hot flash.

This is a SERIOUS warning and no joke!

So bottom line, is it worth the hassle? Nope. It’s more or less a proof of concept and something to play with for us neerds and nothing for the casual user. But that’s just my opinion and you may think differently about that which is totaly fine.

Finaly we have reached the end of this small “tutorial/overview”. Have fun and please don't brick your XBox by doing stupid things!
