System with interposed installed

[XboxGuy]

Some time back I bought a board with the 1.4 interposer mod already installed but unfortunately didn’t have time to mess with it until now. Checked his GitHub and saw references that say XBMC will always report 1.4 regardless of the switch setting. Is there a way I can confirm if the switch is actually switching between 733 and 1.4? I tried several retail games from disc without patching which I understand should have issues but both worked with the switch on or off. I also verified the blue led on the interposer stays on regardless of switch setting. 
 

thanks in advance

Maybe an emulator with a game that's known to lag without significant boost? Run the arcade game R-TYPE Leo. Flip the switch while running that, and you should see a huge difference.

Figured it out after reading a few different topics and got a response back from N64. The LED is brighter when full performance. Clock speed doesn’t change but it does reduce performance and the light dims when off.
