Are you still after a build? it built ok. will test on spare 1.6 soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natetronn Posted December 11, 2022 Report Share Posted December 11, 2022 I put it in E:\Applications\Xbox Overclock\default.xbe This is probably (?) a good start: 152 FSB = 150Mhz 272 NVCLK = 825Mhz 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hastings298 Posted December 11, 2022 Report Share Posted December 11, 2022 Would this overclocking stick through launching anything though? Like emulators or whatever? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like emulators or whatever? Maybe. Just depends. I had some success testing between dashboards and a couple apps, but I didn't test much more than that; mostly just to see if it actually worked or not. I'm not sure IGR will work. You'd need to overclock the traditional way if you wanted more "stick". Edited December 12, 2022 by Natetronn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard B. Riddick Posted December 12, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2022 What I like the most is that you can OC when you really need it and any time (emulators, some heavy homebrew games) For example, there are reatail games that do not work properly when you made OC. No problem, just reset the console and you are default. Just Perfect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hastings298 Posted December 12, 2022 Report Share Posted December 12, 2022 Anyone got any ideas as to *what* we could playtest to see any noticeable differences? I've been playing through a couple of Final Burn Legends games, CPU heavy shmups with a lot going on onscreen where slowdown is a thing, but I'd love to hear others' ideas on this. PS1 emulation, N64 emulation, that kind of stuff comes to mind in terms of slowdown generally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natetronn Posted December 12, 2022 Report Share Posted December 12, 2022 (edited) I contacted admins to fix a typo in my initial post, should be 272 NVCLK (not 172), so: 152 FSB = 150Mhz272 NVCLK = 825Mhz ~824HMz is what it reads in XMBC4Gamers when all said and done on the 1.6 I tested on, but ymmv.

Any idea what's special about 825MHz, Kaos? I've tried a few combinations but my xbox doesn't want to go even 1Mhz above this level Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dust08 Posted December 13, 2022 Report Share Posted December 13, 2022 I've never been able to get a stable clock above 825 either. The next step up is 847 but I can only get it to work until the xbox heats up and then it hard locks even with 100% fan speed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get this: if you OC, and you don't patch the games, does it still break them??? Or if I OC to 825MHz would it actually help slowdown e.g. when playing PGR2 in 720p with a patched XBE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldasijs Posted December 14, 2022 Report Share Posted December 14, 2022 ooh yeah this is really nice, I have a 1.4 Ghz xbox that I need to downclock for certain games. This is much easier if I just need to run this app then to have multiple bios prepared. Only problem is that the tool is limited to 100 MHz FSB sadly. The code is not too complicated, just need to change the FSB limit to 60. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hastings298 Posted August 6, 2023 Report Share Posted August 6, 2023 Looks like a couple quality of life improvements right? Or am I missing anything. Maybe that NVCLK overclocking thing is new, I'm not sure what is new about this release other than a few UI updates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will make it a LOT easier and faster to test the upper limits of your CPU and GPU, although it would be godly if it included the memory splitting.
