Is there any possibility of a GPU overclock for the Rhodium? Just wondering out of sheer curiosity, it seems like it would give the phone a performance bump.
A search would have led you to not one, but two programs available to overclock the Rhodium CPU. I don't think you can OC the GPU separate from the CPU. The thread can be found in the Apps subforum.
I don't mean to interject inappropriately, but I think he said he wants to overclock the GPU not the CPU.

Yeah, I edited my post.
Alright thanks. Does that mean that the GPU gets overclocked at the same time as the CPU when you use one of the OC programs?

The display benchmark is higher when OC, but I'm not sure that means the 2nd processor is OC. The TP2 has a dedicated graphics processor.

The benchmark is higher during OC because the CPU "picks up the slack," so to speak, as it compensates for the now slower GPU on graphics intensive programs.
To answer the original question, though, no, there is no way (currently) to overclock the GPU. You should certainly look into OC on the CPU, though as is speeds up everything, including animations and the like.

Hahaha I already do OC my phone to 787MHz. Wanted to know because I am a bit of a performance junkie.
If it helps, I tried clock_7x00.gpu=0xa99 for ****s and giggles in my startup.txt. 17.6fps in Neocore before, and 17.6 in Neocore after. doesn't look like you can do it.
Any of the devs want to chime in?
thanks thanks thanks

ok look. the diamonds processor is 525mhz eh. with this tool you can underclock it. you can do it to like 300mhz or 256mhz. the device runs some slower but the battery life will be better you understand it now?
//Nick
The simple explanation is:
Underclocking: Makes the processor run at a speed lower than it is designed/certified for.
Overclocking: Makes the processor run at a speed higher than it is designed/certified for.
Edit: forgot to say the reason you may want to underclock is to save battery power. You would overclock to improve performance.

not overburden it is a tip from me to you / nu i-l suprasolicita este un sfat din partea mea pentru tine
underclocked
Underclocking your phone will do no damage to it at all
You can run Photoshop on a PC with a 1Ghz CPU and on a PC with a 3Ghz CPU
No damage done to the slower CPU, just not as fast
Keep in mind that this has close to NO effect at all when the phone is sleeping.
So, unless you're constantly using your phone - and you don't need the speed - there's no need for this!
im trying to code an app that will dynamically adjust clock speed depending on cpu load. so far i got it to take the cpu to 200mhz if cpu usage is under 50%.
i need more work to code in more clock states and tune the clock triggering thresholds.
I'm having some trouble with GPU performance with my Epic 4g on stock EC05 with the Genocide 2.0 kernel.
From my research I conclude that I should be getting ~45-50 fps in nenamark1 v1.6 at stock clocks.
My device can only push out 38fps at 1000mhz and 40fps at 1300mhz - something is wrong here.
I have tried the Syndicate frozen 1.2 rom with the Genocide kernel and achieved the same results. I have since gone back to stock rom.
Does any one have any ideas as to why I am getting such low scores.
yeah i tried on srf 1.2 and actually got 30.3.
ok srf 1.2 oc'ed to 1.4. are you sure your actually overclocking? download a program called cpuspy and see if your actually hitting 1.3
edit: btw i odnt think its possible to get any where near those kind of fps without overclocking..

yes, 41.5 fps max at 1.3ghz Something is wrong. shadow Guardian is fairly choppy as well.
My gpu is gimped...
Which Governor? If using "conservative" I don't think it tops 1000 or 1120 even if overclocked to 1400 unlsee you use the very first Voltage Control. Rodderik doesn't support the new Voltage Control or SetCPU. I brought this up to him a while back. He said to use the Voltage Control in the OP of his thread. Just trowing thoughts out there...
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
I only know how to change the governor with setcpu, I don't see a way to do it with voltage control.
My CPU is fine I think. SetCPU also works fine to change the governor. Running the short bench, the lowest result on stock was about 181 ms. Overclocked to 1.3ghz I got 136 ms.
I'm also getting great speed in CPU intensive applications like the n64 emulator n64oid. GPU limited apps like Shadow Guardian and Quake 3 aren't doing as well.
I wonder if my gpu is somehow on power save mode (if that's possible)
Can someone compare their setCPU short bench results to my score of 136 ms?

More or less what I'm getting. I doubt your gpu is gimped man. And your cpu is deeply integrated with your gpu. Don't think of it like a desktop setup think more like a laptop. Where the gpu is supplemented by the cpus power. 41-44 fps would be normal for 1.3 ghz. What I get at least.

I know a hell of a lot more about notebooks than I do about android phones, and even integrated graphics chips are independent from the CPU. Sure they may be manufactured on the same silicon with the cpu but they can be clocked independently (and even turned off).
The problem with the epic - and android by extension - is that you don't have direct access to the GPU or its driver. I've read that some kernels for certain phones can allow you to overclock the GPU; though none exist for the epic. An yes, I know about chainfire3d, and it's not really a 'driver'.
At least battery life is good for me...

What you said about graphics chips might be true.. But it still doesn't change what I said. The problem is not with your gpu. Its with your settings. You may prove me wrong, but what I said is that your gpu directly relies on your cpu. That's why you get a better framerate when you overclock more. Chainfire has nothing to do with this.. I'm sure you know this but its purpose is to fool games by converting "commands" for a certain gpu into another and downsampling textures, etc so that they can run more efficiently on our chips. Ask anybody else what they're getting on that bench and they'll tell you similar numbers at the clocks we discussed. Btw I'm not sure but I think the gpu drivers for our phones might be closed source. Which would explain why oc'ing our gpu would be impossible without custom ass drivers built from the ground up.

Hi,
is it possible to overclock the GNEX CPU to 1.5GHz and GPU to 512MHz with a rooted stock galaxy nexus?
Is there an app to do it?
Is it difficult to achieve 1.5GHz, I mean, do I need overvolt or every GNEX is able to achieve 1.5GHz?

Flash a kernel. Franco and Trinity can do 1.5ghz and 512mhz gpu.
I'm sure there are others too but I don't know for certain.

No, not with stock kernel.
not.some custom roms have built in the perofrmnce tab to control cpu speed.not all chips can hit 1,5 in normal conditions...personally i have to disable smart reflex and do undervolting.there are some devs that has a control app on market that control all of these aspects.reccomended.personally i use glados kernel+glados control app.

you need a custom kernel that is capable of overclocking that high. with the stock kernel you can not oc. so, its either a stock kernel or a custom kernel.. whats a third party kernel?

And to complete:

Not necessary to overvolt at 1.5Ghz,it depends of the kernel you will use and his settings.Mainly the voltage at 1.5Ghz.
And no,not every Gnex can run at 1.5Ghz,not all CPU are equal,some can and others can't...Same thing for the GPU overclock at 512Mhz some can and others can't...
Glados kernel and Air kernel can achieve a 1.5Ghz slot...
I think you should read more carefully the Dev section...
And if you want overclock you need an app,developer's application kernel like Glados,Franciscofranco and Morfic or a "generic" app like SetCpu,CPUTuner,System Tuner,etc...Because if I'm not wrong no kernel offer a 1.5Ghz at boot directly without an app or a script,so if you flash a custom kernel who allow a 1.5Ghz slot it will not start at 1.5Ghz and not running at 1.5Ghz currently (obviously ) without an intervention by the user...
some phones cant overclock no matter what you try, some cant undervolt no matter what. even though the hardware is the same, there are very many variations. but overall, id say a majority can overclock over 1.5ghz if you do it right
@simms22,sorry I don't understand what you mean,I edited my post but I never said the opposite...
I see,I forgot the also about Glados and Air kernel...And I know Trinity kernel,no worries...

The CPU silicon is what decides how much you can overclock. Some users have a beastly silicon that lets them overclock far beyond 1500 Mhz (to like 1800 Mhz) while some has a silicon that only lets you overclock slightly before giving in.

"Long is the way, and hard, that out of hell leads up to light."
I was wondering if it will be possible to overclock the gpu , because my cpu of my htc one v seems to be insanely good , even ran the max 2ghz for few hours , then restarted when i moved the app the storage card, so could be just sd card bug or something , but i switched it back to 1.8ghz(245mhz idle) , anyway my quadrant score is quite low because of the gpu , because i hit 4,1k cpu score at 2ghz , and have seen other phones being able to overclock the gpu.
Hope to see the gpu overclock able soon, will make this phone even better

This is a known issue with the Titanium kernel (KISS has e.g. the same values here as stock)
you can read about it in the kernel thread for this kernel
But I doubt that those benchmarks values make a noticable difference in daily usage
So if you need OC more then 1.5GHz just stay with Titanium.
If you think that I/O values will make your device slower use KISS kernel

it really depends, im using CM10 on 134-1024 Mhz. Most the games are smooth. Its safe to OC up to 1.4 GHz imo. 1.6 GHz and 1.8 GHz might damage over time and a lot of usage at max frequency
OC is always bad and dangerous, no matter what clocks you use.
Besides, OC doesn't give any major performance boost, you can barely see it.

It's not a matter of hearing it from someone. It will definitely happen if you overclock your phone since increasing the maximum frequency from the design limit will fry your phone.
