[Q] GPU Overclock

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

overclocking

Hello,
I know it's stupid but i would like to overclock my OneX, what kernel should I choose ?
Thank you.

only faux kernel betas allow OC
big warning OC is bad for the HOX given the thermal envelope
you are risking both you battery and processor if you OC
i know you are used to OC from other devices but those had headroom, it is not the case this time, T3 is operating at its max thermal capabilities on the HOX

You right, thank you.

It's not stupid and I'm dying to overclock my HOX also. Unfortunately Faux's kernels won't let me overclock on my phone, I'm going to name my first kid for whoever is the first to let us overclock this beast .

As already said it gets already hot enough, overclocking will kill it.
And I used to love overclocking on my Xperia Arc, overclocked it 60%
But I think the HOX isn't made for it

the snapdragon 2 on the Arc had a lot of headroom
the chipset is rated @ 1.5ghz stable!
not the case with T3 its milking the very maximum of the 40nm process
in other words Nvidia is OCing its T3 out of box because their chips are designed to survive massive amount of heat (sadly it doesnt mean the battery or other components would survive)
it is already Overclocked lol
sometimes you have to listen to the "science" of it and surrender

feel sorry for the kid

Why you need to overclock this beast. It is already an monster. Don't let it destroy.

It's fast enough already, leave the poor thing alone!
It's already running a fever!

I would actually like to underclock mine to keep heat down

I understand why people want to overclock. Why does someone tune a brand new sports car after all it is fast enough to reach the limit in no time.
What gets me is people posting "just leave it" "its fast enough". It's not your device and I'm sure they know its fast enough. Please those kinds of post really arnt needed.
As for the OC in faux's early (001bX) kernels overclocking was available although it was found there are 3 variants of the Tegra 3 SoC. And Asian variant, European and Australian variants. Each reacted differently to OC.
Taken from faux kerenel thread. Everything about OC'ing is from page 10~ to 45~ for anyone interested.
faux123 said:
WHOA! You have ANOTHER variant for Tegra3 Wow... how many variants are there... I will try to give you an OC build for your variant...
So far there are 3 Tegra3 variants:
Variant 1: European -- So far not OC capable (boot loops)
Variant 2: Australian -- Status unknown.. just reported...
Variant 3: Asian (Non-Australian) -- OC capable @ 1.70 GHz (very stable)

If you're wondering id love to have the capability of overclocking doesn't mean ill be overclocked 24/7
EDIT: @Kris underclocking is available on every kernel something like setcpu or sys tuner will be all you need. Although if your looking to keep heat down there's a thread on XDA about an app called corecontrol (not the one on play store) that can limit the Tegra 3 to 2 cores. Another thing too look at for reducing heat is undervolting. Sys tuner is also capable of this. Currently I believe faux's kernel is the only kernel with true UV control

I use Faux's kernels and even though I have the Asian one that supposedly can be overclocked to 1,700, mine maxes out at 1,500 just like all of the other ones. Still the Faux kernel upped my quadrant speed from 4,700 to 5,000 and seems quicker so I still use it daily. I'm still waiting for the first kernel that can be overclocked .

Only the early kernels had OC it was removed to avoid bootloops in the euro and aus tegra3's the 003bx kernels don't have oc ability

Will there be overclocking gpu support soon?

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

My can withstand the 2ghz constantly without overheat, but that is the cpu. The gpu is a different story.

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

PS: Regarding the original question

There you can read all about OCing the GPU
Common point at the end. They didnt found a way to do it

thanx for the reply, was just wondering about score , phone it selfs seems very fast and have no problems with it
ok so the gpu scales with cpu overclock then , must say ashalpt 6 plays very nicely

that guy did overclock hes gpu with 220 chip , maybe new ones can be overclocked only.

Sensation has a Snapdragon S3 One V has S2
regards max

i am pretty sure i saw an app called "Dual" something on the LG P990 threads and it had the option to overclock the gpu*
*if the kernel supports it

sorry for digging up old thread, but... are there now any chances for OCing GPU?

no we're only adreno 205. Only adreno 220/225 supports OC.

The new ones are Adreno 420, 330, 320, 305 etc.
on Snapdragon 400, 800, 600, s4 pro, other ones I forgot (805 for adreno 420?)

That's why I wrote "almost" so we have to wait for AdrenoBooster for ICS/JB

Snapdragon 820 Overclock

Is it possible to get our 820 soc overclocked with a custom kernel so it can compare to 821 chip?

Should work with Elemental-X but you could have figured that out by yourself
BTW: whats the point in overclocking on that phone? seriously...

I know that. The point is getting our phone's performance to a 821 levels. If it is possible

I think it's possible. According to Qualcomm, S821 is just a S820 overclocked.

I don't the bluesparks or elementalx are going to incorporate an OC due to not needed, u may be better off learning how to build one and do it ur self, unless one of them would make one for u to just test, not sure how hard it is just to insert an OC, i would ask them and see if they would

Snapdragon 636 an underclocked version of sd 660

Is Snapdragon 636 underclocked version of sd660 CPU specific in terms of architecture etc. As cpu-z app also show 636 as sd660 .
I am just curious to know that as i want to overclock it to sd660 clock speed .
If it is underclocked version then i guess there will be no risk of overclocking .
PS : please try to answer in simple language ?

I'm fairly sure GPU is hardware-locked so you won't be able to overclock it. The only thing you are able to overclock is the CPU but you would need a custom kernel.

I have done it
It doesn't heat nor consumes significant amount of battery just worried about cpu temp while playing pubgm

Overclocking is fine (CPU only tho), and rooting isn't hard aswell. I personally don't OC cause I don't need it, gpu oc would be cool. Gonna note that the original bettery lost 12% capacity in 1.5 months, replaced it myself. Maybe fast charging (15w)/ heavy usage hurt it don't know, but new battery is just fine, so factory battery is seems to be bad...
