So I've noticed no matter what kernel I use my gpu scores in geekbench are always atleast 3000 points under the average for the pixel xl, any thoughts on what could be causing it? Maybe I just got a bad one?
Having the same issue scoring around 3000 when the average is 7000. Also really low multi core scores on cpu. Im thinking the battery is old. A new battery might resolve both of our problems. Does yours overheat as well?

Will it be possible?
From anyone in the know, are we far off from a CPU OC kernel?
why?! The battery life is mediocre as it is!
Undervolt/underclock could be useful tho.

the screen and the radios are what drain the battery the most.
overclocking won't make a big dent on battery life. but better clock speed management may actually improve battery life.
To answer the OP's question, It's inevitable. the chip is a TI-OMAP, and the original Droid came clocked at 550mhz but was a 600mhz chip. It was able to Overclock to 1.1-1.3GHz stable depending on the persons phone.
I'm not saying we'll see a 100% increase on the Nexus, but It's hard to imagine not getting past 1.6 GHz considering the chip is actually 1.5GHz.
i have setcpu and the lost rogue v1.3 and i what to put it at 1704 MHz but it freezes or reboots, so what could i do? what voltage?
You can try upping the voltage, not every phone will run at the highest speeds. Overclocking is luck of the draw, not every processor will react the same. My phone requires 1550mv @1.6 to be stable and 1.7 is not stable. There is no real advantage to running the processor this high anyways. 1.2-1.4 is the sweetspot, 1.2 does everything the phone needs to and you usually have room to underclock, to increase battery life and usability of the phone. Benchmarks can be fun but imo, stable phone @ lower voltage > semi-stable benchmark monster @ high voltage.

Agreed, I have tried all sorts of overclocking and always go back to 1.352 or 1.2 because of stability. Sure you can bump it up and get high benchmarks, but who cares it is just a number. I would much rather have lower numbers and a stable phone.
I am running New Senzation ROM with the Desparado Kernel and I am running smooth and blazing fast at 1600. I actually can run at 1704 but dont like to overclock to that speed for very long but havent had any crashes.

Wanna trade phones? I wonder if you could push it higher? I can get mine to run at 1.7, but it will eventually crash within a few minutes. 1.4 seemed to be the most stable (and got the best quadrants) , but I don't bother OC'ing anymore. The phone runs fine without it. I don't really ee the point. I do notice some lag hear and there at 1.6.
I almost always am in the 800mhz range and rarely does my phone jump to 1ghz and definately almost never hits 1.2ghz. Besides trying to get your phone to give you some meaningless number as far as the real world is concerned ( quads) there is zero reason to ever overclock THIS phone. This phone has better battery life than iPhone with a slightly higher clock which is awesome. It actually performs the best of any phone to date. People conatantly hate on apple so hard to the point that when apple actually does something thats honestly great people still see the cup half empty with them. Apple has some of the best battery life of any smart phone to date. It also is one of the smoothest UI's out. They are a smart company and have great hardware. The example i like and cheer them on for is there way of using there cpu in a certain way. They have a really beefy cpu and then they underclock it quite a bit so it just sips battery power. Yes apple doesnt actually multi task so its easier for them to achieve battery life this way easier and it requires more cpu to run our phones as they have REAL multi tasking but i use the same idea. I underclock my phone to run at 800mhz till i reach 80% cpu load then bump to 1ghz. I never have my phone shutter or lag. The GPU is a monster. I get sooo much more battery life out of it. Overclocking is nearly pointless as a daily driver on this phone. In the past with my HTC Eris and HTC Evo 4g i had to overclock as muCh as possibly due to lack of a powerfull CPU and GPU but this phone (just like iPhone) has more than enough muscle and should be under clock 200mhz with no ill effect at all. Thia phone truely is the first legit android device in my eyes because it has more than enough under the hood. Underclock 200mhz and undervolt -75 and this phone truely shines and comes out #1 phone today in ALL areas. Smoothest scroling, lagless and best battery life to date. I love this phone and my set up

Ahhh big wall of text hates!
I have a developer note 4, and I have noticed when ever going into twrp the cpu temp is quite high. Its usually around 50c just sitting there in twrp, if I install a rom then it jumps to around 77c is this normal?
I ran some benchmarks to see if possibly the phone is throttling. Antutu was a little lower than reviews, about 47000, instead of 49000.
Cfbench 40000 instead of 43000
Vellamo html 5 was pretty much the same as reviews
Vallamo metal was the same
quadrant slightly lower but not by much
the fact that it is fairly close in benchmarks leads me to think its not throttling a whole lot, but 77c is a pretty high temp, is everyone elses about this high when using twrp?

If you are running a custom kernel try the stock one to compare if you can. Maybe there is a tweak doing more harm than good. For what it's worth I'm on a retail edition. I ran Antutu this morning and scored 50300. I just installed CPU Temp and that says 31c with the phone at idle on my home screen.
Im typically at 31c if i run intense apps i might get into the 50-60s. I got 46985 on antutu i went to 67c during the test.
Hey Guys,
i have a problem with my Nexus 5X since weeks and now I think I have founded the problem. On daily usage, in games or in Benchmarks: the two big Cores are always stopped. Bit I don't know why. I have tested it with some Games, Geekbench and CPU-Z. Can anyone help me?
Thanks

The thermal throttle stops the big cores when they reach a certain temperature. It's "normal" behavior on this cpu.
But they are stopped all time. When I Power on the device and start a big game, when I wake up the device after a while and play a big game... ever! Temperatures are round about 55°C
If you're on one of the Android N Dev Previews then it is probably the well known bug that shuts the big cores off. If you're on Marshmallow then it is most likely thermal throttling. I think the big cores turn off at about 45C.
Okay. But why does my device heat up so fast? I have read a few Tests and the Processor never gets hotter then 42°C.

It's your use mostlikely, e.g. camera (, cpu intensive games, benchmarks etc) takes all the cpu power possible, that'll heat up your device into range of thermal throttling in no time, while one can browser normal websides for hours without any signifcant heat building up.
---
I think it's a general misunderstanding of how a big.little cluster cpu works. Those aren't 6 equal cores, the big ones are (most of the time) just there for short term boosts and otherwise drag down performance overall, especially when the cpu heats up. I can see a much higher use of the big cores e.g. when loading websides compared to gaming, where it comes down to how the game can run on the remaining cores (little ones) after a few minutes.
But the Cores shouldn't heat up after a few seconds, should they? And they are simply alsways off.
I have tested it with the Geekbench 3, Smash Hit and the Camera App. The results like the temperature and the clock Speed came from CPU-Z.
My Standard result of the Geekbench is 650 and 2500 points. The two big Cores are stopped and the temperature is round about 50°C
The Standard witch I have found in the Internet was 1300 and 3600 points. The temperature shoult be round about 42°C-44°C
My op3 has problem Idk what Even when battery is 39-40 soc throttles alot This is my geekbench scores But it is way worse in gaming
Pubg, fortnite lags alot
I think as it is not heating too much I think it may be the thermal issues as I had switched to leaked pie firmware (I didn't use the phone before I just bought it days ago) Soo Where can I get stock thermals or can anyone attach it?
Tbis is the score when battery is 33 and I don't remember about cpu and Gpu
This is the score with temperature in the screenshot
I guess its a software issue as on soo low temperatures it is throttling alot
