    Get back the old Black XMB ?

    i thought it was just me but I have the same problem where the first sound that plays on cold boot is very low in the mix compared to the others. I was left a bit unsatisfied when I installed the files for the og coldboot a while back. The black XMB and game boot work fine though

    It’s interesting, while I was going through the clock values to see my console’s limit I felt like at some point the improvements started to become negligible. It soon became just a numbers game, seeing if I could hit a frame peak at a certain point in X game. I recall playing Black Flag at...

    @RIP-Felix hey, i'm trying to find the FAB ID from the lv1 dump but I'm lost once I open it in HxD like you said. I try searching for my clock speed but it doesn't show up. Might be doing something wrong...

    How is it compared to a 900+/900+? I’m curious if it’d be more beneficial to use a modest core with a higher memory than trying to push both evenly.

    What are your temperatures like and what fan settings do you use?

    It varies, you’ll have to test and make your way up the OC values. 25XX models tend to handle higher overclocks. Some games that are being used to test are Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, Bioshock Infinite, Crysis, God of War: Ascension, The Last of Us and Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance among...

    Does it matter the beta for the pup files? I’m still testing with beta 5 which I’ve downloaded all the files for. also, I think I read someone said they experienced a black screen from a too high OC and they quickly pulled the plug and were able to go into recovery mode before it could get any...

    maybe CXD5300 is 25XX, CXD5301 is 30XX and CXD5302 is super slims? Perhaps 2501B models could potentially have 5301. also is that a unopan reference?

    I understand not everyone is going to fully comprehend what is being discussed in this thread, particularly about the mfwbuilder. I simply wanted to let you know there are politer ways to go about asking for help if you are looking for it rather than demanding people to do things for you.

    you need to chill with the demands bro. The Internet is filled with resources if you really want to learn how to do something. His response wasn’t for you either way. I get we’re all excited for the advancements with this overclock but take it easy. They put in the time to get to where we are now.

    did you open up the console to check the GPU model number? Hoping my 2501a can reach similar numbers.

    I think it’s because digital PS2 games have smoothing forced on so maybe having it off in game settings messes with the console.

    I think once anyone reaches 900 memory, the next step should be 925. Hopefully that would show minor glitches/artifacts and prevent users from attempting 950 at all which could potentially be too big of a jump for some consoles to handle. @cha0shacker could you please add the /925 and /975...

    no worries! I appreciate the reply anyhow. Played some Bioshock infinite on 650/800 yesterday. Still need to buy some of the more GPU-intensive games to test out thoroughly and I’ll share my results in the future
