PS3 Project RSX Boost: Overclock your Retail PS3 RSX Speeds (ps3 cfw only)

I can only communicate through translation. You still helped me a lot. I see you like to help. I'm sorry about the situation you're experiencing. I hope you feel better. Thank you very much again.
My dev friend is going to test building mania (hasn't built it in a while) with his current environ.sh, the one I used. I upgraded the compiler to gcc 14.2.0, and that didn't make a difference. We shall see.

He uses hardware. He's not sure what's wrong yet, but he got a black screen, so I guess I'm not the only person having trouble with his fork. That is a little comforting in a way.
 
Successful :) the rsx temperature are so good from 67 on xmb is now 57 on Syscon 25% :p should i try 100/400??? This doesn't seems impossible if we are so close

If you want to get lower temperatures,you want to reduce the voltage not the frequency.
 
heh, if you're feeling lucky, I could change those frequencies to 50/400. it will likely work at this point, but it will probably be slow as hell in the xmb, I'd imagine, which probably isn't ideal if just playing ps2 games in order to reduce temps. those games may have fps issues.

Won't this cause any problems?Now have better ways to lower the temperature.
 
I don't know, but he's gone down to 100/400. there seems to be a bug with vram frequencies to where it doesn't change, so changing it to 400 or others work fine. I seem to have a 50/400 already: https://www.mediafire.com/file/vcel7yfy550hkmd/test-50-400.PUP_4.91.CEX-PS3UPDAT.zip/file

yes, but we've warned him. he should be able to recover if something goes wrong, even with the recovery mode or possibly or an e3. @Mitsu™ was afraid of anything below 300, but this shows it's possible, but I'm sure the xmb is sluggish. I think the purpose is if you want the ps3 to play only ps2 games as the temps go up there with it.

Lowering the frequencies does affect the temperature. Additionally, consider this: lower frequencies might allow for further voltage reduction, leading to even greater temperature decreases !
This still needs to be tested on a FAT model... something I unfortunately don't have.
Otherwise, I would try it instantly, at least for science and fun haha !

The XMB isn't even sluggish for me. If you have the waves in the background, the framerate might drop to 30 or even 20 FPS. However, with a static background, I'm still at 60 FPS, and navigating the XMB remains smooth.
50MHz core seems risky to me, though (at least without a flasher) :')

I have the OG Phat which I have under voltage and they have turned great, the RSX less than 60 degrees fan at 28% and that is a stock frequencies.room temp 20c.

unfortunately, I don't know what those temps translate to, but I think 60 degrees C is 140 degrees F. sorry, I'm American.
 
those are good temps.
Yes, they don't run hot, and if you're reducing the frequency for the purpose of lowering the temperature, I'd personally recommend lowering the voltage.
