Can anyone provide evilnat 4.89 550/700mhz?
PS3 Project RSX Boost: Overclock your Retail PS3 RSX Speeds (ps3 cfw only)
Hi, English is not my native language. Thank you so much to zecoxao and all the people who made this possible. I'd like to try it on a PS3 Slim 2500. I have a question: how can I see the speeds of the RSX and the VRAM? (I'd like to see those speeds not only the temperature).
By the way, I have cleaned the PS3 and changed the thermal paste with Artic MX-4 before, but for this overclock, is necessary to delid? (PS3 Slim 2500, with fan control of webman MOD).

Use VshFpsCounter to see CPU/RSX clock speeds.
https://github.com/TheRouletteBoi/RouLetteVshMenu/releases/tag/fps-counter-2.6
The plugin is already included in webMAN MOD. Just press L3+R3 to show it.
The overclock puts more stress on RSX processor. The fan controller should be enough to keep the RSX temperature cool. Any extra maintenance like change thermal paste, delid, etc. is optional, but your console will be grateful if you do that too.

Wow this is so awesome, I just got into the PS3 Modding scene and exciting to see more development on the PS3. Great work!
Thank you! it worked (I just had to slightly edit the VshFpsCounter.yaml to show the speeds of CPU and GPU).
I have a question about the standard PS3 RSX speeds: reading about the PS3 specs I've seen that the RSX is 500 MHz, but also in other sources it says that is 550 MHz, so I wonder, are those RSX 550 MHz from the later PS3 models (Super Slim 4300) ? or does it mean that the PS3 works at 500 MHz, but sometimes can overclock itself to 550 MHz?
I read that the RSX is 550 MHz from techpowerup.

How did you get it to show? Mine won't show it even though it's set to On. It'll show CPU speed (3.2Ghz) but just temp under GPU

You have to edit the file called: VshFpsCounter.yaml to show the speeds of CPU and GPU + VRAM, open that file with a text editor and change:
showCpuInfo: On
showGpuInfo: On
showRAMInfo: On
You have to search for that file: VshFpsCounter.yaml
If you are using webMAN MOD, then according to its official gitHub page:
FPS Counter now can be customized editing /dev_hdd0/tmp/wm_res/VshFpsCounter.yaml
If you're not using webMan MOD, then I don't know where that file is and you would have to search on the installation instructions of RouLetteVshMenu (but I think it's easier just installing the latest webman Mod, because it already has it integrated, and besides webMan Mod is very useful).
Good luck!

Unfortunetly, it looks like both of those options are already set to on. I did change those, but they had no effect, however changing showRamInfo does. I made sure they are On and not on and the plugin runs fine. After a few seconds, it does show CPU speed, but never shows the speed of the GPU. Can Neither confirm or deny the overclock.

Ahh I see, yes, I did it just once, I was doubting if I turned on the showRAMInfo option, but it seems that I did, and yes, I noticed that it takes a few seconds to show the speeds, but for me it shows the speeds of RAM and GPU too. It should say on screen 600 and 750 MHz on the GPU info.
I think that where it says 600 it doesn't say MHz, but in 750 does, so check if maybe it says 600 somewhere (it should be on the same line of text on screen).

How can I customize the overlay?
I only want it to show the cpu and gpu temp and fps that's all
is it possible ?!

Install the latest webMAN MOD then use http://0/edit.ps3/dev_hdd0/wm_res/VshFpsCounter.yaml
Follow the instructions in the file then SAVE. You will see the changes the next time you load VshFpsCounter.
Code:
version: 1
overlay:
displayMode: XMB_GAME # Available options XMB_GAME, XMB, GAME
position: TOP_LEFT # Available options TOP_LEFT, TOP_RIGHT, BOTTOM_LEFT, BOTTOM_RIGHT
showFPS: On
showCpuInfo: On
showGpuInfo: On
showRamInfo: Off
showFanSpeed: On
showFirmware: On
showAppName: On
showClockSpeeds: On
temperatureType: BOTH # Available options BOTH, CELSIUS, FAHRENHEITIf you load the plugin through boot_plugins.txt (I do not recommend it) you have to the install the latest plugin 2.6

Hello, I did ps3 rsx acceleration, but some games do not open, freeze while playing, bugs occur, could it be because game developers wrote code at rsx old clock speeds? Is there a solution to this, is it possible to export rsx boost speeds to game files?

I followed what you said but still no effect
I put all the instructions manually (see photo)and save but nothing has changed ! any idea why

The file should be named: /dev_hdd0/tmp/wm_res/VshFpsCounter.yaml
The file name shown in the picture is all lower case.

There is not evidence.
The path is: /dev_hdd0/tmp/wm_res/VshFpsCounter.yaml
If you installed the latest webMAN, the config will show:
Code:
version: 2
overlay:
displayMode: XMB_GAME # Available options XMB_GAME, XMB, GAME
position: TOP_LEFT # Available options TOP_LEFT, TOP_RIGHT, BOTTOM_LEFT, BOTTOM_RIGHT
showFPS: On
showCpuInfo: On
showGpuInfo: On
showRamInfo: Off
showFanSpeed: On
showFirmware: On
showAppName: On
showClockSpeeds: On
temperatureType: BOTH # Available options BOTH, CELSIUS, FAHRENHEIT
textSize: 16.0You can edit the On/Off or the option next to # (check the possible values)
Use L3+R3 to enable/disable the FPS plugin.

thank you so much it did works finally
4.89_Evilnat_Fix_for_SD_display_by_sandungas_req_dev_blind_enabled.pkg
The package requires to write to dev_flash. The mount point "dev_blind" must be enabled to allow the replacement of the system files.
Did you enable dev_blind in CFW Tools or multiMAN before install?
