PS3 Question re. CELL OC

[notameowcelot]

I've been doing a bit of research into overclocking the CELL, given that I already do it for the RSX on Super Slim consoles.

I just wanted to understand, is it technically feasible to alter CELL clocks using things like WebMAN or CFW in future, like the RSX? Or will it always be locked to the SYSCON given how it currently works?

Also, last I've read, the Super Slims and regular Slims still aren't properly overclocked yet, right? What's currently putting a stopper on that?

It's still a WIP as not all consoles can be overclocked yet.

Doing it through CFW would be dangerous and a brick risk. If you write values to syscon and reboot to an unstable value, you'd have no way of returning to stock without physical access to syscon.
