We need to figure out how to overclock the GPU

Here is my speed / linpack.

Elkay,

I noticed one thing with the voltages. When I use your overclock.sh to set max_rate and max_vsel, it doesn't appear to set the max_vsel. I have to use the setclock.sh to get it to take the value. See below.


$ su
# overclock.sh 1150000 72
# cat /proc/overclock/mpu_opps
mpu_opps[4] rate=1150000000 opp_id=4 vsel=66
mpu_opps[3] rate=800000000 opp_id=3 vsel=57
mpu_opps[2] rate=600000000 opp_id=2 vsel=44
mpu_opps[1] rate=300000000 opp_id=1 vsel=32
# setclock.sh 1150000 72
# cat /proc/overclock/mpu_opps
mpu_opps[4] rate=1150000000 opp_id=4 vsel=72
mpu_opps[3] rate=800000000 opp_id=3 vsel=57
mpu_opps[2] rate=600000000 opp_id=2 vsel=44
mpu_opps[1] rate=300000000 opp_id=1 vsel=32

I'm not seeing this problem. Strange. Are you using SetCPU?

 

[hijackerjack]

Im also seeing that. Which was probably why 1.235 ghz wasn't working. I just set the vsel to 80 using setclock.sh and it worked. Also, the setscale seems to only give a list of scaling to use but doesn't actually adjust frequencies. When i used setscale, my phone was stuck at 1ghz.

Elkay,

Have you created a startup script to load the module and settings at boot? Feeling pretty good at 1150000 / 72.

No random reboots yet in 10 minutes, knock on wood.

I wouldn't recommend doing that so quickly. Give it a few days. You could use /init.rc to run scripts automatically at boot. There's a lot in that file, though, so be VERY careful.

has anyone tried running below stock voltage?

has anyone tried running below stock voltage?

I've run a battery of tests on my DX today. I cannot get anything stable over 1.15ghz. However, the 1.15ghz will take low voltage for me.

I'm currently testing voltages lower than stock on my 1.15ghz slot. Stock 1.0ghz is vsel 66 from what I've seen in playing around.

Here is my current test voltage for 1.15ghz.

# cat mpu_opps
mpu_opps[4] rate=1150000000 opp_id=4 vsel=60
mpu_opps[3] rate=800000000 opp_id=3 vsel=57
mpu_opps[2] rate=600000000 opp_id=2 vsel=44
mpu_opps[1] rate=300000000 opp_id=1 vsel=32

Have you tried using set scale yet?

 

[Hilbe]

Not yet. I pushed a few values manually into the mpu_opps earlier today for testing, similar to how the setscaling.sh script is supposed to do. I was trying to get more than 4 slots, but couldn't get it to take a 5th or 6th slot. I'll try it once I've run this vsel for a bit.

I've tried using setscaling.sh with no success. It gives me the slots in setCPU but its stuck at 1.2 Ghz and wont let me scale down.

ive got my phone running stable 1.1 ghz and 65 vsel. would this mean i my battery life would about the same as if i was running stock?

That is my understanding.

I've got mine at 58 vsel with 1.15ghz and it seems stable. I'm going to keep dropping 2 or so vsels every hour until it gets unstable.

Quadrant 1313, Linpack 9.5.

im going to try 1.2ghz at 65 vsel. and keep trying to drop lower.

nvm 1.2ghz goes into turtle mode at 65 vsel
