This is probably the coolest thread I've found on this site. @Sono your overclocking tool is very cool, but how exactly do I use it to get higher than the default 99 FPS? My understanding of display timings is very basic (too basic). I can't exactly tell whether or not there is vignette/bloom/etc on the upper display due to the fact that it is blank in the software. My N3DSXL has an IPS upper display and a TN lower display. I am very willing to help you any way I can.

That's no good if the top screen is blank! Turn off that 3DS immediately!
The top screen should show a spinning Lenny text in a light blue background.

It's very hard to explain how to get higher than what I have set, as it requires a deep understanding of the display controller, and even I have difficulty understanding it, even though it's an ultra-basic CRT controller.

Alright. Since it seems the top panel can't be overclocked, I don't think I'll bother with trying to do it. Thanks.

    I wonder if they could get CPUs to run that hot then use the heat to power a steam turbine to power the CPUs....
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Good idea, or at least power the GPU
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's not the movies or games downloads that I would worry about, like breaking into networks, downloading encrypted things, spying on network traffic. I have seen so many "Top Secret" seals on files when I was a kid
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I was obsessed with finding UFOs, a surprising amount of US files where stashed on computers in other countries, China back in the early 90s omg sooo much
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea that crazy, I've never tried hack into anything, I just pirate, and my ISP have send me 3-4 letters, so had to VPN it

    Ship to ship communication software for the Navy although without access to the encrypting chips it was mostly useless
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I bet now a 4090 could probably crack it? Hmmm maybe not even back then I'm pretty sure they where using like 1024 bit encryption
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yayyy the one set finished 324GBs lol
