i thought about it, but which part exactly? the installation part or customization part
If possible would it be possible for the kip to load an ini file for overclocks that Ultraoverlay can edit?
I totally understand if you need to restart after an edit of course.

MTC is memory training. previously i used Micron documentation values, but changed to Nvidia values, which HOS and l4t uses. not much change
Thanks.In practice does it bring any new frequency or timing stability or same as the previous version?Also would I need to replace the previously configured kip for this update or can I keep the 1.7.0 one?

yeah true. i didn't do it yet because it was not my highest priority. still struggling to do proper mtc table scaling.
maybe in the future i will implement as ini customization

stability should be slightly increased because of added delays and loosened latencies.
you will need to redo timing customization

Why use ultrahand when simplemod manager can do the same for about 2 years?

@meha why does my switch CPU clock keep switching between 1785 MHz and 1020 MHz, even though, I have it disabled in the tesla menu? Its in handheld mode, and the clock changes multiple times a minute/second.. Also, I have not configured anything, every option is set to "do not override". I might need to uninstall the oc-suite, as I dont know if this is healthy for the CPU.. Thanks for any help :)

I'm trying to configure out switch-suite-oc on my Mariko, but I always end with "Fatal error Could not connect to sys-clk."
sysclkIpcSetProfiles [0x584] 0388-0002, all my files are up-to-date 1.8.0, using Atmosphère 1.5.4, ini file in hekate is correctly pointing to loader.kip, and generated a fresh loader.kip from the online configurator. I'm out of ideas...

It was my old Erista config.ini...
BTW I lost the bin lottery, my Mariko can't handle 2400 in RAM, only 2131 (default voltage) :(

My latency decrement variable used to be 3 on the previous version,now I see

Not recommended but you could experiment with changing the timing variables and voltage and that might make yours handle 2400

If the frequency reaches 1785Hz only during loading, then it's normal. This is within the official permissible limit

hello im new to this and im trying to overclock my mem to 1996mhz. I do have the option but every time I set it there when I checked my status monitor it only stayed in 1600mhz regardless of value i checked. I'm quite confused for details I have nintendo switch oled in 16.0.3 with atmosphere 1.5.3 modded with picofly.

Follow the instructions step by step, you need to add a line to the hekate configuration, that problem usually occurs because you don't do that step

I did add the hekate configuration however when I did it only boot my switch with blackscreen :(

this is what inside right now since I deleted the line since im having black screen after boot.

[config]
autoboot=1
autoboot_list=0
bootwait=3
backlight=100
noticker=0
autohosoff=2
autonogc=0
updater2p=1
bootprotect=0

The thing is, it also fluctuates while asleep, which is why I'm concerned. I don't know what's happening to cause my switch to boost in sleep mode..

A problem I've noticed with this is that it doesn't set any charge current limits like stock HOS when docked, which causes the battery to get significantly hotter than it should by default. This speeds up battery degradation.

Another is that RetroArch (homebrew) has its own option to set CPU clocks that doesn't work with OC suite but does under HOS. Wouldn't it be good to implement homebrew being able to override OC suite?

1. yeah i know about battery/charging issues in OCS. i tried to fix, but it needed a lot of rework because have to completely remove charging related code, so i didn't touch. maybe in future

2. i never used retroarch. so OCS completely breaks it?

It doesn't break it, RetroArch just has an option to set CPU clock speeds and it is unable to if OCS is being used. You can set CPU manually using OCS but it'd be nice if it honored requests from other homebrew to change clocks.

Using RetroArch as an applet homebrew, you can't make an OCS profile for it, it will inherit the profile of any app ID that is overridden by atmosphere.

It'd also be nice if OCS didn't load app ID profiles if the app is overridden by homebrew, if that's possible.

that is how sys-clk works. i can't do anything about override. why not make a forwarder

well i will check retroarch when i am free, but since nature of OCS is patching HOS to use normally unavailable clocks, i don't think it will be simple.
again, making a forwarder seems recommendable

    @BigOnYa, and since the default emulator is below average i downloaded some "replacements" like snes9x for snes games for example

    And I also have my ps3

    If you just want pi for emulation no point when Anbernic releases new shit every two seconds

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What's really cool about Pi's tho is you can have multiple SD cards with different OS on each SD card and change from say a gaming machine to a full fledged pc if wanted
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Plus all bios are set up and usually includes at least 128gbs or 64
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah but if your main goal is just to play n64 and GameCube you can save about $50 and have the portability option

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    True, but on 2 monitors at 4k. Its just want you want really, to each they own.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    For a kids aspect Anbernic would be the better option they'd probably melt over the price on a good 4k display

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    For that texasroo guy, I'd recommend the Spell and speak as his first system.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    So they buy a pi5 kit for about $150 and say a 28" 4k display probably looking around $400 total
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They'll be getting in the territory of portable Pcs anyway

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups

    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.
