I have Prime v1.6 and Netformer 1.5.
I turned it up to 1.4ghz and i ran the Quadrant benchmark, i got a 2031.
now im looking on some websites and they show they got over 4000?
what's with this? am i getting correct numbers or not?
I got 6123 benchmark, clocked at 1.6ghz

If your TF isn't fully stable at a certain clockspeed then performance of the device may be affected resulting in a lower benchmark result.
A lot of these benchmarks are flawed and can be hacked. I get 35xx at 1.5 GHz on Revolver 1.1.1

I just got my Zoom and I have had other tablets, so Im not totally new to rooting/etc and Ive been reading the Overclock thread in development and my quadrant scores at 1GHZ is 1722 and at 1500 (setcpu) its 2211. In the thread, people report 22xx at stock 1GHz speed and arouns 28xx with the overclock.
Any ideas why my scores are much lower?
Thanks
I wouldn't worry about Quadrant scores, ever.
If the Xoom is fast at tasks, it's fast at tasks, the end.
Good point ... Ill have to check it out in a few games and see how it goes.
Thanks
I agree that benchmarks in general and Quadrant specifically aren't what matters, but my Xoom wifi got 1892. So, scores can be all over the place.
My Xoom scores over 3000 at 1500mhz on my Xoom... it means nothing.
an oc'ed archos 101 running on ext4 at 1200mhz can reach 2900. but it's real world performance is far from what the xoom can do... excluding video playback - the archos can do high profile 720p with ac3 5.1.
The stock score, was that before or after setcpu? If it was after, then it must be on the MIN/MAX settings and/or the governor settings you're using. Mine scores 2300+ stock as well.. I have the 3G verizon version..

The lower score was with SetCPU on the stock 1GHz, and my second score was with SetCPU at 1500. At the 1500 settings I seem to be scoring what most do at stock, which is why I was curious.
Its quick overall, but to test a HEavy Flash Site I hit Disney.com with Dolphin and its a bit slow to load up, but I have to assume thats the Flash Issue.
I do love this Xoom (Wifi Version)

Try rebooting, running Quadrant from a fresh boot with nothing else running... also set the governor to 'Performance,' will likely boost your high score.
I'm currently running phoenix ultimate w/Tagrak.
It's OC'ed at 1.3 GHz ATM.
It has made a seeming performance change to my phone. But i want to take it further and OC to 1.5 or even 1.6 if possible. After hours of researching, the CPU in the Cappy is capable of running at 1.6 at the fastest.
Does anyone know any APP that will allow you to OC higher than 1.3 GHz? and has OC'ed higher than 1.3?
Thanks a bunch
What kernel are you running? AFAIK the only kernel that supports 1500/1600mhz is Onix, which is the kernel I'm running. Best OC experience I've gotten on the captivate was 1344. I was using Phoenix with the Paragon 1344 kernel.
Once you get Onix, voltage control will let you OC to 1600, but you might not even be able to hit 1400 and stay on for more than 5 mins (my situation)
I'm pretty sure this should be in Q/A, no?
There is already a thread in this section (currently 4 posts down) about this topic.
I've been running a custom oc at 3200mhz stable for 3 days now.

no reason the chip cant do that running @ 3volts with dry ice or liquid nitrogen cooling

the kernel needs to support the different timing modes used. onix will allow up to 1600. to my experience nearly all phones go up to 1200 a vast majority to 1280-1300 im barely stable @1300 myself. but 1344-1400 is the limit with only a few exceptions. every chip is different and i have a feeling the earlier phones had less consistant manufacturing. samsung may also be cherry picking chips that clock better for the galaxy s 2 mini which is supposed to be a hummingbird clocked up to 1400 out of the box.
keep in mind that 30% overclock is significant. if i tried that on my pc it wouldn't run very long.
I can get mine stable at 1.4 using Onix kernel and Serendipity rom. I tried 1.5 and 1.6 but was not able to get it to run.
I've come to the conclusion that OC achieves very little... UV even less.

A ) im guessing not on the cheapo heatsink they sold you with the cpu unless it is one of those "black edition" something or other chips that are marketed towards overclockers
B) i dont see aftermarket heatsinks out there for cell phone processors

Just wondering. Is it at all possible to squeeze in an effective heat sink on the captivate? would be an interesting mod to have.
My Cappuccino can run at 1400 stable, but the extra 400 MHz didn't really make a difference.

hi all, i was just wondering, will OCing my captivate to 1.6 Ghz damage the CPU?
thanks!

Couple of things for you:
First, I doubt your device will run stable at 1.6 GHz. Most Galaxy S-type devices won't run stable above 1.4 GHz, and while some do, only a very lucky few can run at 1.6 GHz.
Second, yes, you can damage your CPU doing that. Higher clock speed = more heat generated & more time at higher voltages. That means more chance of doing physical hardware damage to your device.
That being said... you are *probably* not likely to do harm to your device if you overclock to 1.6 (and it manages to be stable) and you aren't running benchmarks 24/7.
I think the real question for you, is why would you want to run your device that fast? If you want high benchmark scores to impress your friends, just cheat Quadrant, way easier, and less chance of causing problems. If your device is so unresponsive at it's current speed, then find a different ROM/software setup.
1.6 GHz should never really be necessary.
oh okay, it hasnt actually arrived yet, i was thinking it would help running games meant for dual core procs.
thanks for the reply!

Take a look at Chainfire3d with the Nvidia module.
Long story short, all of the current "dual core" phones are running Tegra2. But Tegra2 GPU <= Hummingbird GPU.
Problem is, games optimized for the Tegra will have a harder time running on our PowerVR. Not because of graphics horsepower, but because of specific optimization done by the programmers.
Chainfire's driver deal should help with that, in fact there is a thread floating around here somewhere with all the files you need.
PS Don't worry about those dual cores phones beating up on your little Captivate. Once you get it rooted, loaded up with a custom ROM and kernel, and running Gingerbread, I think you'll find none of the competition comes close...
I tried 1.6 ghz once and it was like insta-freeze. I'm very stable at 1.4 though.

Is is possible for us to overclock our infuse to 2 Ghz? It's kind of lame that we are stuck at 1.6 Ghz when SGS i9000 are overclocking theirs to 1.7 Ghz and they have a weaker processor than us! Just wondering. Thanks!

We can get up to 1.8 Ghz last time I checked.

1.8 Ghz? How?
Excuse me, I should say you can get it to 1.8, but 1.6 is the the highest that's really stable. I seem to have read that may people have gotten 1.8 with few issues however.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
There was a kernel that reported 1.8 incorrectly.
I have looked at those 1.7 GHz kernels and there is some interesting development going on with voltages to make it more stable but it is a weird bastard conglomeration of clocks and those kernels have there own issues. The limiting factor it's not the quality of the CPU but that the multipliers are locked at no more than 8 times the buss speed. Overclocking beyond 1.6 means buss overclocking which causes all kings of issues that must be worked through often by under clocking other things. most infuses are perfectly stable at 1.6 with no special treatment like exists in those 1.7 kernels but heat can run away and cause crashes when using the cell and GPS radios. It would be cool to run some benchmarks on Miui with 1.7 GHz to see if you can break 5000 in quadrant but really it is only 6% more than what we have in a perfect stable form. Not to mention that the CPU is throttled and would rarely see that speed and tweaking the governor would probably do more for the user since going to 1.7 means compromises in other clocks and potential problems.
It's not a matter of possible but a matter of why?
And for the record the best experience I had with my captivate was on froyo with glitterballs' stream kernel which had some cool stuff going on with hardware acceleration running jfs lagfix at 800 mhz. If I could get some of that in a GB kernel that I could run at 600 or 800 mhz with the insane undervolt my CPU can tolerate I'd be in heaven. Battery life for days!
Maybe some other 701 users can verify.
I was under the assumption that the Tegra 3 in the 701 was supposed to be 1.3ghz. At least all the specs say so.
Just got mine yesterday, and SystemTunerPro and SetCpu show it to be 1.4ghz.
Did I miss something in all the marketing specs??? Or did Acer pull a "fast one"?
MD
I've seen conflicting specs on the 701. Some sites say 1.3, some say 1.4. Will be interesting to see what the other 701 owners confirm mate :good:
Tegra 3 can go one point up in hard conditions.
It is still 1.3 ghz
A Tegra 3 running at 1.2 ghz can go up to 1.3
The 1.6 ghz of the Infinity can go up to 1.7 ghz
Etc...

I can understand that in a sense. But was just surprised that the CPU is adjustable up to a set 1.4. Most devices that advertise a certain ghz, usually are set at that until you modify the kernel for OC/UV.
Thought the Infinity 700 3/4G was still slated to use the Qualcom S4 processor?
