O/C GPU? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just kind of curious if it's even possible to O/C the Nexus 5 GPU. My previous device was a Note 2 and that could be O/C'd twice its stock XD.

its possible. but you wont see a difference in performance(except more battery drain). we are limited in fps to 60fps. the nexus 4 gpu is/was overclocked as well, until people started to realize that it made no difference.

Fair enough.

Just an example.
But just as simms22 said, not visual advantage. I actually underclock to (potentially save power)

i underclock it slightly as well, 389mhz

Over clocking a GPU without a dedicated heatsink is just stupid.

I believe it may be in the kernel. I am running arcturus and it will set for 608 but not for 456, 312 or 216.

Im pretty sure that is the floor for voltages on the Xoom.
Dont think you can go any lower.

Sad day. I have my Atrix uv'd quite low. Is there anyway to work around it?

Unlikely.
You have a huge battery in there. Keep it at the floor.
The atrix doesn't have an 8000 mah battery in it
If you are looking to conserve battery then don't overclock the CPU/gpu and turn wireless off when needed.

[help]overclocking

what's the best setting for overclocking to 1400mhz without having reboot.
Raise voltages until it's stable. In rare cases, you may need to lower them. If none of this works, the SoC in your phone is too imperfect to clock that high (it wasn't intended to anyway).

Thanks for sharing those infos...
May i ask for some more?:
System details [rom, kernel]
What app is the one you use on this screenshot?
what theme do you use?
Battery life with this OC?
Thanks a lot
1. rom : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1399035
kernel : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1036996
2 hold volumen down button + power button for 2 secound in same time..
3. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1531222
4. i think it same as 1000 mhz "OC" , because i have same voltages for 1000 and 1320 mhz..
i meant what application are you using to set the voltages... sorry i wrote the question the wrong way

Highest benchmark score on nexus s..

What is the highest benchmark score Of the nexus s on antutu..
Mine goes to 3904..
But I've seen some devices on the antutu list which say 6000.
How can that be reached on the nexus s?

overclock , delete non-necessary part as more as possible, take more tweaks as possible ...
Pls specify which tweaks and Lil detail..
I am oc'ed at 1.46 ghz
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA
Using gingerbread, where there are kernel that allow oc over 1.6 ghz. All overclocking, can not use the phone in that condition.
Can you suggest changes on ics.. ??

Does someone have the answer please ? I'm in the same situation.
0, 1, 2, 3.
That's four. They start at 0, not 1. Come on guys. Think about it!

So we have to create 4 profiles ? One for each CPU

When I'm connected to my wifi I want to set my cpu into interactive Governor.

Setting 0 to a governor should change them all to the same one. Or so I think. If you want just make a task for each one and then let it call all of them.

Yeah you can do that. You should try setting 0 alone and seeing if it sets them all like it should. But that should work fine.

Thanks, but I don't know how to see each governor on each CPU.. I've tried with Franco's app but there's just the governor for all CPU.

How much does it effect battery life and performance?

Con: you can't check logs to see what happens when something goes wrong.

Nearly impossible to measure. Leave it disabled for a while and see if you notice a difference. Then post your findings here.

It seems that logcat does effect performance!

Benchmarks are not very accurate. You could have gotten that difference simply from re running the benchmark regardless of whether or not log cat was enabled or disabled. Hence why I said up top its almost impossible to measure.
