Overclocking for everyday use...
 

hey i was wondering what would be the ideal mhz that everyone can overclock the N900 for daily use, meaning it should remain smooth and not place any stress on the processor, because continuous overclocked state can play hevock with the processor long time, so what would be an ideal frequency for us to use our N900?:confused::confused::confused:

Re: Overclocking for everyday use...
 

Clocking it at 805mhz is the safest with no side effects. This is actually not considered overclocking since the chip is meant to run at that frequency. Going above that is overclocking.

thank you for your reply :)

805MHz with smart reflex enabled.

Re: Overclocking for everyday use...
 

i've just set mine to 805MHz with smart reflex enabled and it rebooted, it's fine at 750MHz no reboots at all. is this just one of them chip things some chips will, some wont?

Re: Overclocking for everyday use...
 

Yep, some devices have great luck with it, some have bad luck with it. I get eventual reboots/corruption with SR enabled, no matter what the speed.

Re: Overclocking for everyday use...
 

that's harsh i'll count myself lucky then :)

Re: Overclocking for everyday use...
 

me too, both VDDs set to 1 and cpu clocks @ 805 MHz ;)

No issues so far...

Amusing to note that SmartReflex is a wontfix bug, with the option to be "fixed in Harmattan". How many times have we heard that?! Probably something to do with the dodgy BME etc.

@patlak, vi_ and other OCers
Just checking you're suggesting 805 as the max and 250 as the minimum, so when device is idle processor returns to 250? Or, are you suggesting fixing operating freq to 805MHz?

I have mine clocked at 500-805 starving with smartreflex on. I suggest setting the min at 500.
