You might use the Titan's kernel which allows more granularity in choosing frequencies.

Do you guys know of any apps with a small footprint that would keep the processor going at 500 and back down when not necessary so thinking that I would get rid of the choppyness in reaction time.
thanks
queen beecon can be used for simple commands as "widgets"
the things on the right are clock settings that i can alter just by pressing them. the black ones at the top and bottom show me what is running at the time, high and low mhz and they update by clicking or when the desktop is refreshed.

Don't you guys think constant 500 Mhz (almost max frequenz with standard kernel) would be bad for the CPU?

but with the ideal settings my overclock is usually 850mhz this is running at the same voltage a stock n900 would use @ 500mhz.
"ideal" settings for min freq @ 500 is again a lower voltage than the default @ 250.
imho overclocking and undervolting if it works for you is pretty "safe" (if common sense is observed, funny thing about common sense tho, it aint that common.........)

Locking the processor at 500/550/600 will fry the device!!!
Don't lock it, the device knows what to do on its own.

what are you basing this claim on?
afak many ppl are now clocking the device, some to stooopid levels, i know it's yet early days but are you not a little surprised even at these silly 850+ levels there have been no failures?
locking the processor @ 600...... so not good even at default settings to use the device for long periods with the processor maxed out??
so where do you draw the line? don't use the device at all for fear of shortening its life span somewhat??
i know my phone battery when idling is now stupidly loooong lasting, on default is was terrible....so more power was being used @ default idle, would this not be worse for the device also?

250-900 with ideal voltages should be the best compromise.
