I think this is impressive. Current gen graphics on mobile.

Best cpu, control app for nexus 7?

Which cpu control app with profiles do you guys recommend for the tegra 3?
Setcpu works great on my dual core snapdragon but I don't know how it'll do with a quad.

System tuner. But its hard to get CPU clock to stay. Best to use a script for that

[Q] NOVA 3 on Nexus 7 working better now?

Anyone out there have NOVA 3 on their tablet and is it working better now? Is it playable? Is it enjoyable? Worth buying? Thanks!
I tried it a while back... still laggy as crap.

It's my understanding that Gameloft games are not optimized for our devices with multi-core processors.. I play it from time to time..isn't too bad..but should be better. Gameloft is a more apple-biased company with much less support for android.

I have in and with a different kernel and an overclocked GPU, of ran pretty good but still not as good as the iPad or Samsung tablets. I've heard its because the tegra GPU doesn't have as much raw power as the others, and it was developed for the iPad first so its just a really bad port to the nexus 7

[Q]. Galaxy SIII seems smoother and quicker than the Nexus 7

I have both and I expected the Nexus to be faster. But overall. The GSIII seems faster. Both are on stock. I'm wondering who else feels this way if they have this combination?

1.The Tegra 3 processor in Nexus 7 is not as fast as Galaxy S3's Exynos 4412 quad core.
2.Nexus 7 runs on android 4.2.1,more resources consumed in the background thanks to the new features implemented by google.
3.Project butter is more of smoothness at a constant fps,the ui does not perform at high frames.
I believe it is due to 4.2/4.2.1 more than because of the processor. 4.1.1/4.1.2 were really fast and smooth....
Also, 2gb of ram helps make things faster.

But 2GB RAM is only in the U.S/N.America versions of the S3 that run Snapdragon dual core processors. The Euro Exynos S3's that run quad core have 1GB RAM.
My Evo 4G LTE is faster than my Nexus too, in terms of UI.
Well, the GSIII is also twice the price? Be happy that you have 2 decent android devices

I have both devices, but SGS3 is not stock anymore (stock kernel, though - so far). I guess it's greater fluidity and responsiveness is somewhat expected. What I notice a lot is screen density difference (GS3>N7, ofc), particularly on text. I also enjoy AMOLED saturated colours, let them be false, I don't care. GS3 is awesome, and was way more expensive where and when I got it then Nexus 7, so I guess it's only fair.

GPU under clocking

UI still runs super smooth at 128MHz, so will setting it to this have any major positive effect on battery life? If not playing games I'm guessing u won't really need all that GPU power.

Well, in technical terms it *should* give you better battery life because it's reducing stress on a main hardware component so it doesn't have to work as hard (the harder it works, the more battery it takes). Same thing with the screen; the lower the brightness, the better the battery.

Wouldn't it have to work harder for longer because it can't do anything as fast? It isn't like if you set the GPU clock to 487mhz it runs at 487mhz all the time, so ramping up to 487mhz would allow it to finish whatever it is doing faster wouldn't it?

Then wouldn't it be the same with the CPU? When I answered I was thinking like how a CPU would work. I understand your thinking though.

Well I would like to add that the 540 sgx can power the 720P in the Galaxy Nexus... That dino is significantly weaker than the Adreno 320 even over clocked. I run 128 only and it works fine for games and even HD videos(YouTube). To confirm I tried Most wanted, dead trigger, temple run, riptide,etc and there weren't any issues(also toggled vSync). And if you use benchmarks like Epic cidel or antutu you'll see the frames are still pretty high.
So I'll say that 128 or even 200mhz is sufficient for this GPU and most purposes. However a good I/o scheduler and governor are still recommended.

I think another advantage if it runs what you want at a good frame rate is less heat.

{?} About MC4

Does anyone know why on my nexus 4 it shows the extra graphics/ effects but doesn't on my nexus 7?

GPU
its because the adreno 320 is a much better gpu then tegra 3 i think its about 2.5x stronger so if gameloft put max graphics on nexus 7 it would lag
Wrong by a long shot!!! Tegra is one of the best CPU's around, just gotta tweak it. Also for your answer try a different ROM and kernel. Should help!!

I own both a nexus 7 and N4 and the nexus 4 is a lot faster even with the n4 CPU @800 and n7 CPU @1500 its still faster than the n7 in graphics
EDIt: anyone with a brain knows S4Pro is a. much stronger soc than tegra 3 do you work for nvidia or something oh yeahs when's the last time nvidia released drivers that's right never
Is there any way to improve the graphics?

You can find modded APKs (I am not gonna link them) but 90% of the time they won't work. You can try editing some config file in the data directory. Dunno which though.
