[Q] Overclocking the tegra gpu - Acer Iconia A500

just want to know if it can be done without using a custom rom, I'm using Acer stock pics, with ez kernel + I/o patch. can of the CPU to 1.5 but not gpu, ideas?
was using tegraowners v170 with let's u clock both CPU and gpu, but its wank for games, nova 3 and mc3 run like **** with it.

Adreno 200 GPU Overclock

Hi, I have a question!
I'm absolutely happy with my HD2 but I'd like something that the performance increases.
Is there a possibility to overclock the GPU? Cpu is yes to either 1.2 GHz or 1.5 GHz but the power play in is not very noticeable so I would appreciate if you could overclock the gpu order to get more performance out there.!
know her as a possibility?
would answer me happy!
there is an app on the market that allows for GPU overclocking , i didnt use it personally just search overclock in the market and look at the different results . I have no problem with the performance of CPU overclocking , i always thought the CPU was the one in charge of graphics rendering .
Isn't it SOC? As you overclock cpu gpu is overclocked also?

Good point . But couldn't that lead to more problems ? Too high of gpu could cause failure in stability but the CPU can handle the high oc ?

yea i really wouldnt recommend touching that, as far i remember we are already running diff os's that stretch are gpu and cpu with hacks and kernels etc....

GPU overclock kernel for ICS

If the SGX540 in P1000 can be overclocked to 370MHz, the performance of it can be highly improved like in Overcome Kernel.
(Can be showed in Quadrant Standard Edition. When it is in 370 MHz, the fps in the graphic animation of DNA can be promoted to 60fps. And got no lagging in anything. The speed(smoothness is nearly reached S2 which is official 2.3.6)
But however, it doesn't seem that any ICS supporting kernel can set the clock of GPU.
I am sorry that my English is not good enough to represent my idea, but I hope you can get what I am talking about.
And the most reason I want it to be real is that the potential of P1000 is quite big and in fact it is quite good!
PS Antutu SetCPU app can set GPU clock in Overcome Kernel.
Dang, I never knew that our GPU can be overclocked ^^
since this tab is getting old, maybe its time to overclock the gpu also?
Personally I'm agree with this
Probs a little off topic, (also to bump this up a bit)
But the Gnex which uses the same GPU can be overclocked to 512Mhz (Stock is 300 something I think), improvement seems noticeable in apps and in nenamark, you go from 27-28ish FPS to 31-32.
It would really help the tab, it seems to show age now (which makes me lust over a 7.7......)
What I knew is the potential of SGX540 in GNexus and GT are different.
GT one is 200MHz and GNexus one is 374MHz.
In Overcome Kernel w/ GT, the clock of SGX540 can be set to 370~38X Mhz w/ no crush but when it is 400MHz , the machine is seemed to be lagged.
The benchmark in Overcome 4.1 plus Overcome Kernel 4.0 can be promoted over the GT 7.7 (of course the mark doesn't represent the real using experience but let's just look at the 3D mark)

Haha, yea I know they have different potentials Just that I thought I'd let you guys know how much better overclocking the GPU would be.
I think its worth it, there is little impact on battery life, but the improvements in apps and usage are noticeable.

I think the battery usage for extra cost of GPU is not as high as CPU.
It is being a great difference if we compared the overclocking for either CPU and GPU.
The consumption of GPU is low and it won't make the device hot as CPU overclocking.
And the temperature can keep around 35 to 36 degree Celsius under a room temperature 20 Degree Celsius.
The result screenshot I have posted is undergoing CPU overclocked (1.4GHz) plus GPU overclocked(370MHz) w/ overcome kernel and rom.
Success!!!

Hello, i have been trying to implement LiveOC into humberos's kernel and it is a success
LiveOC
This allows us to modify the bus speed which increase both the cpu and gpu clock at the same time using an app called NStools
i have only been using this for a day now and it seems to be working very well
please report back any bugs thank you,
BTW i will post the settings i have used in NStools and this kernel is for the latest MTD build
Link: http://www.4shared.com/file/216rF_WJ/boot.html?
My settings:
Governor: smartassV2
min CPU freq: 200MHz (240MHz after applying OC Value)
Max CPU freq: 1000MHz (1200MHz after applying OC Value)
OC target low: 200MHz
OC target high: 1000MHz
OC Value: 120%

I'll give that a try when I get home (or maybe a few days later). So which ICS rom did you try this on?
EDIT: In terms of quadrant (which I know can be a bit volatile... but a nice way/quick way to see differences), ICS gets a lower mem score :< 3d is slightly lower, 2d is about double (I suspect thats forcing 2d rendering). This is comparing the gtab score in quadrant, I haven't used GB on my tab for a longgg time...)

This kernel is one i did 2 months ago and since then it has been updated. the kernel is in my most recent ROM

thanks for the information
as a newbie, i just thought another aokp by stimpz0r is identical
there is a strange point which is the fc of the camera while the shutter sound is closed, but it works while enabling the shutter sound
It is a great rom and thank you for your great work

You need a custom kernel and rom. I suggest tegra owners i have mine clocked to 1600mhz

Tegrak Ultimate OC/UV & GT-P6800

is working without any problems with stock ics kernel
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tegrak.overclock.ultimate
OC up to 1600mhz, mali gpu up to 400mhz.
but i prefer to use it for UV, because it is already fast enough with stock clocks

[Q] About Performance From OC'ing Kernels.

Okay I have been debating on which kernel to use for the CM10 ROM I use, some of them like m-kernel support CPU/GPU OC'ing up to like 1.7GHz then other kernels like franco support the same, but don't allow an OC above stock. How much performance gain for sacrifice of battery life do you truly get from OC'ing your CPU to a higher frequency, compared to just overclocking your GPU?
I can't notice a big difference in my use with the OC CPU . The GPU OC is more noticeable for me. I run trinity kernel at 1150 CPU 446 gpu and it runs great.

I run motley plus a10 and I do notice faster installs on apps. If you want numbers flash a kernel and run it through quadrants benchmarks

I'd use something like AnTuTu over Quadrant just because I find it more reliable tbh.
