[Q] How to overclock gpu? - Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey!
My question is actually in the thread.. My brand new nexus 10 seems to be lagging in playing 3d games. That's why I was wondering if I could overclcock the house a bit to make the whole thing smoother Thanks a lot!

It's lagging due to thermal throttling not GPU speed overclocking may make it worse

But the tablet is not even getting hot! Just a bit in the back but nothing compared to my gs3... Still do you know how to?

I don't own one but there are kernels that do it, look in development section
PS if I remember right I think the thermal throttle point is kinda low on the nexus 10

Overclocking isn't going to help. Try it if you want but you're just going to end up with more lag.
You need to underclock the CPU, undervolt the CPU and GPU, and also slightly raise the thermal throttle temperature to about 90 (from the stock 80).

OK, I'm gonna try that under clock to 1500?1600? And a - 50mv is fine?

Try to under volt as much as you can and I find even 1.2ghz more than sufficient. 1.5ghz might make you throttle.
This Exynos chip is a serious powerhouse.

Thermal throttling

Hey XDA friends,
I was testing my One today with some intense gaming and benchmarking. I noticed that Real Racing 3 was slowing down after some time of gaming. So I ran Antutu before and after my gaming session. My score before: 24567, my score after 20 minutes of Real Racing 3: 19945 !
Especially the GPU score was significantly lower in the second test. It seems that the One is throttling speed when reaching defined temperatures. There is a thermald.conf in /system/etc , but impossible for me to read out. A modified thermald.conf or a custom kernel should sort that out!

Mh.. we had a guys that ran a lot of taiji basemark runs (loop) and had no problem with throttling. Maybe Taiji is gpu only and real racing 2 needs gpu and cpu a lot. A bit worrying though.
Thermal throttling really is a big problem for S4 Pro. So S600 has to suffer it also, although HTC made a very thin copper cover inside for reducing the heat.

GPU tests don't make a significant stress on the system. The thermal throttling happens mostly when both CPU and GPU reaching the limit.
That's too bad... :-/
My Nexus 4 really suffered from thermal throttling, too. But a custom kernel by Franco with lowered voltages and a newly written thermal handling routine sorted that out, the SoC didn't become too hot and didn't throttle at all!
Can someone try running Stability Test (cpu+gpu test) to see at what temperature is throtled?
Re: HTC Flagship 2013 - HTC One - Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 600 - Mega Information Thread
May be an isolated issue and not with all devices?

I can hardly believe that this is an isolated issue! I'm pretty sure that the S600 has the same temperature handling routines as the S4 Pro. The presence of a thermald.conf in /system/etc/ shows that there are defined parameters for SoC throttling to protect the device.
If you're willing to test that, just give Real Racing 3 a go for about 30 minutes and run Antutu directly afterwards. Or run stability test for longer periods of time.
If this is the case, you would have thought Qualcomm would have at least attempted to sort out the thermal issue as seen in some S4 Pro handsets!.

Thanks, that and your signature were very helpful! My stock firmware was from O2 Germany which is reportedly older than the most recent stock EU firmware. I flashed mike's Revolution ROM right now which has a newer firmware base and possibly a newer kernel. Thermal throttling doesn't happen on Revolution HD!

Well that's reckless and dangerous.
There is thermal throttling for a reason, and it's set very aggressively for a reason.

Thermal throttling didnt steped in - but that doesnt mean that thermal throlltling isnt there. The change could come from the update to 1.28 (new driver for example). The same happened on the one x last year. There was an update that significantly reduced heat.

It gets a little less hot on the backside with the newer firmware base, I can confirm that.
it gets hot, it throttles. it's a safety measure. why do u complain?
so u want your phone to breach the heat threshold then the chip dies and then u're gonna say htc one sucks becoz components die?

Of course it's a safety measure, but in my opinion a smartphone shouldn't throttle due to normal usage. If the circumstances are abnormal (very hot summer temperatures, for example), throttling is okay and I'd welcome that to protect my valuable HTC. But while playing a game?
But there's no further reason for me to complain, because the newest firmware runs cool enough without throttling.
so in the latest firmware its not throttling? can you add this info to your OP?
What is the latest firmware? Is there a published changelog and do I need to go back to stock to get at it?

hello guys my question is ... im goign to get a S4 soon... but i want to know if the CPu can overclock? im goign to get the Quad-Core Version cuz the International Version is to expensive.. so i want to know if this NEW S600 CPU will be Overclockable? like the CPU of the Droid DNA?

Seriously guys. No matter how much we clock our s4's. We know that the real life result is actually what matters. I am not very happy to tell you guys that iphone5 with 2 cores runs smoother and opens apps faster than my s4. Specially the camera , dialer and gallery app. However when it comes to in app load times and raw processing, the s4 has the edge.
I am already having overheat issues on my i9500. Can't even think about over clocking it. Instead, I was think of some under clock.

If we talk about cpu temp then I can't tell you but even the battery temp reaches above 55 to 60 for some users. In real life usage. It gets too hot to place it against our ear for a call.

there is a theory by turgot, that increasing a faktor wont increase the outcome at a specific point anymore. therefore i would be really interested how your play handles games at that oc. not only a benchmark, something like a video where its possible to see occouring errors, if there are any
this is great work you did, and it may allows some modification to the play.yes im thinking about cooling..even if it wont be that portable anymore. thanks for your help
2.3GHz
I'm currently going where no developer would go before my customized kernel has 26 CPU frequinces all up and a max of 2.3GHz
But without the GPU overclock and a 8mb GPU memory vs Lupus and dooms 4mb
i cant go even more than 1.6ghz
Needed an extra cooler solution and an powerful battery, like Mugen 3600mAh, to maintain this level of OC for diary use. Would be amazing!

Wait, what? Lupus Kernel offers increased amount of VRAM?
IMHO this is perfectly fine if you don't care so much about the device, otherwise you would be crazy. OC'ng so high will eventually cause in-reversable damage. I know what your doing so no need for me to ask questions But even if its stable for you it wont be for others all depends on the chip and as we know each is different. Also even if people don't use 2.x ghz frequencies tend to jump to the highest for a mili second if even on boot, causing problems with the device actually booting.
Well just my 2 cents on OC'ing...

What about 2 cents on this VRAM apparently being doubled?
At the end of the day its not GMEM which is essentially like a processors cache. Our chip has 256kb of it. But the allocated VMEM, would upping it to 8MB provide any sort of performance increase?

Can you post some benchmarks for the CPU? And also tell us more about the VRAM... Did it make any difference?
I believe that the Xplay has good chances of reach 2.0GHZ, running fine, provided has an good thermal solution. In my test, the games run fine for some minutes, before start overheat. Needed of somebody to build an custom cooler, then, make some tests. In my opinion, the safe clock, for sure, is not only 1.6GHZ. Only for default cooler.

test it. it doesnt test as a 1.9 kernel no matter how hard you try, its not really 1.9ghz. a 1.9ghz clocked cpu, will test like a 1.9 ghz cpu, not a 1.7ghz cpu. there are other kernels that go to 1.944ghz also, they test like 1.944ghz. but that doesnt matter, most phones will not be able to run at a "real" 1.944ghz.

Its becuase it throttles down when benching, its cause the freq cant stay that high the whole time without risking damaging the board so it throttles down to lower "safer" freq. On real cpu on a computer it has fan speeds to go higher when the temp is to high but that solution is not possible for mobile soc.
franco probably belives that 1.7 is the best possible OC since the throttling wont be that high. I would say that he is right but i prefer the stock speed and never mess with OC on mobile soc. But thats just me
More than often to much OC gives the opposite effect and makes the phone slower because of all the throttling.

IMO Trinity is probably best for overclocking, but even it can only go up to 1836 MHz. Also, there are risks to OC as well--which ranges from overheating to red light of death to your phone spontaneously combusting. Just letting you know

[Q] Low GPU performance, could it be a faulty S4?

Hey guys.
I couldn't help but notice that in Antutu benchmark my gpu score was way lower than the stock S4, but also lower then HTC One too!
Some games were lagging too, but i'm not sure if the gpu is to blame here.
Anyway, in one day I tried oc on gpu, oc/uv on cpu, 4 different kernel, 2 TW roms, one GPE rom, CM10.2 rom, and in the end total wipe and flash latest stock rom with Odin.
Nothing worked!Gpu scores were still lower than what they were supposed to be?
Best case scenario my gpu was on par with HTC One, but after oc.
What is wrong with my S4??
Can you give me any advices?
Could the hot climate affect thermal throttling?
(Does the gpu even have thermal throttling?I thought only cpu had thermal throttling on the S4.)
I've attached a screenshot of my scores, take a look at how small the gpu (orange) bar is, compared to HTC One.
EDIT:
I put my device in the freezer for 5 minutes to get rid of the ambient temperature factor and after I tested again, 3d scores were normal.
Can ambient temperature really affect performance so much though?
Anyone, any ideas?

(Does the gpu even have thermal throttling?I thought only cpu had thermal throttling on the S4.)
I've attached a screenshot of my scores, take a look at how small the gpu (orange) bar is, compared to HTC One.
EDIT:
I put my device in the freezer for 5 minutes to get rid of the ambient temperature factor and after I tested again, 3d scores were normal.
Can ambient temperature really affect performance so much though?

definitely the performance will decrease if the GPU and CPU temperature increases its same like laptops and desktops when u play games on it it becomes hotter and the FPS drops when temperature increases and FPS increases when it temperature decreases
