PS3 Project RSX Boost: Overclock your Retail PS3 RSX Speeds (ps3 cfw only)

I'm playing with it since our first tests, no issues,
Well so far then, you have the fastest PS3 on the planet. I can't do 800 without artifacting. I can boot 800/950. But it causes artifacts. I need someone here to figure out how to pump more voltage to these things. That would fully allow stable higher OCs. I hope some of these geniuses find a way. But yeah let us know how 850/1000 goes.
 
so if i go on ebay and look for a specific model for overclocking as much as i can what model should i go for?
The only ones you'll find are 2501As, they are everywhere. But they are great. At least for 700/900 OCs. 750/950 if you win the silicon lottery. None of these can actually do 1000 on the memory stable. I have 3 of these PS3s. And none can do 1000mhz without artifacts, or some form of instability in the system. But yeah 2501A or 2501B are you're to go to. Manufacture date seems to matter a bit. Late 2010 models, have likely hood of OCing higher. I have 2 November 2010 models. Both do 950 stable on the memory and only 1 of the 2 does 750 fully stable. My 3rd PS3 is July. And only does 700/900 stable. It's still very good honestly. 700/900 is already a massive uplift in performance over stock 500/650.

eBay doesn't seem to have those at all.

@JoeSapecudo is also using 800/1000

I'm having issues with MFW builder

Just tested with the _rebuilders and the patch tool failed

Oh i edited my last message, so it broke the mentions

@haxxxen @XDeltaOne

It's pretty easy to build an OC PUP of @Evilnat if you use mfw. Just add the 4.91 keys using the bat. I think it has them up to 4.89 in ps3keys, but the bat knows the keys above I think 4.25 are the same, so it will add the keys to the keys' files in ps3keys folder, then you select the ps3keys folder in mfw. After that select the input evilnat pup and choose an output, and select the lv1 OC you want. After, choose 4.xx cex tar as base. Then, build. Only flash if you have a flasher though. Be very careful obviously.


You also need to uncheck the two boxes that uses _rebuilders, otherwise it will brick the console, it's safe if you use OFW as base

I'll check real quick with that 850/1000. @LuanTeles , you might want to add your log.

Yeah but you both have very very very very Rare PS3 models. Seriously you can't find them online. They made sooo little of these, that you guys struck gold with them. 800/1000 must be blissful. I'm trying my hardest right now, to buy one, but can't find any listing online. And the issue is also you need 0D of 0C as a date code for it to be cfw like yours. Can you show me the sticker at the bottom of your PS3. I want to know more of what to expect. Cause somehow these models, just ship with 800/1000 stable RSX. Which I wish someone would do more research on. Cause those 2511a you guys have was only manufactured 1 single month. And that's January of 2011.

@LuanTeles , if you're feeling bold, I was able to build the 850/1000 pup. I unchecked both rebuilder boxes btw. https://www.mediafire.com/file/8br7l5920r37yjz/test.PUP_4.91.CEX-PS3UPDAT.zip/file

Can you provide 850/700 first? i think it would be better to see if it handles the 850 core.

If it works good we can jump to 850 + overclocked memory

I just talked to @JoeSapecudo and he will test the 850/700 when you upload it, his RSX is even newer than mine.
