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

[LuanTeles]

BioShock Infinite with unlocked framerate is pretty harsh on the RSX. Almost any game with unlocked FPS will do.

Metal Gear Rising and BioShock Infinite are enough?

Metal Gear Rising and BioShock Infinite are enough?

For starters, yes, both games are very RSX intensive. BS:Infinite especially. If you can share a 650/750 or 600/800 .PUP with me I'd be happy to help with testing. I have about 150 games laying around

Give me a PM

I throw in black ops II zombies in town. That absolutely punishes the whole graphics subsystem, memory and GPU.

@cha0shacker please, can you send him the files?

 

[Thimblewad]

@cha0shacker please, can you send him the files?

Please be aware, that I don't have a HW flasher so I'm willing to test safe clocks, 650/750 and 600/800 is enough for me right now :')
I can also share the version of Evilnat's CFW that I'm currently using because it's redacted.

Can you DM him the link to the onedrive? Im currently not at my PC.

That's fine I don't have one either. I'm just a mad scientist as verified by my psychiatrist.

This is the 650/800 version from Nathan?

Edit: I feel you, same here. I've always overclocked the sh*tz out of my PC :'D
Also: I'm already on 4.91, is 4.90 safe to flash over?

You can downgrade just fine if you have QA flags set to on

No, I dont have that version yet. These are all older 4.90 PEX based versions

I'm running regular CEX version with OC. Where can I set this?
GF is watching something on the TV so I can test this tomorrow

Setting it now, will give you a PM so we don't fill this thread for no reason

Double post accident. Sorry

no whitespaces in path are mandatory, when using mfwbuilder. besides, I just remembered, you have to copy the "ps3keys" folder, to the user root directory, cause old fail0verflow tools still expect this path for keys

I figured that might be a problem, but it built fine. I gave full privileges to user, which worked with keys. I used the bat to add keys to both keys and the hex/bin files. I think it works fine. No errors, no warnings, very easy

Overclock 650/750

650/800: https://www.mediafire.com/file/1509aijial7aoxp/test.PUP_4.91.CEX-PS3UPDAT.zip/file

I don't have a flasher or ps3 for that matter, so I hope someone can test. Disclaimer: make sure to have a flasher just in case. this is from evilnat 4.91 beta 4 pex btw. I assume cex is the tarballs to use.

Overclock 650/750

GOW Ascension

Crysis 3

Metal Gear Rising:

I have also installed the 650/750, will test BS:Infinite, og Crysis, NFSC and GT6. Looks stable ATM in NFSC

Just quick comparison so far

GOW Ascension in the first playable part.

Stock: 37
Default OC : 40~44
650/750: ~42~44
700/750: ~47~50
700/800: ~47~50 (Same thing as memory doesn't make difference here)

Whoah whoah, you already got 700/750 running? Damn you're fast, I'm still testing 650/750 :')

Edit: GTA IV, GT6, TLOU and NFSC tested on 650/750, PS3 Slim 2504, looking good so far
