GP32 How Fast Can You Get ? Gp32 Clockspeed Tester

[Azure]

Hmm...do you think I should ask Mash to set my voltage to that too?

EDIT: People who had the OC mod done by Mashmods, how fast can you get?

 

[DarkAeden]

where to set the cpu voltage washo???

 

[DrenchedInBlood]

*sighs*, if only they were made equally.

Where can I get this machine modified? I myself cannot perform the operation. Plus, how much will it cost? and will they take international orders?

Check out MashMods. I sent my GP32 to them a while back for the OC mod among other mods.

Now I'm all envious I was first jealous of all the people who were able to OC to 166, then I send my GP32 in so that I can do this too, now people are OCing to 200! My GP32 is being modded so that it can OC to 166, so the odds of me being able to OC that high are very small. I hope I don't miss out on a lot if/when emulators start supporting these higher speeds.

I wonder how much a 200MHz GP32 would go for? $_$

 

[DrenchedInBlood]

Don't tell me! 200 MHZ is something else? You mean after modifying my machine I still won't get 200?

What's the 200 modification? Is it similar to the 166? Do they simply change the uhh resistors?

Well thank you, for the website and the information. I really want to get my GP32 to level with the top standard to date, if that's 200 then 200 it is. I do realize I am falling prey to an obsession here.

EDIT: I can't find any 200 MHz Mod. I make another pathetic plea for help. So uh, help.

Interesting 8-button GBA. Can't they come up with something similar for the GP32?

 

[generalnmx]

Currently there is no one doing a mod to let the GP32 overclock to 200MHz. There was one guy doing a mod to let the GP32 overclock to 166MHz for GP32s that couldn't do that already.

You mean Mash, right?

You could try asking him if he could try and make your GP32 OC to 200, but I doubt he'll do it as the risk for messing up the GP32 during the mod would then be greater.

 

[Vimacs]

well, more power gives betetr overclocking, but you should not go higher than 1,94V maybe 2v may work but i would not go higher, i dont think that a gp that cant do 166 without mod can go to 200. but a 166mhz "out of the box" one could run with 200 with voltage mod.

and btw, the mod is first done by robbrown cobbleware.com

 

[generalnmx]

My new GP32 BLU goes up to 184MHz, neato. Old one wouldn't go past 166MHz.

might not answer your ? but recently gbax auctioned off a modded gp32 oc'd to 180mhz on ebay and winning bid end up being around 320$

i got a ? too :-D i know this prog tests and reports back what clock rate your gp32 can handle but how do u play games in that speed...just with an emu that has an option to play an oc'd speed or do u also need to mod it like the peeps do over at gbax?

 

[Azure]

Can only go to 166 on a modded FLU <_<

Thats from the opensnes9xgp source code.
I am not really that smart.
What would I have to do to add up to 220.
It seems like a lot of people (including me) want it.

 

[PinkSpider]

From my limited programming knowlege u would add a new case then add the perameters (they are available somewhere) dont ask when for haha. Yea.

case 200:
GpClockSpeedChange (200000000, 0x4b011, 3);
gp32_timermul=(67800*256/200000);
break;
}

not sure tho... im a n00b!

 

[diablo2]

thats what i was thinking too for the bottom part but the top part is a little confusing to me
especially how it ends with 133

 

[generalnmx]

My old overclocking tester (which isn't as accurate as mirko's) included a library which went up to 200MHz.

[diablo2]

how accurate is mr. mirkos compaired to yours?

It pushes the hardware more so it is more accurate for testing how high you will get with emulators etc. General's clockspeed tester will test how high the clock speed with go, but doesn't push other elements of the hardware, so isn't as accurate for seeing how high you could potentially get in emulators.

I wondering something...

My GP32 FLU I bought last month from lik-sang....

Out of the box it could overclock to 220 mhz...(yes i tried Mr Mirkos overclocktest...
For about 30 minutes and I got 83 without sound and 77 with sound...


And a last thing my GP32 is not upmodded with the voltmod....



How is that i wondering???

There is almost unnoticable changes in the quality of the metal, etc. in the components that make up the GP32. These are things Gamepark cannot easily change unless they pump out tons of money for "the best quality components", and even then it's not assured. These are the exact same components, just a little higher quality so they can conduct better. So consider yourself very lucky
