Hey guys, here s how to overclock your pi safely and make it very fast:
DO ONLY DO THIS WITH RASPBERRY PI 2+3!!!!! :!:
Just open a Terminal and type: sudo nano /boot/config.txt and copy the following( for your specific pi) lines and paste them into config.txt (at the end or somewhere else) but you can also search for the specific values in the config.txt and change them.
RaspberryPi 2:
gpu_mem_1024=128
arm_freq=1100
core_freq=500
sdram_freq=450
over_voltage=6
cma_lwm=16
cma_hwm=32
force_turbo=1
gpu_freq=300
RaspberryPi 3:
gpu_mem_1024=128
arm_freq=1260
core_freq=500
sdram_freq=500
over_voltage=6
cma_lwm=16
cma_hwm=32
force_turbo=1
gpu_freq=350
Then, when pasted press Cltr+O ; ENTER ; Cltr+X then type in Terminal sudo reboot
Thats it, enjoy the power ;)

Re: /////HOW TO MAKE YOUR PI VERY FAST\\\\\
I would not personally recommend this overclock, and it leaves only around 415 MB or so of SDRAM for the ARM/CPU... (gpu_mem=320)sprengerle wrote:Hey guys, here s how to overclock your pi safely and mak it very fast:

Have you actually tested this crazy overclock to see if it is even stable? Are you even cooling it?
For more info on cooling and stable overclocking, see:

Re: /////HOW TO MAKE YOUR PI VERY FAST\\\\\
I am cooling it and the temperature is around 60 degrees and the clock is the highest withe stable working OS 
(i tested it with Raspbian and Ubuntu Mate and the memory is much enough )

Re: /////HOW TO MAKE YOUR PI VERY FAST\\\\\
60C is up there, and I hope that is your "stress" temps. I can stress and run cpuburn at 50C all day, and idle at 26C. Normal temps for me, (like browsing with chromium at 17% CPU usage), are at 30C.sprengerle wrote:I am cooling it and the temperature is around 60 degrees and the clock is the highest withe stable working OS
I bet you are not even close to stable, I am curious to see if your extreme overclock is, or is not though.
Why should you care if your overclock is stable, or not?
Unstable overclocks can eventually lead to premature hardware failure, malfunctions, crashes and data loss, as well as sdcard corruption.
If your Pi3 should freeze up, or otherwise become unresponsive during tests, DO NOT remove power, instead reboot with 'alt'+"sysrq"+"b" ('sysrq' is also known as 'prtscr' key). Hard reboots (where you unplug power, then plug it back in again) can result in data corruption!
Heat is the number 1 killer, and the Pi3 runs hot even at stock. If you are gonna overclock, you need to properly cool, and keep those temps below the 80C threshold.
For a full battery of tests (e.g., sdbench, and memtester), see:
viewtopic.php?p=964852#p964852
ULTIMATE STRESS & OVERHEAT/COOLING TEST
Test is "PASSED" if you do not throttle back, or exceed 79C within a 15min span. Exceeding 79C, and overheating/throttling, (and especially a Pi3 crash) indicates a "FAILURE".
Code: Select all
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ssvb/cpuburn-arm/master/cpuburn-a53.S
gcc -o cpuburn-a53 cpuburn-a53.SCode: Select all
while true; do vcgencmd measure_clock arm; vcgencmd measure_temp; sleep 2; done& ./cpuburn-a53Run this 3 min benchmark test and post Gflops results (a "PASSED" test benching at 6 Gflops or higher indicates Pi3 stability (IF the same Gflop result can be achieved in multiple back to back test runs). On the otherhand, Pi3 crash, or "FAILED" test result, indicates instability):
note- After benchmark installation, temporarily set gpu_mem to 64, then reboot (or test may fail to run)
For comparison: A stock Pi3 at 1.2 GHz can pass at 6 Gflops (some stock Pi3's may require a slight power boost e.g., "over_voltage=1"). An overclocked Pi3 at 1.26 GHz can pass at around 6.6 Gflops

so, still waiting on passed Gflops results... if you fail, lockup/crash or otherwise are unable to run it, that would indicate your overclock is flawed/unstable.
restart pi3, and run:

WTF?
Re: /////HOW TO MAKE YOUR PI VERY FAST\\\\\
You may need to lower the gpu_mem to 64 for the test if you still can't run it after reboot due to your "configuration". The benchmark needs sdram (aka memory) to run the test .

Re: /////HOW TO MAKE YOUR PI VERY FAST\\\\\
FYI a stock Pi3 at 1.2 GHz scores approx 6 Gflops, and a stable overclocked Pi3 at 1.26 GHz, scores around 6.6 Gflops (with multiple runs all passing at around the same Gflops to indicate stability).
Tests that fail, or where Gflops are all over the place, or where in extreme cases, the Pi3 freezes or crashes, may be indictive of overclock instability or power/voltage issues. Unstable overclocks can eventually lead to premature hardware failure, malfunctions, crashes and data loss, as well as sdcard corruption.
For example; constant 6.6 Gflops after 3 back to back 'passed' tests N=8000, @1.26 GHz:

Re: /////HOW TO MAKE YOUR PI VERY FAST\\\\\
That one RPi will or will not run stable with certain overclock settings does not mean that another RPi will or will not.
Re: /////HOW TO MAKE YOUR PI VERY FAST\\\\\
+1
The RPi is tested to run at the default speeds. The variation in manufacture means that they will generally go somewhat faster if pushed. But every one is unique; some of them can be pushed a long way and some of them only a little.
Just because yours can be overclocked hard, doesn't mean it will work for everyone.

So that could be that my pi is stable with 1380mHz . because I tested it with a HD Youtube Video an that was during half an hour and at the end i only got 58°C
so you can Test your pi yourself and when it works stable, it's ok

You "tested" your 'extreme', (most likely unstable overclock), by "watching a 30 min HD youtube video", huh?sprengerle wrote:So that could be that my pi is stable with 1380mHz . because I tested it with a HD Youtube Video an that was during half an hour and at the end i only got 58°C

can somebody tell me if it's normal that the screen Freezes!!!!
Re: /////HOW TO MAKE YOUR PI VERY FAST\\\\\
No. You should not 'freeze' at all. The test takes around 1-2 min or so to complete (see screenshot). Sounds like you may have crashed as a result of an unstable overclock (my guess is over_voltage, or arm_freq is too high, or gpu_mem is too high (set gpu memory allocation to 48 for optimal results)).sprengerle wrote:is it normal that my screen freeces when running ./xhpl ?

I thought I explained all that previously (regarding freeze ups/crashes, etc). Did you not read the previous posts? I edited them, look them over again.
