Cant overclock Raspberry Pi B+ OpenELEC

[denis213]

Hi

Im trying to overclock my Raspberry Pi B+ but cant figure out why it doesnt work. I have OpenELEC on my SD card.

my settings in config looks like this:

# Overclock mode settings.
#
# default recommended values are: arm_freq | core_freq | sdram_freq | over_voltage
# no overclocking : 700 | 250 | 400 | 0
# mode 'Modest' : 800 | 300 | 400 | 0
# mode 'Medium' : 900 | 333 | 450 | 2
# mode 'High' : 950 | 450 | 450 | 6
# mode 'Turbo' : 1000 | 500 | 600 | 6
# mode 'Pi2' : 1000 | 500 | 500 | 2

# arm_freq=950
# core_freq=450
# sdram_freq=450
# over_voltage=6

# set to 'force_turbo=1' to disable dynamic overclocking (you can lose your warranty!)
force_turbo=0


I tried both force turbo 0 and 1 but in system info my Raspberry Pi still running at 700mhz.
I change those settings with notepad++ and ofcourse saved them before i put sd card in Raspberry Pi


Thanks for help

Maybe you should do some reading, MagPi could be a very educational.
You do not understand the meaning of # but you are trying to overclock, what will be your next problem when you crash the system ?

I can not be held responsible for any problems caused be removing the # from the following lines

Code: Select all

# Overclock mode settings.

# default recommended values are: arm_freq | core_freq | sdram_freq | over_voltage
# no overclocking : 700 | 250 | 400 | 0
# mode 'Modest' : 800 | 300 | 400 | 0
# mode 'Medium' : 900 | 333 | 450 | 2
# mode 'High' : 950 | 450 | 450 | 6
# mode 'Turbo' : 1000 | 500 | 600 | 6
# mode 'Pi2' : 1000 | 500 | 500 | 2

arm_freq=950
core_freq=450
sdram_freq=450
over_voltage=6

# set to 'force_turbo=1' to disable dynamic overclocking (you can lose your warranty!)
force_turbo=0
