[DIGITAL FOUNDRY] Nintendo Switch "Overclocking"

[ENTERPRISE]

We know that Nintendo held back from implementing the full power of Nvidia's Tegra X1 in Switch - but what happens if we restore the full CPU and GPU clocks of the processor in a range of the most demanding Switch games? Rich checks out docked performance, with a handheld overclocking

 

Not overclocking as such but technically still taking the Tegra X1 past the limits imposed on it for the Switch. Interesting nonetheless.

That would be interesting, I would say it is possible with the software tools but not sure what hardware alterations you would need to make (if any). While of course you can OC the Tegra X1, does Nvidia actually gimp it ? Not looked into to be honest.
