Yep. Assembly has always been and will always be faster than BASIC.

174 I think. I wonder if those processors produces heat at high frequencies or if they're like ARM9 processors. This is a bit why I am a bit worried about what happens to the machine if the processor is running at 174 MHz for several minutes.

Code: [Select]
#include "iodefine.h"
void pll3(void) ;

void pll3(void) {

 CPG.WTCNT = 0x5a00 ;
 CPG.WTCSR = 0xa502 ;
 CPG.FRQCR.WORD = 0x8210 ;

}
This will set the processor to around 178 MHz, although programs will likely not be able to achieve a full 6x execution speed due to the fact that the data bus speed cannot be changed during runtime.

I don't know what will happen to the processor (other than higher heat production), but given that the feature is supported by the manufacturer, I'd hope that the appropriate cooling systems exist.

On the topic of Casio-BASIC, well the OS might not be able to handle 178 MHz. I'd only recommend it for Assembly programs.

It would probably also drain more battery power.

List of stuff I need to do before September:
1. Finish the Emulator of the Casio Prizm (in active development)
2. Finish the the SH3 asm IDE/assembler/linker program (in active development)
3. Create a partial Java virtual machine  for the Prizm (not started)
4. Create Axe for the Prizm with an Axe legacy mode (in planning phase)
5. Develop a large set of C and asm libraries for the Prizm (some progress)
6. Create an emulator of the 83+ for the Prizm (not started)
7. Create a well polished game that showcases the ability of the Casio Prizm (not started)

nice, but think about how you'd carry it around. it'd be so bulky that you couldn't fit it in a pocket anymore.

I could keep the pump, radiator, and resivor inside my backpack and  then  run a hose to my calc. that wouldn't look suspicous would it.  ;)

not at all. especially not if you're traveling at an airport. They put your backpack in a X-ray machine and find a bunch of tubes. they think it's a bomb. they arrest you, put you in guantanamo, etc.

You wouldnt even be allowed to take it through if teh security people didnt think it was a bomb, unless you could use it with < 100ml of coolant.

I don't mean necessarly heat damaging the processor, but rather the hardware surrounding it.

My friend once had a liquid cooled computer but it got throne away. :( >:( :banghead:  It had 2 gigs of memory and 2 cores.

And also howw many posts do i need before i can rate posts? :angel:
EDIT:i was'nt even trying to troll. i was supposed to quote  z80man but it thought that was not necessary.

I totally forgot how many, I think it was 20 or 50. It used to be 1 but we changed it due to abuse (people signing up just to rate every post down/up)

Just trying to make a suggestion here, but when the last post in a topic is over two weeks old it really is recomended  to post there because others may not see it. We call that necroposting.

Although necroposting is fine if you have something interesting to add to the convo.
