Make your Nspire CX a rocket!
« on: January 14, 2012, 07:15:38 pm »
Remember Nover, a Ndless 2 program that lets you overclock your Nspire? It lets you increase the base, CPU and AHB bus speed by 20%.

Obviously, the CX also can be overclocked. We don't want to leave you without overclocking tools, so a version of Nover for Ndless 3.1 is in preparation. With this tool, the base CPU can be overclocked to 378 MHz, so is the CPU and the AHB bus to 189 MHz. Of course, your calculator would be unstable with the settings all maxed up. Calc84maniac reports a CPU speed of 246 MHz without the calc rebooting because it's too fast and an AHB speed of 90 MHz without the LCD and other stuff being screwed up. It's still a nice improvement over the original CPU speed of 132 MHZ and 66 MHz for the AHB.

This is pretty nice. Also I'm curious if the 246 MHz speed drains the battery fast? I remember on my regular Nspire Clickpad, if I played gbc4nspire for more than 30 minutes, my cheap batteries (from the dollar store) would be drained completely.

Note that nDoom is running perfectly without any overclocking.

So just imagine what kind of games we could play with a bit of overclocking ;)

Again, Starcraft :P

It would probably not fit on-calc, lol, though (unless you got rid of cinematics), and it would be a ridiculous amount of work to recode from no source. X.x

Nspire CX comes with a rechargeable battery, so you won't have to worry about buying new batteries at least. I haven't tested battery usage yet, though.

Yeah I know but if actual batteries lasted this short, I wonder what it will be with the Nspire one. I hope it doesn't last like 10 seconds D: O.O

Either way, still have to wait for Ndless.
More Lua games that are usually too slow will be playable :D
Others will be too fast and I will die in a second...

Or maybe it could run Crysis O.O

Anyway, awesome. All this stuff is being developed before Ndless 3 is even public, which makes me want it that much more ;D

Spoiler For IMPORTANT NEWS!:
Late last night, Quebec was invaded by a group calling themselves, "Omnimaga". Not much is known about these mysterious people except that they all carried calculators of some kind and they all seemed to converge on one house in particular. Experts estimate that the combined power of their fabled calculators is greater than all the worlds super computers put together. The group seems to be holding out in the home of a certain DJ_O, who the Omnimagians claim to be their founder. Such power has put the world at a standstill with everyone waiting to see what the Omnimagians will do...

Wait... This just in, the Omnimagians have sent the UN a list of demands that must be met or else the world will be "submitted to the wrath of Netham45's Lobster Army". Such demands include >9001 crates of peanuts, sacrificial blue lobsters, and a wide assortment of cherry flavored items. With such computing power stored in the hands of such people, we can only hope these demands are met.

In the wake of these events, we can only ask, Why? Why do these people make these demands, what caused them to gather, and what are their future plans...
