H2215- Fastest can overclock??

[Lukaino]

Hi there. Anyone know the fastest a H2215 can overclock?

[AnswerDude]

472MHz/236 bus speed is reported to be fairly stable, the 530MHz setting will work for some units.

From 400 to 472...does it REALLY make a noticable differance?

For day to day normal pocketpc operations, you probably won't see much improvement. But if you are running graphic intensive games or playing videos, increase in a few frame rates can make noticable visual difference. Overclock will however use more battery power and run it down sooner.

You say run it down sooner? Are you sure? Why do you say that? I thought that these CPUs were scalable to higher frequencies....

When the CPU is running at higher clock speed even though it's part of the design, it's still using more battery power. Some of these overclock utility provide autoscale function to scale back cpu speed when not needed to save battery.
