      @WODAK on the pi4, alrhough I haven't tried overclocking rhe GPU on this build. Legend is jumpy and Anniversary slows down when the screen is busy, eg on the second level near the waterfall.

      Currently running:
      Retropie 4.8.9 on a Pi Zero 2W (Overclock Settings: CPU 1400Mhz)
      ES-DE on a GMKtec K6 (Windows 11, 32GB RAM)

        True...mine is overclocked... as for the game play....I didn't complete any level ... just tired to play a little bit moving, running around, learning how to play :)...etc...maybe for 5 minutes each...and it didn't have any hickups or anything.

          @WODAK How high is your GPU overclocked?

            I've got mine realy high...but it really is stable...looks like I had luck on hardware... the highest temperature I got was 53 C ....:)

            over_voltage=6
            hdmi_enable_4kp60=1
            arm_freq=2100
            gpu_freq=800
            

            and my clock speeds:

            #Not running any emulators:
            core => frequency(1)=289709472
            v3d:=> frequency(46)=366358880
            arm => frequency(48)=2100515584
            
            #running emulators
            core => frequency(1)=549993152
            v3d:=> frequency(46)=799993664
            arm => frequency(48)=2100568320
            
            

            so the GPU is at 550 and v3d is at 800....GPU is as 2100...and I'm running on 1080p TV ...

            if you are trying to overclock...take it easy...use the bottom up method...and always CHECK your temperatures...

            not to forger...setting the cpu governor to performance...but setting it in run command (so setting it on only when game runs )

              @WODAK My CPU is at 2000. My GPU used to be set to 600 but the new firmware has lest me a little confused as to what is currently possible. It looks like only your v3d is set higher than any setting I have previously had.

                With the latest firmware you can go with GPU to 550...and V3D to as high as 850...you can set this parameters separatly as GPU and then the other parameters core_freq, h264_freq, isp_freq, and v3d_freq or all together as gpu_freq (gpu dosn't go above 500, only if u set hdmi_enable_4kp60=1 then you can go up to 550 HZ)...

                I know .... a little bit confusing ...:)

                  You mean core frequency doesn't go above 500

                      @mitu Thanks. I've just tried that. No change. I have since removed and reinstalled sixaxis just to be sure it was't that. I still can't see the PS3 pad on bluetooth.

                      That's strange - I just picked up a PS3 controller today and paired it without issues. Are you following all the steps explained in PS3 controller doc page ?

                      I installed the sixaxis driver, then started the BT dialog - with the PS3 plugged in - and followed the on-screen message to pair it.

                        @mitu Yes, that's how I have always connected my ps3 pad. I'm using ps3controller instead of sixaxis at the moment and having no issues.

                        Thanks.
