UncleScrooge said: Didn't those guys who measured the Wii U's CPU clock speed say something along the lines of "maybe it was simply downclocked for the menus?" What if the CPU *always* ran at 3.2 GHz in-game and Nintendo simply upped the *menu*-clockspeed for faster loading times? Is this possible? |
With the ridiculously low power draw of the WiiU, this seems rather unlikely. Especially when you look at how simple the cooling system is.
I don't doubt they could increase the clock speed, but this would have been designed from the start to give developers a boost later in the products life cycle. There is no way they could increase it 300% and keep the power draw low and the system cool enough.
