| shams said: This is really odd to me - and is the first time something like this has happened on any console/games device? Is it only set via the BIOS? Can games control this? Will games that require it, automatically upgrade the BIOS? What happens when a 333Mhz game tries to run on a 267Mhz PSP? It could be possible that the new PSP will always run at 333Mhz - but that could risk compatibility issues with older PSP devices... What about old games? Will the PSP detect that they run at 267Mhz, and switch back to a lower multiplier? This doesn't seem to me to be something that can be configured on the fly (BIOS change, and reset of device). Hmmm....

all PSPs can run at 333MHz, they just have the clock speed downscaled to boost battery life. This is just a firmware update that will unlock the clock prescaler and allow it to run at 333MHz for commericial games. The prescaler can be changed on the fly (my Pentium M laptop will dynamically change between 800MHz and 2GHz) but I doubt it will be necessary.
The new games that require it will simply require this version of the firmware, like games have always done on the PSP
Help! I'm stuck in a forum signature!
