[https://github.com/SonofUgly/PCSX-Reloaded/releases This modified build] of [[PCSX-Reloaded|PCSX-R]] as well as [http://ngemu.com/threads/pcsxr-pgxp.186369/ this fork] allow for overclocking, though most games will break past 1.5x clock speed. Recent builds of Beetle PSX (the libretro fork of Mednafen's PS1 core) also support overclocking, by way of removing timing penalties instead of increasing clock speed. EPSXe also natively supports overclocking up to 4x. Hydro Thunder benefits a lot from it, running at a constant 30 FPS without any other issues. |

− | Its SH-4 CPU can be overclocked from [https://www.retrorgb.com/easier-dreamcast-overclock-mod.html | + | Its SH-4 CPU can be overclocked from [200 MHz https://www.retrorgb.com/easier-dreamcast-overclock-mod.html] to either 220 MHz (which is safer) or [https://www.racketboy.com/retro/overclock-your-dreamcast 240 MHz] (which isn't recommended). Some games which may struggle the original console in heavier scenes (like Soldier of Fortune) or don't run at full speed (like Sega Rally which runs at 55 vblanks/sec instead of 60) will work smoother. It's not known whether some emulators support it but Sega Rally runs at full 60 vblanks/sec in [[Redream]]. |

In DSi and 3DS systems, it is possible to run classic DS games at higher clocks by the use of [[nds-bootstrap]]. This hypervisor has the option of running classic DS games in DSi mode, effectively overclocking the CPU from 67MHz to 133MHz. This change can remove slowdowns and improve framerate in some games, but can add instability in several others. | In DSi and 3DS systems, it is possible to run classic DS games at higher clocks by the use of [[nds-bootstrap]].
