Main CPU
The main SNES CPU can be overclocked. However it causes issues. With those who have tested it, the following issues occur:
- 4.1 MHz: Small amounts of sprite breakup occasionally; very little slowdown.
- 5.1 MHz: Sprite breakup; no slowdown
- 6.6 MHz: Color palette errors; sprites fail to render
- 7.6 MHz: Color palette errors; sprites fail to render. Freezes after a few minutes.[1]
There are no SNES emulators that allow for an overclocking option, likely because of those issues.
SFX chip
The SFX chip however can be overclocked with fewer issues on real hardware or emulation.
Snes9x-Next allows for SFX overclocking.
N64
Mupen64Plus - VI Refresh
PS2
PCSX2 - VU Cycle Stealing allows for increased GPU performance at the cost of CPU cycles.
Neo Geo
Final burn alpha. Issues???
Mega Drive
Can be overclocked leading to faster/smoother gameplay. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SVrElANZg2M
