Does overclocking the Vita actually do anything, well heres a release that may answer that question:
Like the PSP, the PSVita normally runs in an underclocked mode with a CPU frequency of 333MHz rather than 444MHz. However, the plugin LOLIcon manages to truly overclock the PSVita past 444MHz to 500MHz!
Unlike plugins like OclockVita (http://wololo.net/2017/01/01/oclock-vita-new-overclock-plugin/) and PSV VSH Menu (http://wololo.net/2018/07/24/psv-vsh-menu-v3-4-the-ultimate-fix-for-overclocking/), LOLIcon overclocks the PSVita’s CPU to 500MHz (or 494MHz according to Yifan Lu) which isn’t an officially supported frequency. On a more technical note, this true overclock was achieved by messing around with the direct registers which control the ARM CPU’s clock speeds.
LOLIcon also has a nice and easy-to-use menu with extra features!
Other than its overclocking ability which grants extra extra FPS in games/homebrew, it also has other features such as:
A menu reminiscent of PSV VSH Menu to manage the plugin’s settings
Configuration profiles for every game
An FPS counter
An X/O button swapper
More features are planned for the future which may make this the ultimate overclocking/in-game menu plugin!
