There are no standard settings for overclocking and not all pis will handle the same amount of overclocking. It can add instability if not done properly. Overclocking is setting a hardware component to run faster than originally intended by the manufacturer. Setting the overclock bit can void your warranty.

The specific circumstances where the overclock bit is set are if force_turbo is set to 1 AND any of the over_voltage_* options are set to a value > 0. NOTE Setting any overclocking parameters to values other than those used by raspi-config may set a permanent bit within the SoC, making it possible to detect that your Pi has been overclocked. Back up your image before attempting to overclock.

An unstable overclock will lead to freezing, crashing and SD card corruption. Overclocking should only be attempted by advanced users who understand the risks. Hardware and ConfigurationĪ Raspberry Pi 3 or later model is highly suggested to maximize performance. However, listed below are several tweaks that can be made to your raspberry pi that will help maximize N64 performance and make many of the popular N64 titles playable. a desktop computer, modern mobile phone/tablet etc.). If you are looking for a more perfect N64 emulation experience you should seriously consider different hardware first (i.e. N64 emulation on the raspberry pi is difficult due to the pi's under powered GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) and lack of certain GPU features found in more modern devices.
