aca 1221 trial

Dahman · 03 November 2015, 12:44

Hi, I wanted to test overclocking on my aca 1221, before I buy the license, but using the trial only gave me 63 MB but CPU clock didn't change to 28Mhz. Can you advise want I'm missing?

You need to use the ACAClock tool to set the clock speed, it doesn't automatically run at the overclocked speed - presumably in case it's unstable and you're not able to regain control of the card. I don't have one myself so I don't know the syntax, but it looks like you set the memory bus divider value with ACAClock - a divider of 3 gives you 28MHz, and 4 gives you 21MHz.

It's something like: Acaclock S 3

Can't remember off the top of my head. I'll look this evening at my SS and report back.

Open a new shell and type:

ACAclock S 3

Hit enter and that should set your clock to 28mhz. Only until you restart though. You have to have that line in your startup sequence for it to set it before each boot.

"C:ACAControl setspeed 3" for 28MHz.
