znoxx Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Hi All! Is it possible to enable 1.8 Ghz on kernels 5.4.x (stable one) and 5.5-rc2 ? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 I can easily crash one of my test boards when clocking it to 1.8, while it works stable if limited lower. Perhaps speed can be achieved, but not with current DVFS/thermal settings. Since instability is only rasing spam & more questions and since "you" don't care to help us moderating forum, such experiment is out of the question. Perhaps we rather wait that 1.8Ghz become stable. In general: in case you want some changes to the code, prepare a patch https://github.com/armbian/build It will be accepted or denied - in this case.

Werner Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 If you interested in experimenting with higher clocks you may check these commits which have been removed/altered when switching to 5.4.x https://github.com/armbian/build/commit/b79b3558e7086eea038826fde605c5f765541401 https://github.com/armbian/build/commit/d11511ab2d1490a57c02e25a8eb324159de9ba79 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werner Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 sunxi-current has been patched to run on higher clocks. Build an image from master to give it a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A heat sink is mandatory if you want to run it at 1.6 - 1.8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A heat sink is mandatory if you want to run it at 1.6 - 1.8 I still believe that there are manufacturing discrepancies with this board since I never experienced significant throttling with my board(s) without any cooling whatsoever. Proper cooling is up to the end-user anyways. I added a kind of solution for that here:https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/1811 The downside is this should be documented somewhere useful.

Probably here (and in case of doubt all other H6 based boards) below the USB3 hint:https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-one-plus/#kernels-archive-all "H6 may throttle fast on full load. Installing a heatsink is adviced." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the whole it seems to do fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dolphs Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 I put a heatsink as listed here at Pine, left OrangePiOnePlus running for three days now ( idle ) with Kernel 5.6.2 and its temperature was 50-51. However I just put it now in a more open space and that saves immediately 10 degrees. I added screenshot in which the OpiOnePlus is receiving data , " iperf3 -s " ( 10 parr. threads ) and once sending data ( also 10 parr. threads ). Now things start to move towards 70 degrees once " armbianmonitor -z " is being executed As as side note it seems the H5 chip runs in idle mode at least 5 degrees lower as both boards are in same location On overall it might be interesting using this board as a VPN/ piHole server Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
