========================================
Hello everyone.
Do you know if (and when) Asus will unlock the ability to run level 3 in X Mode, without a cooling fan. Because it's a strange thing that the Rog Phone 2 works at 100% power (no fan) and works better in an emulator (e.g. Dolphin).
Rog 2 has a processor frequency of 2.96 GHz while rog phone 5 is max 1.56 GHz. max. It is also strange that other smartphones (not gaming) with the 888 snapdragon work in the machine at full power, without additional accessories.
Rog Phone 3 also has level 3 locked in X Mode, but there, although you can manually set it to run at 3.09Ghz.
Can someone also explain to me the differences in processor timing, for ROG 2/3/5, in the same Level 2 mode in X Mode
Rog 2 (Snapdragon 855+) - 2.39GHz
Rog 3 (Snapdragon 865+) - 2.09GHz
Rog 3 (Snapdragon 888) - 1.56GHz
The more powerful the processor, the lower the clock frequency at Level 2

@Danishblunt how do you get 3.09 GHz on ROG 3? Are you setting max values manually?

I have 2.96GHz after manual settings in Rog 2. In ROG 5, with similar settings, I have 1.56GHz

I have my private kernel, it boosts more aggressive on GPU and CPU. Screenshots of manual setting on 2.96ghz without EFB?

Interesting how to set the maximum CPU in Rog 5? (2.84GHz)

No clue, the Rog5 is known to have some severe problems when it comes to performance, many have complained about it, even games like pubg runs horrible on it.



As you can see the FPS say stable 60fps, but due to very inconsistent framedrops its quite laggy and problematic.

I did some tests on ROG 5. 1080p without EFB
X Mode

Gaming tuning (manual)


Console - Advance - edit



What not to set, max I have 1.56. almost half the performance of previous ROG models

Well as I said, it's a common problem, you can pray that ASUS is going to do something about it.
