Hi, I've been trying out the overclocking profiles of other users posted, but none convinces me, because they block the EeePC or because they are poorly programmed, so I created one, which I tested, and it works perfectly
Here is the EeeCTL, ready to go, and tested

; eeectl has a modular structure, each module has a set of resources.
; Most notable

; Modules:
; Core -- eeectl core interface.
; Speed -- FSB speed, PCIE speed and CPU voltage control.
; Temp -- Temperature monitor.
; Fan -- Fan control.
; Backlight -- Backlight brightness control.
;
; Methods:
; Core._quit -- Exit app.
; Core.Alpha -- Load ini file "Alpha".
; Speed._up -- Switch to the nearest upper speed profile.
; Speed._down -- Switcn to the nearest lower speed profile.
; Speed.Alpha -- Switch to the "Alpha" speed profile.
; Fan._native -- Return fan control to the embedded controller.
; Fan._auto -- Enable automatic mode.
; Fan.Numeric -- Set fan speed to "Numeric".
; Backlight._up -- Switch to the nearest upper backlight profile.

; PCIE is PCI Express bus clock frequency.
; Voltage is CPU voltage flag, 0 for Low, 1 for Normal.
; This flag is ignored for all(and even named) intermediate values.
; Name is just what to show in the menu("Suspend" is the special profile to set before entering sleep mode).
; You may omit Name in case you want to hide profile from the menu, however it will still be used as an
; intermediate value.

; Note that changing the frequency includes a step-by-step transfer through all intermediate
; values, i.e. if you change the frequency from 70 to 100 MHz and settings contain also 80
; and 95MHz, first the frequency will be changed to 80, then to 95 and only then to 100MHz.
; When comparing, FSB speeds are taken in account first and if they are equal -- PCIE speeds get comapared too.

Is a risky configuration. It can pruduce freezings. The config.ini I posted in the first message, are made to serve for all, regardless of the RAM module, and always with a safety margin to avoid freezings

Ah, we can post a list with the RAM we have mounted on the EeePC and the maximum stable frequency. Is a good idea??

I've been running at 2150Mhz for several hours...CPU-Z actually shows 2126Mhz, so that's correct...I'll have to change the name in eeectl icon menu...I'm watching Chelsea vs CFR Cluj on internet with SopCast now 1:1.....no problems...
Offline
What RAM you use?? Valid the CPU-Z and post the link
Offline
CPU-Z @ 2126Mhz
Memory
Memory SPD 
None of the FSB's in CPU-Z match those in eeectl settings, the FSB speeds show up different in CPU-Z..? why is that..? could it eeectl isn't working properly, giving false parameters?...it sure looks like that..
Wouldn't it be great to mode SHE with some better speeds...

For those who are overclocking, have you actually run any benchmarks to check for benefits? I know that might sound like an odd question, but i noticed that my system was getting nearly identical benchmark results at 1.9 GHz as 1.6, some tests even ran slower. I don't know what the bottleneck is that is causing this.
Also, has anyone ran SPD tool to try to change their ram timings? I wonder if it would be possible to run the ram at a lower latency.

eeectl was written for eeepc 7" 2/4g, it's only been changed on the surface for eeepc 901/1000H....it doesn't work properly....it does speed the cpu up but not like it's suppoed to do...
for example setting 54,198,1,2150MHz in the ini file actually brings 177FSB and 2126Mhz not 198FSB / 2150Mhz....so it's a hotch botch way of overclocking....not at all accuerate and probably detrimental for the overall system speed....
so even though mine runs at 2126Mhz without problems, I'm going back to SHE untill a more accurate over+underclocking software is available.....
I'd really like to see the SHE software moded...

Eeeeepc, the RAM clock has a divisor. In the 1000x, is 2:5
It means: 5 CPU MHz = 2 RAM MHZ
The important is the RAM
You have DDR2 800 RAM??
The problem is the divisor can´t be changed, but a netbook is not enginereed for overclock. Because it, the memory clock is very high.
I'm running with a DDR2 667 Kingston module. With 1,9 processor frequency, my ram is running at 760 MHz..... a high overclock.
If I mount an A-Data DDR2 800, I can run with 2.1 CPU clock and 840 RAM clock
Offline
I want to say that what overclocking is limited by the RAM. So if you want to reach more of 1.9 GHz you need to mount DDR2 800. That's why I have put profiles overclocked to DDR2 667, to serve for all, DDR2 667 and DDR2 800

Mine at 1890 mhz got 845 points on 3dmark03
With default 1,7ghz got 769
But on cpu based tasks, like project 64 i noticed better performance.
So is not really much, since the graphic card uses shared memory, probably is better RAM with low timings, a Kingston HyperX with CL3 could do better results on system overall.
If your performance is low check if CL changed to 5 when overclocking.
On a note, if you disable rotating from GMA panel you will get 20 points less than enabled.. really weird

I've got 2GB OCZ DDR2 800 RAM...you can see the SPD and info in the 2nd, 3rd pictures I posted above....
They are very good RAM, I've got 4GB (2x2GB) of the same ones in my DELL Vostro1500 Laptop...
Like I wrote I don't really like the eeectl application because it's not precise, I type in a FSB speed into the *.ini file but it gives me another FSB speed instead....I don't think it's good for the system because it messes up the different settings in relation to one another....it works in a hotch botch way, not properly....

I ordered some KINGSTON KVR667D2S5 2Gb RAM which I read on here, overclocks to 2Ghz as well - guess I will try it and let you guys know what happens after a "stress test"... ![]()
