More power to portable gaming. We've just picked up word via an insider that among the updates that PSP [Only registered users can see links. ] carries, one important feature that's apparently been unlisted is that this latest fw release will finally allow commercial games to run at the PSP's full 333mhz CPU speed.

Prior to this, all UMD games for the PSP have been restricted to just 266 MHz - roughly 80 of the portable console's full power.

And while [Only registered users can see links. ] (that means you, intrepid coders!) [Only registered users can see links. ] for some time now, this move will provide new-found benefits for official UMD games: accelerated frame rates and game load timesare definitely at the top of our wish list, although we'll just have to wait and see if this is indeed the case. Aside from the hopeful speed boost, we're just hoping [Only registered users can see links. ]'s also got something planned for the increased power usage expected from turning the proverbial limiter off on the PSP - [Only registered users can see links. ]?

That aside, the company has yet to give an official statement on this new feature, and whether this unlocked CPU speed is dedicated to post-3.50 UMD games, or will affect past titles as well. Stay tuned for updates on this hot news.



Cool for official firmware owners
