[LOL] My 1.7Ghz phone run slower than 1.2Ghz phone? Wutt?

[nanahira]

Okay let me get this straight...


so i have brand new $400 xperia SP, you know its 1.7Ghz Dual Core Cpu, adreno 320 GPU, what not to like?


i am trying to run project diva 1 and 2, i am surprised that the game is run at 60FPS but s̶o̶m̶e̶t̶i̶m̶e̶s̶ most of the time it lags and chopped, making the FPS go from 60 then 59, then 58, then 60 again.. its unstable and cause stupid annoying lag..



but compare to my silly $50 Chinese brand phone that has 1.2Ghz Dual Core + GPU PowerVR SGX 531


it run smooth without any fps drop lol,

so what is wrong with this ? i don't understand?? Anyone can explain?

Thanks!

unfortunately my powervr sgx 531 mobile broke, what i will say is it was a lot faster than my others.. i think its due to the very quick A9 cpu ie some cpus are quicker than others, the A9 is the fastest in its class.. in my experience..

I could be wrong about it being the fastest, its the quickest iv used out of A9, A5, A8... maybe if Henrik read this he could answer in more detail. It could also be the fact that the gpu is integrated??

It caused by cpu governor or cpu temp throttle.
This is very common for phones equipped with high clock cpu include my phone.

Edit. I tried project diva extend demo. It is very stable and less system demanding game for ppsspp.
I underclocked cpu to 800 Mhz and it still ran at 60 VPS with AA and linear texture filtering.

my phone has a MTK6577 and project diva runs rather well on my phone, it has a 1ghz a9 dual cpu and powervrsgx531 GPU... it gets very hot though and battery life drained annoyingly fast... well my phone has a tiny 1500mah battery so that wasnt surprising at all...
