This is a sysmodule/service for Atmosphere and ReiNX that uses IPC's to communicate with its companion NRO, Freeset. This allows you to adjust clock speed on the Switch.
The only restriction in place is that you must be plugged into an official charger or docked if you want to access the highest two GPU clock speeds. The choice of clock speeds is entirely at your discretion, but exercise caution.
Note: May not work on newer firmware, you can use sys-clk instead.
Installation
Includes freebird and its companion app to control clock speeds on your Switch.
Atmosphere:
- Copy over the contents of the zip and reboot your system to load the module.
- Open Freeset and use that to send over the clock speeds you want.
ReiNX:
- Create a folder in your ReiNX folder named titles if there isn't one.
- Copy the titles folder from the atmosphere folder to ReiNX/titles/.
- Open "010000000000C235" and move the boot2.flag to the same directory as the exefs.nsp file.
- Reboot and freebird should now be working on ReiNX.
User guide
X turns freebird's clock setting feature on and off. Remember to turn this off before putting your system to sleep. This is still a work-in-progress, but it will cause and require you to fully shutdown and restart your Switch if accidentally left on. When on, freebird will check and set the clocks if they don't match what you choose. When turned off, your clock speeds will be reset and no longer forced.
A sends over the clock speeds shown/chosen from the menu. Up and down change the currently selected option, left and right change speed.
