I want to kiss the one who found that!

My Jasper was practically unusable since I had RGHed it and I did that as soon as RGH came up. It was freezing like hell! It was also jerky lots of times like something was wrong with its cpu frequency. Also had other issues like if I quitted a game or rebooted FSD it would show 0 games in my disk. Then I had to shut it down and reboot it! I tried many different configurations during these years, tried different wires and wirings, caps, shielded wires, connected to GND or not.. Also it would make 2-3 minutes to boot if it was cool but at least it would boot quickly the rest of the times (I had to reboot a lot because of the freezes) and I have tried many resistor and cap values to filter the CPU_RST cable but nothing helped. It just had to warm up the first time. Because of that I tended to thought it was cold solders and that I would need to put it on my reflow station but stock nand was working great so I was not sure and never tried it and now I am glad I didn't! I was going to revert it to stock and sell it as clean, that's how desperate I was! Now, after changing the values it is booting instantly and does not freeze! I haven't thoroughly tested it but there is a very clear difference and I feel it rocks now!

Jasper 512 BB with RGH1

Was
8280:8565 and ANA Fuse 01

Changed that to
8280:8665 and ANA Fuse 02

That was the only thing I tried and it worked beautifully! Im an trying to make it freeze but I can't anymore!

I think my GPU runs a little hotter with stock fan settings now. It was idling at 73C but I raised the fan to 65% and everything works like a charm! I will have it tested and let you know the following days! But I had to let everyone know that this is not only working with RGH2 and not only working for falcons!

Thank you guys for this!

I did a Falcon with CB 5774 dash 16747.
Freeze issues within 1 minute of game start.
Original smc values:
Power 8280, VCS 8665, ANA 00

Values that worked were:
Power 8080 VCS 8565, ANA 01

Thanks guys for this awesome find!

Hello all,

First of all, thanks for all the hard work for getting to this point!

I have a RGH1 Jasper 16mb that has "cronic" freezes on heavy 3D games like GTA5 and AC Black Flag. It may freeze after 10m or 1h of gameplay. It has been like this for about 2 years now...
This thread gave a smile to my face :D

But I need some advice, my values are:
Power mode: 8280
Power VCS Control: 8565
Both Ana fuses @ 03

In my case, should I alter any of these values? In which value should I begin and to what point?

Thank you all once again!

Regards,
John

You need to start a new thread and fill out the template. This is for falcons not Jasper's it's prob your wire placement
