Hello, I recently got snes9xTYL up and running on my PsP 2.50 - great program by the way- but I just wanted to know what the safest temperature to run it at would be? I haven't seen it go past 27c, so I think it is alright, but I just want to know for safeties sake.

Ive read an article that say's it shouldn't exceed 40c, so you are well within saftie limits.

TYL has a temp display at the menu (its right next to the charge indicator)

i had no idea this was there, haha, if by any chance it did exceed 40c, wat would happen?(just wondering). would it wreck the psp?

i just decided to see how high the temperature would go, i played super mario cart for about a half and hour and it reached up to 35c then it just crashed.

Well, if you play it for long periods of time, 35 is not out of the question, but give it a rest, especcially if its at 40.

If the psp exceeds 40c, you risk permenent damage to the PSPs processor.
Not worth it if you ask me.

man thats crazy, lucky thing someone made a post about this. i didnt even notice the Temperature. when i play RPG's i could play it for 2-3 hours if im really into it. so i better be careful.

try to play next to a fan... or... you can buy some ice cubes and wrap them to your psp... but do that if only you play for long periods of time... hehe

I know that chips these days are running at lower temp than our old Pentium 100 Mhz :-)
(thanks to the fab process). But I am not sure that 40 deg would PHYSICALLY damage your chipset.
I would believe that temperate is definitely a problem that would CRASH your PSP.
But by cooling down, it should work again...
I dont believe that silicium is that sensible to a temperature like 40 or 45 deg (it is like saying that the chip is chocolate and melting at 45 deg, even at 65 nm).
Now there may be issue with "hot spot" : basically when your chip is getting hotter, it is not actually the whole chip... It is the part the "work/commutate" most the transistor that transfer warm through the material itself. So there is may be a 1 or 0.1 mm2 surface that is VERY hot.
So the chip is 40 deg, but the hot spot is may be 70 or more.
Anyway I still believe that 333 Mhz is a range far from overclocking.
Hum... That's an interesting issue actually :-)
I will ask to some friends working on chipsets.
But I dont know if they have knowledge about materials itself.

If the PSP is planned to run at 333mhz, then any heat should be normal, even if it is the max processing speed.
