Here is a benchmark showing both framerates and power consumption at the wall in Watts comparing a stock PS3 RSX running at 500MHz Core / 650MHz RAM vs 600MHz Core / 750MHz RAM in Gran Turismo 6

Conclusion: Performance uplift of around 10%-15% across the board. GT6 almost never hits it's 60fps target even whilst overclocked but the increase in performance is very much welcome with no visual artififacts found. When your PS3 is set to 720p output down from 1080p (or you modify the games PARAM.SFO to such) GT6 will render in 1280x720p instead of 1440x1080 this alone will yield signifant performance increases even without an overclock but have yet to test this.


Testing specs:

Ambient Temp: 21c on stock test & 22c on OC test.
PS3 Model: CECH-2503A (Slim)
Storage: 500GB 7200RPM HDD
Resolution Set on PS3: 1080p
Game Render Resolution: 1440x1080
Fan speed: 35%
