Overclock your Xbox One

This was first posted in @dominater01 's discord and was discovered by Title OS

Enabling a basic overclock on your Xbox One
This was discovered by Title OS:
1) Download hwinit.overclock.gpucpu.cfg
2) Rename it to hwinit.cfg
3) put it on a usb drive under a folder named $SystemUpdate
4) plug the usb into your xbox
5) reboot

If you hear your xbox beep twice on boot up that means its working

hwinit.overclock.gpucpu.cfg : https://anonfiles.com/57J60cDdo2/hwinit.overclock.gpucpu_cfg

More info:
The file enables an overclocked mode controlled by a byte at 0x8 and can have a value between 0x01 - 0x58. File Magic: 0x1-0x58 - 4E,49,57,48,02.Unknown FF range.

No, just a beep during startup (when the green screen with the xbox logo is on) and that´s it.

I'm so intrigued by implications of this files existence. The file is obviously unencrypted if it can be hexed, showing all those zeros is a dead giveaway. So that means the Xbox is hard-coded to check USB ports at boot for Dev options in pre-designated file directories, for testing purposes. Does this remind anyone of the PS3? Maybe we can use a USB sniffer to see what it's looking for.

I have both the XO & XOX and couldn't get this to work on both

I actually did put this file+folder inside the root (U:) of the Xbox One hard drive (using My Files Explorer app).

Does that method also work?

yes definitely works and worth doing! My Xbox one Fat dose not beep but i can tell a difference in gameplay, warzone dose not hang and lag like it was. over all a much smother game play experience, the hard drive in use is a 5400Rpm hard drive so im kind of looking toward to throwing in a SSD and see if that makes a improvement on gameplay.
