Overclocking the Orange Pi 5 Max really challenged me.

I ended up writing my own OC and telemetry tools.

And I learned a lot about Rockchip’s adaptive PVTPLL clocking technology.

Which essentially enables overclocking through overvolting.

The biggest effort goes into setting up the device tree binary and overlays.

But in the end, the Arm A76 cores can run at over 2.6 GHz.

The memory at DDR5-6400, and the GPU at 1.4 GHz.
