[Q] How to overclock this device?

[MinerBoy004]

Hello. I currently have a unlocked bootloader Kindle Fire HDX 7" with Cyanogenmod 11. I been looking into all that "hardware" stuff, and I was wondering if there is a way to overclock this device. I did seen some weird Cyanogenmod 11 kernel, but I'm not sure if that works. And if it doesn't, what can I do to overclock it then?

Thanks.

You can't without a different kernel. All the custom roms for this device use the same kernel with possible exception to CM13 (believe that still uses v4 kernel) .

Given observed thermals with all cores maxed out you probably wouldn't have much head room of unlocked. Big jump in SoC temps stepping through upper frequencies; geometric curve.
