The Reality Synthesizer (RSX) is a proprietary graphics processing unit (GPU) developed jointly by Nvidia and Sony for the PlayStation 3 video game console. Based on Nvidia's GeForce 7 series, specifically the 7800 GTX, the RSX utilizes a hybrid design incorporating elements of the G70 and G71 (previously known as NV47) architecture.

Apr 13, 2025 · The RSX 'Reality Synthesizer' is a proprietary graphics processing unit (GPU) codeveloped by Nvidia and Sony for the PlayStation 3 game console. It is a GPU based on the Nvidia 7800GTX graphics processor and, according to Nvidia, is a G70/G71 (previously known as NV47) hybrid architecture with some modifications.

PS3 GPU-RSX "Reality Synthesizer" Graphics processing is managed by the RSX Reality Synthesizer , developed by Nvidia and paired with 256 MB of GDDR3 video memory. [ 5 ] The RSX chip can produce resolutions ranging from standard-definition ( 480i / 576i ) up to high-definition ( 1080p ).

Mar 19, 2022 · The goal of the project is simple, overclock RSX to achieve some fps boost in games and vsh while maintaining stability in the operating system and games themselves. Currently it comes in two bundles: One for Core Speed of 550 Mhz and another for …

Mar 23, 2015 · As most of you know, the magic of DeanK and other PS3 scene developers has made it possible to get real-time temperatures even in-game. My PS3 is a FAT MGS4 Edition. I bought it used and it's probably been used for 5 years minimum. And now the CPU/RSX go up to 80C under the heavy load of games like TLOU and GoW3.

Jan 29, 2022 · The original PS3’s have 90NM RSX which are more power hungry, less reliable and they run hotter, but you can now install a 65nm and 40nm RSX gpu from later model PS3’s into an original backwards compatible PS3.

The RSX-65nm graphics processor is an average sized chip with a die area of 186 mm² and 300 million transistors. It features 24 pixel shaders and 8 vertex shaders, 24 texture mapping units, and 8 ROPs. NVIDIA includes 256 MB GDDR3 memory, which are connected using a 128-bit memory interface.

Be sure to use the correct table for your model of PS3. SYSCON EEPROM Addresses these apply to: Sherwood = 0x51. Mullion = 0x3111. Note: The default value is FF on retail consoles. Writing FF to these addresss will revert RSX Core to stock voltage.

Aug 5, 2023 · I created this tutorial to help people who struggle to use ps3MFW-Builder, in order to allow everyone to build their own modified firmware with the desired GPU speeds. I tried to be as clear as possible. Use it at your own risk ! To have an hardware flasher is recommended.

May 12, 2023 · From my understanding the 90nm RSX has issues with the bumps between silicon and substrate. I have a CECHG04, which is still running (delidded, got super hot). The G04's RSX die was purple with some blue spots, which indicates some hot spots.
