Clock speed?

Anybody know of a way to find out exactly what these FT3's are clocked at? I know they are supposed to be 1GHz, but that could just mean the cpu is capable of 1GHz, and the utilities report 790 BogoMIPS but that is not directly related to FSB clock speed....
Anybody got one open in front of them and can see a crystal markings?

From what I've read I believed they were 1GHz processors clocked somewhere between 600MHz and 800MHz to prolong battery life.

You are right, BogoMIPs is a relative[ly meaningless] measurement based on a timing loop with [as I recall]the 386DX having a value of 1 BogoMIP. Incidentally, I still have my first 386DX [with 387 CoPro] sitting in the corner of my workshop...

Seems rather pathetic now when each of the four cores of the machine I sitting at right now is rated at 2662.00 BogoMIPs!


As it is a relative rating, you would need BogoMIP ratings of other tablets for comparison, If we knew the CPU type and clock speed of any of them it would give us a fair indication of the speed of the FlyTouch III.

Ok, I'll start the ball rolling with the figure obtained by running cat /dev/cpuinfo from the terminal of my disco machine.

BogoMIPS : 791.34

If anyone gets a radically different figure it would be worth while knowing both it and the details of your machine.
 
Well from the information System Tuner gives me I have exactly the same BogoMIPS on my facepad, 791.34 that is. I found a post on here and the guy had exactly the same information as me given by his apps (click here).

Also I found some information about IMAPx200 on this site and since its a Chinese site I used a translator and this is what I got.

Outline

Also in another site I found that the differences between the X200 variances are:

-The 210 adds 2D/3D graphics hardware accelerator.

I have been digging through my history trying tofind something I read when I was looking into getting one of these. The article said something about the CPU and the GPU sharing the 1GHZ. Maybe it was the CPU and the GPS processor. I didn't really pay attention at the time because I had never heard it before.
 
All the utilities seem to get their information from the same place...like the cpu being a x200...they all say it is 791...(bogomips or MHz).. its not necessarily the ACTUAL speed it is clocked at. The CPU will run at upto 1 MHz... and we all assume it runs at one of these speeds...but I was wondering what it was actually running at. I would like to either see the diagram of the FSB oscillator crystal circuit or stick it on a scope/freq counter to see it's clock speed.

Up to 1MHz?

I think you've been sold a 6502...
