Not sure why you're getting downvoted. Overclocking the switch this much will definitely kill the overall lifespan of it

It won't. The switch it massively underclocked for battery life.

The nVidia shield tablet it's based on regularly pushes 2ghz CPU/1ghz GPU. That tablet doesn't have the cooling solution the Switch has either, it's just got a crappy elongated heatspreader like M1 macbooks.

What if we just add more clocks?
