Overclocking does not seem to make noticeable difference in UAE4All yet it will generally consume 100% CPU between it, Xorg and PulseAudio. As such its better for the health of your N900 (and battery life) to use 600Mhz max while using UAE4All as you will just be heating up the N900 and draining the battery for nothing.

not sure who wrote this, but i wouldn't agree at all, demos are stuttery on the sound at the standard clock rates. work perfectly when overclocked!

I wrote that and I had not been the only person who didn't notice any difference on the things I tested. I guess it must depend on what part of the emulator is being stressed the most. I have removed the notice as if it does help for some people I guess its worth overclocking. To be fair, I keep mine overclocked anyway most of the time anyway. I did notice one thing though, its a good idea to add anything between 550 and the speed you are overclocking to into the ignored speeds list. UAE causes a lot of speed switches and every time it does you get a stutter. So its better that it jumps straight from 500 to top speed rather than using all those inbetween.

Anyway, I have added the titles mentioned here to the compatibility list.
