Great stuff.

It wouldn't be surprising if the RP2350 gets officially certified to run at something above the max supported clock at launch (150MHz), though obviously nothing close to 800MHz. That happened to the RP2040[1], which at launch nominally supported 133MHz but now it's up to 200MHz (the SDK still defaults to 125MHz for compatibility, but getting 200MHz is as simple as toggling a config flag[2]).

The 300MHz, 400MHz, and 500MHz points requiring only 1.1, 1.3, and 1.5v and with only the last point getting slightly above body temperature, even with no cooling, seem like something that should maybe not be "officially" supported, but maybe mentioned somewhere in an official blog post or docs. Getting 3x+ the performance with some config changes is noteworthy. It would be interesting to run an experiment to see if there's any measurable degradation of stability or increased likelihood at failure at those settings compared to a stock unit running the same workload for the same time.

All of their reliability testing and validation happens at the lower voltages and speeds. I doubt they'd include anything in the official docs lest they be accused of officially endorsing something that might later turn out to reduce longevity.
