Has anybody done this besides me? I can't wait to overclock my ti-89 i can't find any good guides on it though. I do have an overclocked ti-83 running from 4mhz at 9mhz 
On the overclocked ti's the game speed is incredible and it does math and graphs really fast but the batteries go fast as hell. And your theoritically not overclocking it. For example in the ti-89 its a 30mhz motorolla chp . yet it runs at 10mhz or 12mhz in the newer(less than a year old) hardware ver 2. The ti-89 memory can get 21mhz. To overclock ti's its really easy you remove the c7 i think it is capacitor that controls cpu speed and put one on instead with very low capacitance so the chip will run faster. You can even try to solder it striaght no capacitor but it doesn't work very well. some good ti sites for doing this stuff are www.ticalc.org and some others , try google. I mounted a switch 2 two different capcitors in my 83 on the side of the calc (cut hole with drmel) its soo cool. I can run at stock 10mhz for normal work o 20mhz for fast had math calculations and insanely fast games. I don't think anybody has tried but if ou could increase the voltage to memory you maybe able to get it past 21mhz. Anyways, i think overclocking graphing calcs is pretty cool and there are a lot of guides and schematics online.
