When it comes to processors in our high-end Android devices, the benchmark at this point is that 1GHz point. It wasn’t too long ago that that that speed was something of a novelty, something to be stared at due to its rarity. Obviously that isn’t the case anymore. And one of the best parts of having a fast phone, is making it even faster. That’s why it’ll be good news to hear that the Captivate, the Samsung Galaxy S variant for AT&T has been overclocked to 1.2GHz.

With the new report and images, apparently 1.2GHz just isn’t fast enough, either. Suggestions that the Hummingbird processor can be taxed all the way up to 1.6GHz are already starting to fly around. Though, we’re sure that 1.2GHz, running on a stable kernal, should be good enough for most of the Captivate owners out there. Go ahead and hit up the source link below to find out more about the overclocked kernal, and determine whether or not it’s for you.
