### [English Readme](README_ENG.md) | [Telegram group](https://t.me/UltraNX)
### Ultra is a functional custom firmware for Nintendo Switch, with a focus on overclocking and an improved user experience.
## Features of Ultra
* Pre-configured OC-Suite with presets.
* The best overclocking customizer for Switch - Ultra-Tuner, that allows you to customize overclocking right from the console. It was the first, and remains unique.
* The CFW is as light as possible. There are no unnecessary things in it, only minimum necessary for overclocking and comfortable use.
* Modular design. A minimum of applications/plugins/overlays are included, but you can always add more via the bundled Updater.
* Choice of cooling system preset, either noisy but cold or quiet but hot.
* Custom Ultra Monitor with FPS and system metrics.
* Regular updates, and an active community.
