Hello all,
I have an A8-3850 and can understand the overclocking on the CPU side, i have mine at 3.0 ghz instead the 2.9, however i like efficiency, and my CPU range from 800 Mhz to 3.0 ghz depending on Load.
I want to do the same thing for the internal IGP, its 282 mhz on idle, and 600 mhz on load, there is option in my motherboard (MSI a75a-g35) to specify the IGP frequency manually, and i did that, and set it to 700 mhz and boy it was sweet and just wat i need, however the GPU was always running that frequency after bios update (actually it was 685 Mhz for some reason).
Looking at CPU-Z my IGP have two P states:
Perf level 0
and
Perf level 1
on stock the :
Perf level 0 = 282 Mhz
Perf level 1 = 600 Mhz
Which makes sense!
On over clock from bios:
Perf level 0 = 700 Mhz
Perf level 1 = 700 Mhz
So the million dollar question is :
Is there utility which can make me adjust/tweak the Perf level 1, i have searched around and saw there is one for AMD CPU athlon cores, called K10Stat, but i want the IGP ?
Or another way to do it, basically i want to over clock but i want to keep the power saving on idle settings.
Thanks in advance.
