However, the future asic will use the new swSMU framework to implement as well.

This could mean future GPUs will have circuitry similar to current day Ryzen chips that will allow for very fine grained power and voltage control (certainly if they also add the accompanying Low Dropout Regulators amongst other things which in Ryzen allows for control of its own voltage on a per-core level).

If you want to know more I suggest reading the phoronix article I linked, or read up on Zen power regulation circuitry and mechanics.

Ive got a feeling well see a lot of similar things in upcoming GPU architectures from AMD.

Ryzen 1700 Undervolting Manual OCing If

Pretty sure its crashed before in light gaming (liquid bios on a reference card, it can hold the clocks fine but does much better with an undervolt) 20 Share Report Save Continue this thread level 2 2 years ago This effectively knocks out manual OCing if you look it at like that.

Theres not much gain going manual OC a 2700X vs its own automatic boosting and ocing.

This new SMU is a start but I fear Navi was already too far along to incorporate major design changes in efficiency.

Guru3D reported minimal results from their undervolt attempt, saying they gained maybe 10-15W but also lost 200 3DMarks compared to stock.,29.html Undervolting, however, did not yield towards a better tweak or extremely substantial power savings overall.

Undervolted we score 200 points less than the default performance whilst saving 10 maybe 15 Watts.

Share Report Save level 2 2 years ago AMD overvolts their cards for better yields.

Vega cant really keep up with Pascal or Turing in terms of power efficiency while keeping a competitive performance level.

It is actually thermal throttling itself on excessive voltage.

Share Report Save Continue this thread level 2 Ryzen 1600 3.7 GHz GTX 980ti 2 years ago AMD proved quite decisively that people seem to care a lot more about 5 FPS over performancewatt, so I guess it must be worth it to overvolt cards in exchange for a little bit more performance.

Share Report Save Continue this thread level 2 2 years ago Its binning, so what they do is get numberous amounts of GPUs they test and look for their card across all qualities and look for the most stable voltage across all over the bin grades.

So it doesnt hurt to undervolt your Vega or VII if its working pretty good.

Just be sure you dont have any voltage dips.

Share Report Save level 2 2 years ago if its able to be cooled, and if they can get an extra few percentage more in yields, they will add more voltage.
