i don't really understand whats the issue here, currently when im playing competetive csgo i have usually 120-150 fps and in some maps my fps goes even to 190-200, my csgo settings are set on low. but on games like dead space my fps is only 30, on counter strike 1.6 my fps goes to 100 then it drops down to 50-60 or even less making it unplayable with also random lag spikes. my previous gpu was a geforce 630 gt 4gb and i think i had more fps in dead space because the game felt smoother while playing, in counter strike 1.6 my fps was always 99-100.
is there a way i could stabilaze my fps because i dont understand how can i have more fps in csgo when the game requires more then dead space and cs 1.6 and also playing games like runescape oldschool i get lag spikes/my fps stays at 30-40 when the max fps on the game is 50, when the game doesn't require anything big lol

RE: also should i set my GPU frequency % to max (30) or a bit less?
I would not normally increase GPU CLK or GPU VRAM Memory CLK (MCLK) frequency on AMD GPU by more than 5% increase.
That should be a reasonably stable overclock.on most AMD GPU's.
If you go higher than on the GPU clock you may crash the driver/system and the driver should reset to normal on reboot.
If you go higher on the GPU MEM CLOCK you may start to see artifacting on the video display. If you see that, back off immediately.
There is a chance if you run the GPU with too high overclock, especially on MEM Clock that you might damage the card if card RAM temps get too high.
It depends on how well the temps are monitored on the GPU.
RE: also if settings my fan target/min and temperature max/min to max won't that fry my GPU or break the fan?
No it should be fine.
Newer AMD cards have PowerTune 2 since new cards in the R9 200 series.
It monitors card temps, voltages, fan speeds, power consumption and will keep the card within the standard operating parameters.
Here is how I typically run my R9 Nano for maximum performance running games in Wattman. I do not touch the card voltages normally.
. Here are the actual frequencies and voltages (toggle the Frequency and Voltage buttons on the GUI):
If I want even more performance for benchmark or in a particular game I can sometimes get more performance by undervolting the card by 50-100mV and increasing the frequency for power State 6 & 7 by a bit more. In this case you have to undervolt for a particular game / application and GPU. For example my PowerColor R9 Nanos are the fastest/best performance/best undervolters versus my XFX or Sapphire R9 Nanos.
Finally these are the settings I would use if I want most FPS at expense of graphics Quality in a case where my monitor refresh rate is 60 Hz and assuming I am struggling to hit 60FPS, and the in game Vsync is set off.
I would turn Frame Rate Target Control to on because it does help meet the overall FPS target by preventing the GPU from running at crazy FPS speed.
Foe example in cases if your in game character looks up to the blank sky or into a corner in a building.
It keeps the GPU running at sensible 60 FPS (and therefore lower power and temp) in less challenging graphics situations.
That leaves more temperature headroom and chance you can hit 60 FPS in more difficult situations in the game ... such as your in game character looking far into the distance in a highly detailed scene with many other characters running around and shooting at you for example.
Unfortunately Chill would stay off.
I would really like to to be able to use it.
It is broken and does not work properly.
It is a great idea overall, especially in games like Sniper Elite 4 where it would be great to set Chill Min to 30 FPS, and Chill Max to 75 FPS to match my 75Hz Freesync monitor. When the sniper is sitting hiding in bushes I am very happy for the in game FPS to drop to 30FPS, and the GPU power to drop significantly, and it does. However I am not happy with the fact that if I try to make my character run around using keyboard only WASD keys the maximum FPS is actually limited to 45 FPS. Chill Min + 15. I do not want 45 FPS. I want 75FPS in that situation. I can hit 75 FPS if I move the mouse like crazy, something I would not do in the game. I have repeated that same behavior on many other games. I have written up the problem and AMD have confirmed the limitation.
In conclusion FRTC is the only way to save power and maximize performance.
Bye.
