Radeon Vii, Ryzen 2700x, Asus ROG Crosshair Vii Hero, Corsair AX1200i Watt.
Currently I am stuck at 356 MHz on Memory clock... is this normal?
No, not normal. Double Check the metrics in Radeon Settings, does it stay like that through out the session or benchmark?
Also, is ( Xbox DVR / Windows Game Bar ) turned on in your system.
I tried doing it using AMD Radeon settings utility, global wattman but with no luck, my system completely freezes on clicking save when I try even the Automatic OC mode
The utility very rarely crashes on me but only once when I clicked save. I suggest clean installing the driver.
Does anyone have any experience with overclocking Radeon VII
I only used the Radeon Utility. I made a manual Undervolt + Overclock profile.
Stock voltage 1075 mV, manual undervolt to 989 mV
Edge Temp went down from 75c to 64c
Junction temp from 105c to 88c
^ No overclock + manual fan curve ( max 59% / 2750 rpm ) when hitting 85c Junction temp.
Now, my overclock:
- Core frequency from default 1802 to 1840
- HBM frequency from default (Auto 1000) to 1150
I got about 3-5 fps extra in games but I reverted back to default clocks, not worth the extra heat and fan noise. I can boost the core frequency to 1870, but I have to raise voltage but again, not worth it to me.
even the Automatic OC mode
Unfortunately, with Auto Overclock, we can't adjust voltage or fan curve. So it's running at high voltages and the last two high points in the auto fan curve settings are, 60% at 94c and 75% at 105c.
For reference, 58% is 2750 rpm.
