Post by: grndzero on May 02, 2011, 06:31:25 AM What do you use to tweak your ATI GPU settings in Ubuntu? And why? It depends on what you're trying to tweak. If you're just looking to overclock then aticonfig will do it. If you want to go more advanced and tweak voltage and lower clocks then you want AMDOverdriveCtl. If you're using AMDOverdriveCtl you really need to understand your BIOS limits and voltages being supplied to the card so you don't damage it.

And the --adapter value is the same as the "d" value for poclbm? Title: Re: What Is Your Favorite ATI Overclocking Software In Ubuntu?

Do you have a link to that AMDOverdriveCtl??? I can't find any reference to it on the net :S Title: Re: What Is Your Favorite ATI Overclocking Software In Ubuntu?

Just give it a $aticonfig --list-adapters or $aticonfig --lsa and it will list the adapters that the fglrx (the graphics driver) has intialised and aticonfig is 'seeing'.

Does it need X to work, or can you use it at the command line, too ? Title: Re: What Is Your Favorite ATI Overclocking Software In Ubuntu? Post by: grndzero on May 02, 2011, 11:34:06 PM Does it need X to work, or can you use it at the command line, too ? It is a command line program, but you need X running to see any error messages or warnings. Title: Re: What Is Your Favorite ATI Overclocking Software In Ubuntu? Post by: twitcoins on May 03, 2011, 05:50:50 AM You can use AMDOverdriveCtrl from the command line. Save a profile (.ovdr file) and pass the -b flag.

Does anybody know how to bypass limits without BIOS modification in linux? Title: Re: What Is Your Favorite ATI Overclocking Software In Ubuntu?

Does anybody know how to bypass limits without BIOS modification in linux? Yep. Twiddle with the sliders in this tool and when you go back to CLI $aticonfig the limits have changed ... go figure. http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4806.0 http://www.overclock.net/software-news/514993-phoronix-ati-overclocking-utility-linux-2.html#post6338431 Title: Re: What Is Your Favorite ATI Overclocking Software In Ubuntu? Post by: Grinder on May 16, 2011, 08:03:02 AM Yep. Twiddle with the sliders in this tool and when you go back to CLI $aticonfig the limits have changed ... go figure. That only makes it possible to go below the limits, not above. |
