Hi, peeps!
I’d like to know if there’s a way to enable boost clock? I’ve installed cpupower
but changing the governor to performance
doesn’t enable it.
The reason for me asking is that I bought a new PC, with both CPU and GPU from AMD since they are way more Linux friendly, and playing CS:GO gives me micro-stutters which are pretty annoying. As a small addendum: I was expecting close to 300fps, but right now I’m not even close (200 and less).
Specs are Ryzen 5 3600 and RX 5700 XT; under is the output of cpupower frequency-info
$ cpupower frequency-info
analyzing CPU 0:
driver: acpi-cpufreq
CPUs which run at the same hardware frequency: 0
CPUs which need to have their frequency coordinated by software: 0
maximum transition latency: Cannot determine or is not supported.
hardware limits: 2.20 GHz - 3.60 GHz
available frequency steps: 3.60 GHz, 2.80 GHz, 2.20 GHz
available cpufreq governors: conservative ondemand userspace powersave performance schedutil
current policy: frequency should be within 2.20 GHz and 3.60 GHz.
The governor "performance" may decide which speed to use
within this range.
current CPU frequency: Unable to call hardware
current CPU frequency: 3.61 GHz (asserted by call to kernel)
boost state support:
Supported: yes
Active: no
Thanks
