Ubuntu - GPU - AMD GPU - Overclocking - Increase Power on AMD GPUs
It is possible to increase the number of watts supplied to the GPU.
- This should increase performance.
ALERT This will effectively overclock the GPU.
- This may result in erratic behavior being seen on the system (i.e. frequent crashing).
- If so, restore the GRUB file back to what it was before!
Edit GRUB Config
Make a Backup of GRUB
sudo cp /etc/default/grub /etc/default/grub.bak
NOTE: If the system somehow breaks, this can be used to restore the backup file.
Edit GRUB Configuration
Edit /etc/default/grub.
Change:
- /etc/default/grub
... GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" ...
to
- /etc/default/grub
... GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash amdgpu.ppfeaturemask=0xffffffff" ...
Regenerate Bootloader Configuration
sudo update-grub or sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
NOTE: On a Fedora or openSUSE distro use:
sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
