Forcing pstate?


Recommended Posts

Is anyone having problems forcing pstates with the 780m?

I am using nvidia inspector but the cards clocks keep changing? I have a MSI GT60 with the 780m flashed with the 780m unlocked BIOS.

I have tried multiple different commands

-forcepstate:0,0

-forcepstate:0,2

-forcepstate:0,0 (This one does lock the card from changing pstates however the card never goes over 324mhz?

I think I'm an idiot. Maybe I'm missing something? Any advice?

Thanks.

-forcepstate:GpuIndex,PStateID 

P0 is 0, P5 is 5, P8 is 8 etc. ... 16 is auto.

How did you try to do it? Bat? Command line? Maybe you messed up somewhere.

Also, why would you want to do this anyway?</pstateid></gpuindex>

This is actually really handy for me since apparently my 'card 0' is what runs the internal and external screens so it never downclocks to P8 like card 1 when desktopping. Forcing P8 on it when I know I won't be gaming saves power and lowers temp 5-6C so in the long run I'm hoping that helps the card live long and prosper.
