RPXZ Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svl7 Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 <gpuindex>-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> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

svl7 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 The card automatically switches to P0 when there's load on the GPU, there's absolutely no need to force a P-State. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deckard Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 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.
