    interesting. I skipped the part with the double click in the initial post of yours. Thanks for pointing that out. It is helpful and works, kind of...
    On the newest driver I have a bug that causes the core clock to become unstable and clocks down wildly to +-800 mhz. (This happens with events related to DXVA.) Disable all states except one, didnt fix the problem, though.


    The command line utilization is extremely helpful! Thanks for implementing that feature. I made a small workaround with a batch file that applies regularly the clock settings (different profiles) with your tool.

    A little critic: it would be more helpful if you can add a visual hint that let the user activate/disable the Pstates. Something like a checkbox beside the Pstate. Double click is not really intuitive.

    This is an excellent tool to apply Wattman setting without the need to open the ugly and slow Wattman UI. I will keep suggest this tool in the future.

    Thanks for all good words. I was thinking about checkboxes for Psates, but this would add to much mess to the gui, also this is not commonly used feature, and most users don't need to disable any state, so i finally decided for double click.
    I must update first post with the info about this feature because many people skip changelog

    and add a Readme.txt ... and put the version number in the window title... and use PNG for the preview pic...

    yeah, i am just glad i could fix that stupid driver bug.

    can not get right voltage with this tool, trying set to 0.9V and it end with 1.1V ... btw wattool had offset settings, did you plan provide that option too? cause any voltage set in power state was moddified by it...

    Having tested on several PCs I now cannot confirm the sorting is OK. It was OK on first PC and different on the second one. (same motherboards but GPUs are different.

    In regard to the voltage control - it did work on some of the Rx480 but not all of them. Did not work on Rx580 Red Devil.

    Don't know if I can help further. Had to revert to Afterburner 4.4 beta 16 to make things work with the new drivers. :bang:

    lol offset and phase working in old wattool, now i get some good results, i like overdrive powerstate disabling, can test voltage on specific powerstate in hwinfo before running miner

    What gpu? maybe 1.1V is minimal value?
    Offset feature in WattTool is still working. I'm not going to add this, or monitoring to OverdriveNTool.
    Would be great if you try beta for kosho (page 1) which has sorting by Bus number, on different PCs.
    Strange.. Wattman worked for them? When you changed voltage was it changed in wattman too, and not used by the driver?
    Thanks @wiak I will update 1'st post
    I2C uses different ADL funtions which weren't changed by AMD for ages, and i don't think they will change them in the nearest future. There would be sooner produced new voltage controller incompatible with WatTool

    The beta for Kosho works well for my PCs. Fixed the sorting.

    @kosho - please confirm it works for you too.

    Cant get it working for some RX480. The interesting thing is that this is a 6 GPU machine: 5 of the same type RX480 (White Asus 4G) and one different RX480 (Asus strix 8G). The 8G one seems to accept the voltage settings but the 4G not.

    First, thanks for promising tool

    Got problem:
    "Failed to set gpu clocks" and memory clocks on all cards
    Used "beta blockchains drivers". Tried administrator mode as well

    No AB installed
    Clean install of drivers via device manager after removal with DDU + drivers patch
    Bios has patched values for clocks/voltage. (but not the values i intend to use, just safe low fallback values for cases of crash)

    Cards are rx 470 nitro 4g (not plus)
    Any advice? Willing to run some debug build if this helps

    There is lost lats days forum database, they will restore it from backup or not.
    In the meantime, I installed 17.8.1 and good news for WattTool fans: it's back alive again! :)

    Let's hope they restore it.

    For you 17.8.1 is working with wattool for some is not.

    Agree, so if people want i can continue my work on OverdriveNTool for 5xx users who don't have memory P2 in WattTool (maybe vega too, who knows?) and for 4xx users as an alternative to WattTool.

    this is the exactly prolem i have whit watttool,vega seem to be have p0,p1,p2,p3 for memory
    i suggest you to put monitoring parameter like gpu load,fan rpm,fan %,core & mem clock in overdriveNtool
    and plz tell me a way to auto start overdrive from clymore bat file like watttool....now i can start it with bat file and when set profile from the command in bat file it close after setting profile if i just set to open overdrive it keep open but when i put -p0"name" it close after set profile...watttool keep open after set profile
    I am embarrassed for writing English

    Я подтверждаю наличие новых драйверов 17.8.1, WattTool работает, но Mh / s падает
