AMD Ryzen 7000 Series Processors Features an Overclocked RDNA2 GPU – AMD

As is known, all AMD Ryzen 7000 Series processors include the RDNA2 GPU architecture. Of course, we’re not talking about the GPU powering the…image on the screen—without using a discrete graphics card—instead of playing games. However, this did not stop the site tax seats From overclocking the processor’s integrated GPU to … 3.1 GHz and increasing performance by almost 42% in some cases.

Overclocking wasn’t a simple and easy process, as the reviewer had to play with several settings via the AMD Precision Boost Overdrive, increasing voltages and power limits. Pieter’s books SkatterBencher website.

“While I wouldn’t say that overclocking the integrated graphics provides a viable way to achieve higher gaming performance,” the well-known overclocking geek still felt he had to try it. By default, the RDNA2 GPU in the processor runs at 2.2GHz with a voltage of 0.997V. By increasing the voltage to 1.2V, the operating frequency reaches 2.9GHz while with a slightly increased voltage optimization, the integrated GPU can reach 3.1GHz with up to 60W consumption compared to 38W from the factory settings.

What was the result of the 42% increase in performance? In Tomb Raider for example, at 1080p, the fps increased from 12 to 17, and it remains … unplayable. On the other hand, in CS: GO, the fps has increased to 60, which is impressive, given that the graphics subsystem is integrated only for “drawing the picture” (mainly for basic functions and diagnostics).
