d3mox Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 The real clock doesnt change on my setup. No matter if I set 1400 or 1500 the real clock is still just 1382 MHz. It could be bug of GPU-Z, I had the same bug many times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crew Leeghoofd Posted November 11, 2013 Crew Share Posted November 11, 2013 Maybe try F4 bios Roman, your Physx scores also lower with 100Mhz more on the CPU, run rerun till it get's it right... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjjc Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 I can set the clocks from bios and it shows in gpu-z altough only in 120mhz or so steps. It almost feels like the gpu jumps onto a new divider when the clocks go up which is bringing performance down, is that a possibility?

Massman Posted November 11, 2013 Author Share Posted November 11, 2013 Yes, it's possible. The Stilt explained it in the ASRock thread, Several people have reported that the 3DMark score is dropping after a certain clock frequency has been reached. The technical background of this issue is the "Bidirectional Application Power Management" (BApm). The performance starts to degrade when the GPU divider is dropped to 3,00 or below (equals 1266MHz or higher SCLK at 100MHz BCLK). It is because at this point the power envelope (44W on 6800K) for the GPU is reached. When the GPU exceeds it's power envelope, BApm forces the SCLK to throttle to get the power consumption back within the limits. During the throttle the SCLK frequency will oscillate between 304MHz and 1266MHz (at 100MHz BCLK). Eventhou the BApm has access to the real power consumption and temperature data they are ignored for the SCLK power limit. The BApm only weights changes made to the commanded UNB Vdd and the SCLK Dpm frequency. Since the voltage changes made from the bios are not visible to BApm, it only sees the SCLK frequency itself changing. Therefore the SCLK throttling activates always at the same point, no matter if the chip is running on air or LN2 cooling. Anyway I will post a tool to disable the throttling on Trinity and Richland APUs later today. Have to make one first, as BApm cannot be killed easily without breaking number of other things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjjc Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Yes, it's possible. The Stilt explained it in the ASRock thread, Ah, interesting. Thanks for that. I have actually been using the tool Stilt built for this very purpose, but maybe it's not working on the gigabyte boards? Or maybe there's a TDP limit enforced by the bios that has no setting to override? Might have to try an Asrock Extreme6 and see if I get the same thing. Taking this whole a little fun with an amd apu thing waaay to far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted November 12, 2013 Author Share Posted November 12, 2013 It might just be so that the Gigabyte board is not supported. I don't know, but I think he suggested that in some cases the tool might not work. I guess the best option would be to shoot the guy a PM and check Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tech Tweaker Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 (edited) I can't get this HWBOT Aquamark3 wrapper (version 2.51.106) to install. Downloaded it three times, tried installing four or five times, and it still won't load! Gives me an error message every time saying that it's missing files and has failed to start. "This application has failed to start because MSVCR100.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem." "This application has failed to start because MSVCP100.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem." Wanted to compete in the Aquamark3 stage, but can't get the wrapper to work. Can I just run the 1.0 version wrapper? That one actually WILL install and run on my PC. Any suggestions?

Bones Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 You can try downloading the file at the link I found and follow the installation directions that's on the download page.

Mikecdm Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Now THAT fixed my problem. Thank you very much. Shame I just wasted two hours trying to figure out what was wrong. Seems a few are having the same issue. I also encountered the same message and google helped me find the answer. Then I came to this thread and everyone suggested the same thing I had found. Good thing is that although you may have wasted 2 hours, you still have 46 days left Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arise Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 (edited) Stage 6, Nov 1 - Dec 19, Catzilla 576P (AMD APU): for this stage only AMD APUs are allowed. You may only use the onboard APU. LIMITATIONS: Only use processors using socket Socket FM1, Socket FM2 socket, Socket FM2+ socket, Socket FS1 socket, Socket FT1 socket, Socket FT3 socket. Scores submitted with AMD Bobcats - small and lower power but true APUs like E-350 and E-450 (soldered socket on the motherboard - BGA413) are allowed? Later edit: Actually, I took a look at CPU database http://hwbot.org/hardware/processors?from=processor_2393#key=bga_ft1 and it seems they are BGA FT1 socket, somewhat matching the rules.

I.nfraR.ed Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 So what's the situation with Aquamark? I'm back from a business trip and I want to bench Aquamark. Will a score with v2.26/2.27 still eligible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently any version that works for you. 2.52 is now done, with XP support fixed among others, but I plan on replacing the installer to stop getting the false positives so it might take another day to get it tested and released.
