    Hey guys, I was wondering if there was a dynamtic way of switching the GPU clock based on load? I have CHC as well as the default ATi's Powerplay app. CHC will only switch the GPU clock when it's idle, and Powerplay is a set clock.

    What i'm looking for is some way to set the clock to be say 100Mhz when i'm just web browsing, then automatically switch to full 400Mhz when I launch a 3D app.

    Thanks

    if you use the overclocking feature in the Omega drivers than you can set application specific clock speeds. So that whenenever you open up said program it sets the clock speed to xxx and then it goes back to default when you leave.
