    Phoronix: Trying The Radeon RX 480 & R9 Fury With The AMDGPU Code For Linux 4.8

    With the main batch of Radeon/AMDGPU driver changes ready for DRM-Next that will in turn land for the Linux 4.8 kernel, I've begun testing this new code with various AMD GPUs. Here are my AMDGPU results when comparing Linux 4.7 Git to this code that's coming for Linux 4.8 with a Radeon R9 Fury and RX 480...

    So we are getting OverDrive when it's being discontinued in favour for WattMan on Windows? A bit late, ain't it?

      Performance of my R9 380 with this kernel is still poor like with the other kernel 4.7 series :/

          It seems to be some regression with CS:GO.

              WattMan provides much more than just percental overclock.

              I said this before. I don't care about a GUI. AMD does not need to deliver one. The actual interface however would be great. Like overdrive but all the features of WattMan...
