Power-Control-Panel-v2 VS RyzenAdj

You can also mess about with Power Control Panel V2, but not sure if that does actually change the TDP accurately. u/baldsealion have you used or heard much about PCPV2? https://github.com/project-sbc/Power-Control-Panel-v2 Not mentioned in the wiki but seems to be a useful tool. I was using it for TDP control stuff before Steam Deck Tools. Very user friendly

Power Control Panel v2 (https://github.com/project-sbc/Power-Control-Panel-v2) Has more fine-grained power control than HandheldCompanion, e.g. can deactivate CPU cores Does not provide any other functionality than power control, so need more tools

Just searched for it. It's this, right: Power Control Panel v2

ProjectSBC's Control Panel v2: Not yet automatic, supports manual TDP modification. Unfortunately this code seems pretty thrown together and wouldn't be my go-to depending on how it evolves.

You can use https://github.com/project-sbc/Power-Control-Panel-v2 to limit TDP if you're planning on using Windows over HoloISO/SteamOS.

Tool for changing TDP

I've been using this and it works great: https://github.com/project-sbc/Power-Control-Panel-v2/releases

Out of curiousity how the 7840HS performs at different TDP, I did some benchmarks using Geekbench 6.2.0. To change the TDP, I've used the software RyzenAdj like so:

TLDR: Ryzen Adj.

A few years ago I did a bunch of poking w/ a 4800H, you can see the actual mechanics of using RyzenAdj. There are also Geekbench 5 benchmarks linked from the doc at different power limits which you can compare to 4800U devices on Geekbench's site: https://github.com/lhl/linuxlaptops/wiki/2020-MECHREVO-Code-...

Note, each laptop manufacturer may choose their different power limits (and like Intel, AMD's curves are largely driven by temperature, so dependent on cooling solution and other settings).

This is a good summary of some of how Ryzen Mobile's power limiting works (actually, read that whole wiki if you're interested in the topic): https://github.com/FlyGoat/RyzenAdj/wiki/Renoir-Tuning-Guide

I'd also look up "AMD PMF" (their equivalent of DPTF) which only recently made it's way to the Linux kernel (but of course, that will include loads of details anyone can look through): https://www.phoronix.com/news/AMD-PMF-CnQF-Linux-6.1

That app just uses (under the hood) this one https://github.com/FlyGoat/RyzenAdj - g-helper not using that , as it requires admin rights to run :)
