node-virtual-gamepads VS RyzenAdj

Urm no different thing I was referring to onscreen virtual game pads like https://github.com/jehervy/node-virtual-gamepads

I use npm with this package ‘virtual gamepad’ for retropie npm adverts were onetime when i set it up this is on every upgrade which is different magnitude of adverts https://github.com/jehervy/node-virtual-gamepads

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 :)
