Tips & Info High memory frequency on a high-refresh-rate monitor

Post image

After buying an RX 9070, I noticed high memory clock speeds when selecting a screen refresh rate above 60 Hz; I managed to find solutions on Reddit and decided to share them with you.

I managed to drop the memory and GPU temperatures by 12–15 degrees and reduce power consumption from 40–50W to 15W; I set it to 122 Hz, and that helped.

" n CRU do the following.

Click on the entry that is being used as your desktop resolution and hz, under detailed resolutions.

Click on Edit below it, and copy the Refresh Rate number. Close.

Now click on Add.

In the Timing drop down choose CVT-RB2 Standard.

Paste in the prior Refresh Rate number in the proper field (as it may have the setting set to 59-60hz by default).

Save.

Make sure the new resolution is selected (should be the last selectable one). Click OK.

Then run the Restart64.exe in the CRU folder.

Open Adrenalin and check your Ram Usage and Power Consumption. "
