I want to somewhat reduce the clock speed of my graphics card. I try to do this in Radeon Software. Sometimes it accepts my speed changes. Sometimes it doesn't.
I click on the performance tab, tuning sub tab, click the box for manual tuning control, enable GPU tuning, reduce max frequency by 30% then click apply changes. After a second, the switch for GPU tuning switches off. When I switch it back on, the max frequency is back to 100%.
Why does Radeon Software sometimes refuse my speed changes? I can understand an unsafe overclock being rejected, by why an underclock?
I'm using an RX 480 graphics card and Radeon Software 20.2.2.
If it's any help, I want to run Folding@Home in the background but not make the graphics card fan too loud. That's why I want to slow it down.
