What about pairing a undervolt alongside Radeon Chill? Plus I'm curious about setting the Radeon Chill's min/max and how that could impact boost in regard to frame dropping the more unwanted side of the min/max/average frame spectrum. The hardware dropping some of the high frame rates so it can run cooler and boost higher on the minimum frame rates would be a worthy trade off. I find the minimum wattage and frequency on the undervolt really intriguing on the Radeon VII.
If there is a way to keep the minimum frequency/wattage identical that would probably improve the efficiency average a fair amount depending on workload.
That's why with a bios mod I tweak each p-state with a undervolt. Where you can run into issues though is if you set voltage too low and you run into corruption issues from the GPU being under fed voltage relative to frequency bad things happen at that point on screen. Too far of a undervolt turns into something reminiscent of a NES cart blow nostalgia experience quickly, but a less quick and easy fix at the same time.
At least AMD provides a means to undervolt w/o a bios mod though with ease so it's far safer to test w/o running into a complicated mess to fix.
