Enable Power saving 2nd card in CrossfireX (HD 5770 Hawk)

Dear all,
I have 2 MSI HD 5770 Hawk card configured in crossfireX, so far I have no issue regarding this setup in playing games or benchmark.
There is one issue that I want to clarify. Are the 2nd card in crossfireX mode always clocked to the 3d mode?
In my setup my 2nd card always show the GPU and Memory clocked at 875 Mhz & 1200 Mhz --> the 3d clock mode when playing game (but the GPU utilization at 0%) Are the 2nd card always draw power 100% when in this mode (0% utilization but in 3d clock mode)?
I want make the 2nd card have the same clock with the 1st card when idle (in 2d mode not always in 3dmode). Did anyone encounter this issue and know how to configure this?
My Spec are:
Phenom II X6 1090T
Asus Crosshair IV Formula
2x MSI HD 5770 Hawk
4 GB corsair Dominator GT
1 TB HDD
I am using catalyst 10.11
all running in default
for info here my screen shot:

M93p BIOS issue: PowerOff not correct if Enhanced Power Saving Mode Disabled and Wake on Lan Enabled

Hi Levnovo support team, Recently I bought a M93p tiny(10AAA05MTW)(BIOS revision FBKT56A)and installed with Ubuntu 13.10 myself.Then tried to enable wake on lan for my tiny. The followings are my test result. 1. Enhanced Power Saving Mode Enabled, no mateter what is Wake On Lan setting PowerOff system is OK. 2. Enhanced Power Saving Mode Disable and Wake On Lan Disabled PowerOff system is OK. 3. Enhanced Power Saving Mode Disabled and Wake On Lan Primary or Automatic PowerOff system is NG. When I tried to power off system, it always can poweroff(LEDs on front all off) then POWER ON again in 2 or 3 seconds. I cannot accept this test result ,system should poweroff not reboot again. It's really hard to understand why enabling Wake on Lan will affect power off function. I tried the same procedures with my another M92p(3212A16)(BIOS revision 9SKT70AUS), and it works well.

Did you ever get a fix for this?Having the same issue on 3 of 6 machines that just arrived.

Nokia N8: Possible Power Saving Mode Bug

Dear All,
For the past week, I've change the way I use my Nokia N8. I decided to set it up in power saving mode during the evening. There is no point for it to be on 3.5G if nobody is using it. Unfortunately, I seem to have hit a problem. At the moment, my N8 is using a pay as you go sim card from O2 and this card is in the phone 24/7.
When I activate power saving mode, the phone re-registers with the network and the maximum speed it will have will be EDGE. In the morning, when I take my phone I disable power saving mode and the phone re-registers again with the network.
Having said that, on multiple ocassions, my phone showed some worrying symptoms. For example, a few das ago, when I disabled power saving mode, the phone did not show the 3.5G icon and I could not make any phone calls. The coverage was up and down. You might say that, it did not show 3.5G because you had no 3.5G you idiot. That is not true, where I live, there is 3.5G everywhere.
I was shocked that I could not make any phone calls. After a few reboots and taking SIM card out, I managed to get the phone in working order.
Today, the same thing happened. I managed to fix it just a few moments ago. It seems that the power saving mode option has an implementation problem or O2 does not like the way the N8 registers to the network when you enable and disable the said feature. Has anyone encountered this???

@m80116, this may well be a solution, but could be problematic if in a weak reception area where only Edge is available ? You could lose data connection completely ! I tend to use Dual mode, and generally don't have an issue, but certainly for anyone living and working in a very strong 3 or 3.5G area it may work very well, wish I had the luxury of being able to use 3G Only

Stuck on No Signal / Power Saving - Lenovo H405.

Hey there, guys - if this is the wrong section, I apologize. First time buyer of Lenovo products, and I couldn't find a better place to put this. Anywho, I'll begin.. A week or so ago, on august 2nd, I bought a computer. It was my birthday, so I used my money and put it towards a Lenovo h405 desktop.
http://www.zdnet.com/reviews/product/desktops/lenovo-h405-7723-athlon-ii-x2-255-31-ghz/34448420
Of course, the power supply was a little meh, at 255w, and the graphics card was a no brainer, so I bought a 600w power supply and a GeForce GTX 550 Ti graphics card. I was happy. I set the desktop up, started it up, got it all ready and it worked like a charm. A few hours later, I went to go take it apart to put the new PSU in and it all went to shambles.
The new PSU's SATA cord was too short, so I couldn't use it quite yet - had to get an adapter. I shrugged it off and went to put the old PSU back in since I had to stall on getting the new PSU in. Oh well. So I put it in right, all cords in the right places, yet when I turned it on, the monitor wouldn't budge. It was pitch black and the light was green - then a yellow 'No signal' message flashed across the screen and the icon went orange.
That's the start of a long, painful trip. So I figured, the integrated ATI Radeon 3000 graphics card was sort of confusing it since it wasn't a physical graphics card, so I kept trying to rearrange the PSU but no luck. I finally got the new cord and I went to put the new PSU in - still nothing. Not a thing had changed. I put the new graphics card in. No luck with that either - it still didn't show a single thing except the brief 'No signal'.
So of course, I thought it was my monitor by this point. I made sure all cords were as tight as possible - retried this a few times. Nothing.
Tried my laptop on the monitor and it worked without a hitch. Tried another monitor with the new Lenovo h405 and a new error came up. 'No signal, forced power saving mode' or something along those lines. So now I'm frustrated - it's not the monitor, PSU, graphics card, or anything. I got a professional to come in and try to hook it up but he was baffled as well - we tried to put it together for a few hours, but we got nowhere. We tried to reset the CMOS on the motherboard but even that did not change the fact the monitor would not give any signal to us. Help??

hey Conduitman,

Changing to power-saving results in losing picture on the screeen

Hi,
Product name: HP Pavilion dv6-6093ex Entertainment Notebook PC support.
Product number: LM610EA#A2N
When changing to power-saving GPU, then Radeon got disabled and no picture on the screeen is shown.
I really had been facing a problem with my Windows 7 Home premium 64Bit, then I have only done a repair install, which
didn't delete all the drivers and programs. However, before doing the repair install, I was recommended to uninstall AMD
Readon and Intel(R) Management Engine Interface.(AS shown below). Thus, I have uninstalled the AMD Readon, and Intel(R)Management Engine Interface.
Upgrading Windows will affect the following devices and/or programs:
These devices might not work properly after the upgrade. Before upgrading, we recommend updating the drivers for these
devices. Cancel the upgrade, open Control Panel and search for "update device drivers", or go to the device manufacturer's
website to search for updated drivers.
System devices: Intel(R) Management Engine Interface
These programs might not work properly after the upgrade. We recommend uninstalling these programs before upgrading. Cancel the upgrade, open Control Panel, and search for "uninstall a program". (Note: Programs marked as * can be safely reinstalled after the upgrade.)
ATI Catalyst Control Center *
When the repair install got completed, then I found that Grphics adapter is still functining well since there are no ! mark in front of the adapters: Intel(R) HD Graphics Family and Radeon(TM) HD 6770M in the device manager.
Once I changed the GUP from High-performance GPU to Power-saving GPU, then I lost the pircuter on the Screen.
When I lost the picuter on the screen while on Windows in normal mode, I booted to the safe mode, then opened the device manager, and I saw that Radeon(TM) HD 6770M was disabled
To get picture again, I enabled Radeon(TM) HD 6770M (screen shot below) while in Safe mode:
When restarting my PC and started Windows in the noraml mode, the picture returned on the screeen.
Whenever changing to power-saving GPU, then the same problem happens.
Will I need to reinstall the AMD High-Definition Graphics Driver, although there are no ! mark in front of the Intel(R) HD Graphics Family and Radeon(TM) HD 6770M in the device manager?

Thank you so much indeed,
Could you please take some of your precious time out to really answer these questions below of mine?
Firstly:: I really have run this Utility(amdcleanuputility) to remove all components of the prvious installation of AMD Radeon and Mobile Inte Graphics.
I was propmted that tool will do as it is shown below in the screen shot.
I agreed. Then, it completed. Is 'AMD cleanup utility' recommended by you?
Then, the graphics adapters in the device manager became as follows:
Secondly: I think that it is now the point to reinstall AMD High-Definition Graphics Driver_Software Packaging Numbr(SP55092)_Driver Version 8.882.2.3000.
Thirdly: Moreover, I would be saying that I lost the audio on my System once the (amdcleanuputility) has completed, although its icon is still intact(screen shot below)
Must I need to reinstall IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver_Sp55094_Version6.10.6345.0????
Finally:: in your link about downloading the drivers for my product name. I found Driver-Graphics (5) . However, all what I need is the finall one which is an already-downloaded file with me. Could you please let me know what about the other four graphics drivers????????

Power saving tipps for desktop PCs

Hi, lately I've been trying to make my boxes at home (router, desktop, fileserver) more power efficient. My energy bill was always kinda high and I think that I waste too much energy.
Most of my experience with computer related power saving comes from my laptop (maximize batterie time ). I've already taken some steps to minimize power consumption but I'm not sure what else could be done. If you have some ideas please let me know!
Some details about the steps I've taken so far:
router (24/7)
Its an really old stripped down mashine (P2) that is underclocked (hard).
It's currently running pfsense (FreeBSD based) that is installed on an old hdd. I was thinking about getting a small usb-stick and running the system on that one... would that be a good idea? (lifetime etc)
fileserver
Runs only when needed. In addition the cpu is undervolted (ondemand). Should be ok I guess.
desktop (24/7)
This one is a bit more tricky. It has pretty much up to date (-> power hungry) hardware but needs to run 24/7 most of the time (ssh, ftp, p2p). Downgrading can only be temporary because sometimes I need the performance (casual gaming, video encoding, photoshop etc...).
So far I did only 3 things:
1. hdds go to sleep when they are not used for 15 minutes --> hdparm -S 180
2. cpu undervolting --> cpufreq-set -g powersave
3. grafik card underclocking --> nvclock -n 250 -m 350 (nvidia only)
I'm a bit frightened to underclock the grafik card even lower... my screen got blocky and froze once while testing. ^^'
2 & 3 are done with a small script that I run when I leave the pc:
#!/bin/bash
if [ "$(cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor)" = "performance" ];
then cpufreq-set -g powersave && nvclock -n 250 -m 350 && xset dpms force off
else cpufreq-set -g performance && nvclock -r
fi
I've a shortcut for the script on my keyboard but some automation would be better if I think about it... triggered by afk time or sth like this.
If you guys have ideas what else could be tweaked please let me know!

You could also check out solid state drives for the desktop. I know very little about them, so it may be a good or bad idea.
Yeah flash drives uses less power but I wouldn't use them for a desktop pc. The price per GB is far worse compared to normal HDDs and the blocks can only be written around 100000 times... for a system disk this is not really acceptable (caching, temporary files etc). These SDDs are more designed for small (sub)notebooks imo because they have no mechanical parts what makes them more reliable.
For the router this would not a problem though.
omgwtfbyobbq wrote:A stick would definitely be cheaper! The HD power draw isn't as low as I thought it was but it's close. The power supply can be a huge draw like I mentioned before. There's a 20W and 40W difference at idle between a earthwatts 380 power supply and a couple generic power supplies I had lying around. I originally though my PIII used way more than my C7-D system, but after swapping power supplies I found out the PIII used less at idle than the C7-D even w/ two sound cards, a network card, and a video card.
Yeah a quality PSU will probably save allot. Currently the router uses an old generic power supply, so this is really sth i should look into. I have an enermax noisetaker that is not used atm so I'll see what difference it makes compared to the currently used PSU.
The power consumption of HDDs is really not that low (thx for the link). Around eight watts (Idle) for the tested HDDs. So putting the disks to sleep when they're not used is probably a good idea for the most people that leave the PC running for longer times. My desktop has 5 HDDs, so even when they are not really used they need around 40 watts for nothing. Old HDDs (like the one in my router) will probably need more power.
I've asked a friend of mine to lent me his digital wattage meter. With this I can make some detailed tests to see what tweaks are really useful to save power.
I'll post the results when I'm done (probably on the weekend). What I can say now is that the few tweaks I made on my desktop PC (first post) will probably save a bit. The temperature of the CPU and GPU drops around 10-15 °C, the ambient temperature drops allot as well. This pretty heavy considering that the case has a good airflow (2 80er fans in front of the hdds and one 120er fan at the back).

E72 "Activate power saving". Consequences????

I want to know DETAILS what happens when I push ON/OFF button and select "Activate power saving".
What are the negative effects of this?
Noise cancellation still works or NOT?
Does GPS work?
What else???
"The Nokia E72 features active noise cancellation and navigation as well as a digital compass."
The latest USER GUIDE says NOTHING ABOUT THIS! I used Ctrl-F to find "power saving". Basically nothing is said what happens in power saving mode!!!!
Languages: English, Finnish

it disables all UI effects (Theme transitions, etc.),
lowers display brightness to minimum. Brightness option in display settings is disabled.
switches the processor to a more power efficient mode (performance is noticeably lower)
instantly turns off connections when they aren't needed (e.g. WLAN connection gets disabled instantly after you open a web page, if you want to open another one then the device connects and then quickly disconnects again). As a result, push mail gets disabled. You will have to manually sync mails as long as power save mode is enabled.
Noise cancellation still works. GPS still works - in the same way as with the WLAN connection described above

When will the Verizon HTC One (M8) finally get the Extreme Power Saving Mode software update?

Other carriers (AT&T, Sprint) already have it, but Verizon is taking forever apparently.
When will Verizon customers be able to download and use this new mode?
Thanks!

I recently bought an HTC One m8 from Verizon, and like many other customers the Extreme Power-saving Feature was one of my keys factors to deciding to buy. I was very disappointed to learn after the fact that Verizon had not included, and has no intention to include the feature in the future. (Mentioned in other threads in the forum). I've read the argument made that Verizon never advertised the feature and never said it would be included with their version of the phone, but they also never went out of the way to warn perspective buyers that the feature, which is part of the m8 phone on other carriers and marketed by HTC as a part of their phone wouldn't be included. When people are researching phones before they decide what to get they read what features the manufacturer(s) have designed and implemented in those phones, not search to find all the things the carrier may have stripped from the phone.
It's impractical and offensive to tell a customer that its his/her responsibility every time they buy a phone from them to dig deep into website forums and look for what they decided to remove from it that the manufacturer had built, and advertised to be in their phone. This is the type of thing that is bad PR for Verizon, and something that will make customers go to other carriers. I don't want to offend some of the nice Verizon employees who want to help their customers and simply don't have the power to correct the issue themselves, but its in Verizon's best interest to either fix their network to work with this feature, or find/hire someone else who will. Doing it soon before the issue escalates and news of Verizon's statement to do nothing to correct the issue for their HTC One m8 customers spreads like wildfire and burns them.
I hope someone at Verizon doesn't let the rest of the company go on ignoring the issue and steps up to find a way to enable Extreme Power Saving Mode on the Verizon Network. Right now the impression many people have is something along the lines of: now that you've bought a phone from us, and signed up for a contract with us we don't care what you want and think.
In the meantime it would be a good idea to enable the option in the phone with a popup message when enabled that reads something along the lines of: Verizon has concluded that in some cases Extreme Power Saving Mode can cause network issues. If you experience network issues please disable extreme power saving mode and return to one of the other power modes. Verizon will continue to research the issue, and will institute a fix if/when a solution is found.

Nokia N8 Screen Saver & Power-Saving Mode

Few issues after 24hrs of N8 usage...
1) My Screen Saver stopped working... screen stays lit indefinitely, even when locked... after multiple restarts and lots of frustration it came back, but this issue has already happened twice - surely a bug
2) Power-Saving mode doesn't really make sense unless it is customisable... I am on a 3G only network, power-saving enables GSM-only... see the flaw?
Appreciate your feedback,
Mike

Regarding ISSUE #1 (the screensaver failure), I have a PERFECT solution!!!
However, I am not sure if this will work for you, because I have SPB Mobile Shell, but it is worth a try!
1) Make sure you have the widget for the MUSIC PLAYER on one of your main operating page.
2) Turn OFF your phone regularly. (NO NEED to hard rest by hold over 8 secs)
3) Turn ON your phone.
4) Once the phone loaded up, immediate play any song through your music player. (Need to be done before your phone auto-locks)
5) Lock your phone with your side-lock button; your screensaver should come back.
Both my g/f & I owns a Nokia N8, and we both experienced the screensaver failure problem. My N8 was easy to fix by many people's solution of just simply reset, and it automatically fixed the problem. But My g/f's N8 was stubborn, and wouldn't turn the screensaver back on by this simple reset method. Later I discovered the above method, and it worked every time! I think somehow the music player is triggering the screensaver and forces it to stay on.
Well, although we somehow surpass this issue, but Nokia still need to fix this problem. Nokia N8 is a great phone, it shouldn't have such a simple mistake in it. This makes the perfect phone imperfect!!! Anyway, please let me know if this method works for you guys, thanks.

I Can't Switch between 'power-saving GPU' and 'High-Performance GPU' in Catalyst Control Center

Hi,
Whatever if my computer was only on the battery or was only plugged in to the main power supply. In Catalyst Control Center, I noticed that 'High-Performance GPU' was always selected', although the 'automatically select power-saving GPU when on battery' was enabled. Also, When I tried to switch into the 'power-saving GPU', there was no response at all. However, when my laptop was only on the battery, I noticed the the try of switching into 'Power-Saving GPU' results in shutting down my computer suddenly.
Thus, I had to open the Device Manager, then I disabled 'Radeon HD'. After that, 'power-Saving GPU' was selected(Screen shot below), regardless of whether my laptop was on only the battery or was only plugged in to the main power supply. To switch it into 'High-performance GPU' again, I only must enable 'Radeon HD' in the Device Manager since clicking on 'High-performance GPU' in the Catalyst Control Center didn't respond.
As conclusion, 'High-performance GPU is always selected, regardless of whether my computer was only the Battery, or was only plugged in to the main power supply. To let 'power-saving GPU' is selected, then 'Radeon HD' must be disabled in the Device Manager.

4hr30 battery life to 2hr30 after following power saving wiki

So I thought I might be able to squeeze a little more time out of my laptop. What an awful mistake :-(
I followed
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ma … management
Which led me to
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Powerdown
and
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Power_management
and apparently this is "considered by many to be the de facto utility for power saving"
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Laptop_Mode_Tools
I installed powerdown-git, laptop-mode-tools, and edited /etc/modprobe.d/audio_powersave.conf, /etc/sysctl.d/laptop.conf and /etc/udev/rules.d/70-wifi-powersave.rules
And my battery life dropped by over 2 hours after editing . After reverting the changes and rebooting, my battery life is now at 3 hours from full charge. I've still lost 90~105 minutes after removing everything. Not sure what to do now other than a reinstall, which I would really rather not do.
No, my brightness setting isn't any different from before. It's been the same throughout and, a little off-topic, I've never been able to change it. I press the brightness buttons, the brightness bar goes up/down, but there's no difference. I tried pommed-light (a recommended by the wonderful wiki) and that failed to do anything, including swapping the fn key functions. So, if anyone can shed some light onto getting pommed-light to actually work or enabling the screen brightness buttons on a MacBookPro10,1 that would be fantastic.
Edit: Also, noticing a long time between entering login details in cinnamon and getting into the desktop. It used to blackscreen for about a second, now it takes about 5s, which is longer than booting takes.

Did you *uninstall* the programs you'd installed? Did you check what automatic setup they perform as part of the installation process, e.g. Arch's ".install" files?
Hard drives are fickle about which power-saving modes they support, so that's something to check, especially since you indicate a slowdown.

KDE and fglrx module - power saving

Hello,
yesterday I switched from gnome to KDE 4.6 (stable) and have a problem regarding my graphics card driver:
I use the proprietary driver fglrx (11.3), which worked fine for me under gnome, but now with KDE the graphics card doesn't go into power-saving mode. So the fan is really loud all the time and with "aticonfig --odgc" I see that the core clock is at maximum. Under gnome the core frequency was not so high and the card managed to go into powersaving mode.
Has anybody the same problem and can help me?
Thanks,
Matse

Hi,
this did not solve my problem. What helps is to change the "Composit Type" from "opengl" to "XRender" in system-settings "desktop effects" (or similar, translated on the fly from german). But this is no solution for me because with XRender kde is really slow even with all effects disabled and by the way do I really like the desktop effects
And "aticonfig --odgc" shows a GPU-load of "0%" but does not lower core clock or core voltage, that's really strange.
Any suggestions besides buying a nvidia card?

Laptop-mode-tools no power saving

Hi,
I use laptop-mode-tools for several months and it worked fine, however lately when my laptop runs on battery it seems that no power saving options kick in, since I get a battery time around 1 and half an hour, while it used to be 4 hours.
It may be connected to that I removed initscripts from the system, however laptop-mode.service is enabled and started, journal says events are picked up, laptop-mode-tool modules are loaded, I can see e.g. that cpu freq is cut back, so I'm confused a bit. I spent hours going through the config files and browsing the journal, but I must have missed something.
Please advise where to look or what to check. Thank you.
If you need any log or config file, additional information, please let me know.

Have you tried powerdown? Here's a link to one of their threads. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=134109&p=1
Link to aur = https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=57421
Wiki = https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Powerdown
It is just a bunch of scripts written by a forum member. I just came across it recently as I only used arch on desktop until now. Fuduntu was boasting their battery life preset on their distro but I find that with these scripts and changing them to your needs, you get far better results. I have a 9 cell on my asus eee 1005ha getting 11-12 hours of internet browsing and writing.
