    Limiting Resolution


    I am fully aware that I can change the screen resolution from the settings. What I need to know is if I reduce the resolution will the overall inward data be limited to that rate or not. The issue that concerns me is that some TV streaming providers offer a selectable resolution SD or HD while some just adapt to the total connection infrastructure capability and default to best. When I am in remote areas the only connection available to me is 4G which can sustain HD but at a horrendous cost. I therefore prefer the SD variant.


    Can the operating system deliberately reduce the data rate and so force the provider to do the same?. This is purely an issue of connection economics.

    :)

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    Here's a quick laundry list:

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Step-by step overclocking in Wattman
    Fan speeds
    Power limit
    Temp limit
    Voltages
