    Power usage


    My Toshiba Satellite will show full battery one minute and in 5 min. will send message that battery is low and needs charged. Do I need to buy a new battery (3 yrs) or has Microsoft done something to cause this? I am not getting a light when I power up like I did before. Thanks for any help you can give me.

    :)

    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
    Core speeds
    Memory speeds
