The default powersaving mode is too aggressive for low GPU load games like Counter Strike etc. This makes the cores clock down way too fast. That behavior hasn’t been changed even though it’s been a known issue for 2 years . If you experience microstuttering with an RDNA2 (presumably RDNA3 too) card, try this udev rule:

I have set it to “5” (compute) which is the best setting in my experience. “1” (3D fullscreen) should work too. Sudo didn’t work for me, I needed to be logged in as root for this for some reason.

Thanks for the hints about this https://www.reddit.com/user/Lawstorant/ :) Just wanted to give this fix more attention because it really really makes a difference

    If it’s the same setting a corectrl->advanced->power profile, this one has an issue for me, it doesn’t max the clocks for some reason, however the other profiles, except power saving, do max the card clocks. For context, I have a 6800.

      That explains why compute feels better. That whole power profile situation is just bad honestly. Then again on nvidia I had to fix like 10 issues so I’m still happy with this single issue one on AMD
