Performance Table Entries

In this window advanced users can edit the Performance Table entries as a whole. It will provide a view on the tables presence and also if some are inactive.

So what are the different sections we can spot on this view and what do they actually represent:

  • Amount of Performance Tables Entries: This number shows how many entries the performance table contains.
  • Amount of Active Performance Table Entries: This number determines how many of the entries the driver will use and are therefore marked as active.

The relationship between the amount of active performance table entries (APTE) and the entries themself can be described as follows:

  • If the ATPE is 03, the Performance Table Entry 1 is used as 2D mode, Entry 2 as Throttling mode and Entry 3 as 3D mode setting.
  • If the ATPE is 02, the Performance Table Entry 1 is used as 2D mode, and Entry 2 as 3D mode setting. No Throttling available.
  • If the ATPE is 01, the Performance Table Entry 1 is used in both 2D and 3D mode.
  • If the ATPE is 00, none of the entries is used.

So for example if you have a BIOS which has only one mode, ATPE = 01, and you would like to use different 2D/3D clocks, you can set the ATPE to 02 and so have 2 active performance levels. As the previous inactive level may be not fully configured, you can copy the data from your former only active level.

Voltage Table Editor

From this window advanced users can edit and modify the Voltage Table entries depending on their own thoughts and needs, this will provide more functions and is also more comfortable. It is like an advanced version of VID Mode present on the Voltages Tab. The user can change the amount of Active Entries, the Entries Label and the Entries VIDs.

The color marking gives extra help to see if there are some disabled entries, e.g. on some cards the amount of entries is set to 0, so users can't change voltages, and NiBiTor's Exact or VID mode shows no voltages to select, but the voltage table contains some entries. By this we provide a view on the voltage entries to see how many potential entries there are and which can be enabled if needed, and to set the proper amount of active entries.

The different sections that can be viewed and changed when needed according to your needs:

  • Voltage Table Area: This shows the voltage table and surrounding bytes. This area is scanned, and the structure that looks like the header of the voltage table is marked with light blue. Structures that look like table entries are marked in a light yellow.
  • Voltage Table Header: The only item you can change here is the amount of active entries. This can help some people which have this value set to 0 to enable voltage changing.
  • Voltage Table Entries: Here you can edit the entries of the voltage table, or even add new entries if you see there is enough space for them. An entry consist of a label eg. "1.3V" as identifier for the driver and the actual VID eg. "03" which is set to the voltage regulator. You must note that the voltage label is not responsible for the output voltage, it is only used by the driver to select correct VID.

We hope that this will help some of the knowledgable users who know what to change and have some experience in modifying Voltage related items.
