Power efficiency is more aggressive regarding using lower clock speeds. What Chill does is setting framerate limits for when it thinks you are not benefiting (so see it like a dynamic frame rate target control.) Only huge downside is that chill often doesn't work on even supported platforms. This means that you will continuously run on the lowest framerate target set by you.
Good vid if you guys have a laptop like me you better remove battery and play with power effeciency OFF Having it on makes battery life hold so there is no need using it if you remove it cause it will be "power saving mode" instead of performance. Im not that good with english i hope you got my point cheers!
Radeon Software has always been able to give each game its own settings, in the New Crimson drivers simply choose the game you want specific settings for instead of choosing "Global Settings". Each game will show available supported settings like Chill, but i think all will show Frame Rate Target Control which will also act like Chill. The advantage to Chill is that it will also improve frame times. And of course you can set clocks and fan profiles to each individual game as well. But for myself I set FRTC to 60fps and forget it.
I have a Sapphire RX 580 and my GPU usage keeps fluctuating from 0% to 99/100%. I would try to turn off Power Efficiency, but the button just isn't there. Any idea how to make it appear?
