so everytime you hit click on "Apply" button on the "Adavenced" tab, the clock is resetted to default?

edit:

I've gone through the code and it seems that what happened when you click on apply is the execution of this command:

Code:
   waas -c /config/advanced.conf > /dev/null
    killall monitordcdc

in /config/advanced.conf there's a JSON rappresentation of the data contained in the Advanced tab.

This means  that waas command reset all the default value for the PLL. Unluckily there's no source code for waas executable.


Yes, I believe so as the Amps drop.


so you're impling that setting the clock to the default value lower the Amps, despite the fact that you're increasing the voltage per die?

So what would happen if I remove that command?

nothing.

your overclock settings will stay in place, but your change to voltage won't get applied :/

give IRC a try and see if hno is hanging around..
