Amd performance tool

AMD uProf profiler follows a statistical sampling-based approach to collect profile data to identify the performance bottlenecks in the application. AMD uProf offers user friendly UI to view and analyze the profile data thereby helps to optimize wide variety of applications, drivers, game engines etc. AMD uProf profiler can be used to monitor the frequency, thermal and energy metrics of various components in the system. Please use Developer Community for bug reports, support and feature requests.

User Guide. Release Notes. Developer Central. Version 3. AMD uProf offers: Performance Analysis — to identify runtime performance bottlenecks of the application. System Analysis — to monitor system performance metrics Power Profiling — to monitor thermal and power characteristics of the system. Energy Analysis — to identify energy hotspots in the application Windows only.

Size 8. Bitness bit. That's not entirely factual, however, at least not if you're happy to get into the finer details in your pursuit for absolute PC power. For every CCX in your Zen 2 processor—each one is fit with up to four cores—there's an opportunity for even greater performance. You simply load up the CTR software and it will evaluate every core complex on your chip.

How it judges this is down to various factors and variables, but essentially CTR helps you find those that will operate at the highest frequency for the least amount of power. Once the software knows the lay of the land and the user has run the diagnostic step, you can then hit the start button and let CTR work its magic, adjusting frequencies and voltages to maintain optimum performance and energy efficiency.

One you've found the perfect setting, hit create and save profile, and head to the built-in benchmark to see where it got you. There's still a degree of the so-called silicon lottery involved in this process—some Ryzen processors will naturally clock higher for less voltage than others. But hey, CTR is an easy way to find that information and reap the benefits, whatever they may be.

And the reason for such a tool as this comes down to the very core of the Zen 2 architecture. The Ryzen Threadripper X has a lot more core clusters in it than, say, the six-core Ryzen 5 What CTR is able to do is hone in on clock speeds at a CCX level—get right down to the silicon with granularity and flexibility. Figures provided by the developer show up to a 5 percent performance improvement in Cinebench R20 scoring, using the Ryzen Threadripper X, thanks to CTR.

With Zen 3 sure to follow Zen 2's lead, we can expect there to be similar uses for such a tool with the next generation of Ryzen processors too.
