Hello guys I am OC my GPU 7900XTX and it work well but I use in past msi afterburner.
after I see that guide 4:40-6:30

I switch to OC with AMD adrenalin
my core clock set to 3010 as oc.
I get in one game with oc 186FPS ultra 2K so the problem is after I set a minimum as 2600MHZ my GPU usage stay on 100% and my FPS go deep down to 110FPS insterad 185 that was before.
if I set min frequency to 2500 all work well.

so the question why it happened and it show GPU in that case on 100%
and how I should to know how much I need to set minimum frequency?
i saw basic MHZ in that game was 2580MHZ and when I set it it jump to 2900MHZ and fps drop from 185 to 110 or someting like that.

I understand that if I use it I dont get any drops in easy places in game I am right?

I need to set it or just OC without that option?

For RDNA 3 it's best to leave the minimum frequency on auto, because you could come in a situation where your power/voltage limits will cause GPU clock stretching and loss of performance.

Focus on finding a stable undervolt, then OC your VRAM and finally only slightly increase the max GPU Core frequency

Don't touch the minimum frequency.

Undervolt until you get crashes then increase the maximum clock speed until it makes no difference to performance. I achieved a 10% overclock this way on my reference 7900 XT.
