    Odd temperature readout on the Radeon HD 8650G

    This is my GPU: Everything looks... fine, apart from the TMU count being reported as 48. I'm not sure if this is incorrect. This is where it starts to look weird, and it certainly shocked me that the HD 8650G could be idling at such a temperature. However, HWInfo64 v6.40-4330 reports a...

    HD 4600 throttles due to 'GPU POWER' limit, any ideas?

    It also works on my 4000M as well. Thanks a lot for the addition of this convenient feature, I initially thought you would advise people with this problem to use RWEverything instead. I can't express my gratitude enough for this, so I thought testing it would be the most I could do to repay...

    HD 4600 throttles due to 'GPU POWER' limit, any ideas?

    I'm absolutely sure that I don't have the Dynamic Platform and Thermal Framework driver installed, as it doesn't show up in the device manager. It's not in the 'System devices' category, and it doesn't have its own specific category displayed in here. I'm guessing that it was only meant for...

    HD 4600 throttles due to 'GPU POWER' limit, any ideas?

    Ah, that explains it. For a second I thought it was unusual for it to be blank. I went with your power limit setting of 20 watts, and it seems that it has completely eliminated the HD 4600's throttling problem. I guess it's solved, but should I be worried about bit 23, 22, 19, and 18 being set...

    HD 4600 throttles due to 'GPU POWER' limit, any ideas?

    Thanks for the informative reply, I didn't know that MSR 0x640 had something to do with this... As it's blank, nothing is stored in that register for some reason. I have a feeling that something is definitely not right with the UEFI, because I certainly don't remember my Core i7-3540M (in...

    HD 4600 throttles due to 'GPU POWER' limit, any ideas?

    I believe this issue has something to do with the HD 4600's power limits, but I'm not exactly sure if that's the actual problem. According to ThrottleStop 8.70.6, it indicates a red 'GPU POWER' box to display that it's throttling hard. This is how it looks under the influence of power limit...
