I never did find a solution to the core and memory clocks problem or the fan speed problem with the radeon drivers but found out that with the amdgpu drivers I could get the fan speed control with a program called amdgpu-fan. Somebody made an app that did all that as long as you were using the amd proprietary drivers but it didn't work with radeon or amdgpu drivers. The problem was that I could not clock my card back down to amd reference because asus had upped it a bit and I no longer had fan speed control. Fortunately the radeon driver was quite good by that time and I actually didn't really feel like I had lost any performance. It has been good to me but things got a tad more difficult when amd stopped supporting my Radeon hd7870.

I started on Linux with whatever openSUSE was called at version 10 back in 2006 and basically have used nothing else since. Anyway I have a question for you all.įirst a little background to my situation. I think I've posted here before when I was checking out Mint once before but can't seem to recover my old password.
