This is the only way that reduces coil whine on my Sapphire RX Vega 64 NITRO+ Although buzzing sound is still there a little bit, I'm more than happy now.

CMMChris Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 You can further reduce it by setting P6 and P7 clocks to the same value and maybe reduce the clocks a bit to something between 1447 and 1562. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pavo Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Just wanted to give anyone else with a Asus STRIX OC Vega 64 a heads up. Asus has an update for the VBIOS and it fixes the fan speeds in Mojave. Mine was running at 2400rpms at idle but after updating the VBIOS the fans run at 900rpms at idle and spin up normally now when under load. So.... everyone else that are having fan issues, you might want to check the GPU manufacture that you have to see if they have an updated VBIOS. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think its an actual VBIOS update but a fan curve update to be honest. Because its the same version as it was prior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you @CMMChris Hi how did you change the voltage? VGTab? Got the same card and everything works great but i have this lil coil whine AND my scores are not so good with macOS. Can't reach more than 190000 on Geekbench, and less than 29500 on Luxmark (LuxBall) for example.

nefilim Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 (edited) Just wanted to say thanks to @CMMChris and everyone for their trailblazing and contributions, I just recently bought a SAPPHIRE Radeon RX Vega 64 DirectX 12 21275-03-20G 8GB card - looks more or less like a reference card. I tried a few things suggested in this thread, PP_DisableFanControl=1 (just had my fan constant, no change with or without load), PP_DisableFanControl=3 (did nothing at all, fans off). Used Chris' handy spreadsheet with the values commonly used, see below. Removed all the other properties, definitely more responsive now, turns off <= 55C, ramps up with load all the way to 3500rpm, keeping it to ~80C. Numbers are average, ~28k in Luxmark, just over 200k in geekbench. I'll fine tune a bit more now that I know it's working. Hopefully, this is somewhat useful to others with this card. Noticed a few curious things: 0rpm shows 60% after reaching 100% (~3500rpm) it will stay that way after the load has been removed and the temp has gone under 40C ... and then it will very slowly back off on the rpm until temp reaches 32C when I was still injecting PP_DisableFanControl - set as a Number in Clover Configurator, shows as <integer>1</integer> in the XML but in IOREG it shows up as DATA. according to iStat the Core Clock only reaches 1.54GHz at full load, I was expecting 1.63GHz (P7) Ok the only problem I'm having is that it oscillates between 0rpm and 2713rpm (nothing in between) during no/minimal load to maintain the target temp of 55C - 2k rpm is quite noisy already, not sure why the minimum RPM of 200 is being ignored, it would be much better if somehow it could just use very low rpm constantly and to maintain idle temperature - should be less audible over the longer term. When I disable EnableZeroRPM (=0) - the fan is just always on at ~2170rpm. Edited December 28, 2018 by nefilim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for your hard work. I used this for a Sapphire RX Vega64 and everything works fine except the minimum fan speed is at 1700rpm and it not go any lower than that. The fan will speedup to a normal speed under-load (somewhere around 2400rpm) which is great. It's just that lower fan speed is a bit high, 700rpm would be way nicer, any solution out there? - Thank again Chris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMMChris Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Your "Minimum PWM Limit" likely is wrong due to it being a different card. Please extract the PowerPlayTable from your VBIOS using OverDriveNTool and check the value of it, then set it accordingly in the generator. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinmunster Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 (edited) Hi CMMChris, I own a ASUS Radeon RX Vega 56 ROG Strix OC, which is a custom design. I extracted first my PP_PhmSoftPowerPlayTable from the Win-Registry / org. BIOS to compare. (card is switched to quiet-profile) But I was surprised to recognize that my raw-value table has a different length (679 byte, vs. 694 in your excel) and not only has diifferent values. Some byte positions/functions seems to be equal (like power limit%), but some are located on different one (like max temperature, D24/E24 vs. S24/T24.) I will try the injection tomorrow ..

CMMChris Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 (edited) Your screenshot shows the standard overclocking options of OverdriveNTool. You are at the wrong place. Download a copy of your Graphics Card VBIOS. Then you need to extract your PowerPlayTable from the VBIOS of your graphics card using OverdriveNTool. Please klick on the icon in the title bar to find this option. It does output a .reg file that contains the PowerPlayTable.

CMMChris Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 (edited) @nefilim You can't use the extracted PowerPlayTable directly due to the separators in between the hex values. If you did, your card has entered fail-safe mode which might make it look like fan control is working because it is running at a fixed speed. However, performance does suffer a lot in fail-safe mode because the card runs in a fixed power state (boot state). Please run a benchmark or check your clocks to see if you are in fail-safe mode (no clocks displayed in that case). And just to make that clear: If your extracted PPT would result in working fan control, it would be working without the PPT as well because macOS does read the PPT inside your cards BIOS to get the proper settings.

Hi CMMChris! I have been trying your excel tool and these settings seemed like the best I've tested so far. I have Sapphire Nitro+ RX Vega 64 and still getting some coil whine noise on macOS (on win10 it's silent). Would you suggest any specific setting for Nitro+ RX Vega 64? I suppose yours is a different brand RX Vega 64. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yigpig Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 (edited) Just tried the settings suggested with PP_DisableDIDT=1 and PP_DisablePowerContainment=1. Geekbench: 200302 LuxMark: 31101 The results are pretty much the same maybe a slightly lower than before. Coil whine noise sound level is the same (not too bad). I will monitor these settings for a while. I guess it is impossible to get rid of the coil whine 100% with Sapphire Nitro+ Rx Vega 64. And should I keep PP_DisableDIDT=1 and PP_DisablePowerContainment=1 settings there even if I switched back to previous numbers? Thank you so much Chris!
