AMD Ryzen 5 4650 Pro iGPU utilization [RESOLVED]

It seems that a lot of GPU problems revolve around specific versions of drivers. Though AMD has their own support structure, you can often learn from information reported by others who fold.

AMD Ryzen 5 4650 Pro iGPU utilization [RESOLVED]

Post by Darryl »

Hello all, just posting this post to create crumbs for other noobs who have obtained a AMD RYZEN "Renoir" 4350GE, 4350G, 4650GE, 4650G or 4670GE , 4670G or "PRO" processer through grey market channels looking for help maximizing their iGPU performance in crunching units.

I just installed FAH about a week ago and noticed the GPU utilization was virtually nonexistent even with the slider on 'HIGH' .

The GPU core count was showing as '1' and the work unit 'time to complete' clocks on the GPU slot were something on the order of 24 hours or more. ( Pentium 4 level)

CPU numbers look good. Showing 11 CPUS crunching units up at a rate of one every 90-120 minutes or so. No worries there. But it seems the iGPU is barely there.

I confirmed via task manager and the iGPU utilization in windows was approx 1% on the older client.

STEPS UNDERTAKE SO FAR : Updated client to latest rev 7.6.21 and now GPU shows 14:0 which tells me the new version is at least 'seeing' the hardware (7 CU's on Amd Renoir model 4650 Pro) but the apparent speed of work being completed and client utilization of the iGPU cores appears to have increased.

Based on windows task manager says utilization is now approx 4% on average +/- 1%.

So while there is some improvement, I think there is obviously a lot more the hardware can do. I'm running a Asrock 570 Steel Legend board with excellent cooling and even under load, my temps are well below throttle (60-65C) The slight bump in utilization did not touch my temps - another indicator the cores are being underutilized.

I'm guessing this is a known issue but the numbers of processors on the street at this time is so minute that it is not a priority and probably on the list of 'things to do' in future to be addressed in future client revs and that's fine. If it's on the list I'll wait.

MY Q: Is there anything I can do RIGHT NOW to force the client to utilize at least some of those iGPU CU cores to a higher degree?

Thank you.

Darryl from Tom's Hardware team.

PS: I was futzing around in windows task manager and discovered the default data display is 3D and if you hit the drop menu you have other options including two "compute" graphs. Now HERE is where I see some utilization.
Compute 0 IS zero.
Compute 1 is running 98-100% with occasional dips to 96-97, so it appears there IS some crunch going on. I timed the current at the .001 percent level (takes 7 seconds to go from 58.25 to 58.26 and extrapolated) and it looks like 19 hours to complete but work units vary in size so I cant rely on that.

Re: AMD Ryzen 5 4650 Pro iGPU issue: iGPU slot Core utilizat

Post by Joe_H »

If you are seeing utilization rates of 98-100% by using the Compute settings in Task Manager, then the GPU is being used as much as it can be. F@h does not use 3D graphics processing. The other thing to check is what clock speed the iGPU is running at, if throttled that will slow it down. That may take different monitoring tools than Task Manager.

Reducing the CPU thread count may speed up the GPU processing, but the completion times you are seeing are consistent with other reports of the iGPUs included in the Ryzen processors.

One thing to note, it takes the client several percent of progress for its estimates of TPF, PPD and ETA to become relatively accurate.

Understood. I'm not overclocking and everything is stock speeds and well cooled and nothing throttling. I just wanted to be sure I'm getting everything I can get out of it. Thank you.
