In this video, I show you how to get the most out of your 2000, 3000, 4000, and 5000 series AMD RYZEN mobile CPU using an awesome application called AMD Tuning Utility from JamesCJ. This application allows you to up the TDP on your mobile Ryzen APU and in turn get higher boost clocks, stabilize CPU and GPU clocks, and in turn, make your laptop or mini PC faster and in some cases up to 50-60 percent gain! Use this tutorial at your own risk I am not liable for any damages that may occur from using AMD APU Tuning Utility or RyzenADJ, Please use at your own risk! I recommend using a laptop cooling pad and wall power when using this application.

I'd say upping it to 20-25W is safer for daily use. This video shows that you can theoritically give 30W to those APU but you need a lot of cooling and also it can kill the VRM faster. Maybe if the app has an undervolt settings it will make it a lot more safer to push the CPU.

@ETA Prime Thanks for the video! I'm gonna test it on my R5 3500U HP Pavilion 15 once I get a cooling pad. Max advertised TDP should be 35W but I'll go with 28W first and if I feel comfortable enough, I'll up it to 30W. I want to be cautious since my laptop is the only PC I currently have and I can't afford anything else at this moment. I can run it off the wall all the time without caring about killing the battery since it's pretty much dead and at this point I'm no longer interested in getting a replacement but rather a new laptop/desktop PC.

AATU tutorial starts at 5:45 As of this writing, AATU has been superseded by Universal Tuning Utility. UTU overheated my Beelink SER5 Pro (R7 5800H) mini pc and I just set it to Balanced preset. I set it to start at system boot now it abruptly shuts down soonest the preset is auto applied. Update 1: I managed to close the app from the system tray before it applied the preset. I uninstalled it. Update 2: It disabled my network adapter. It fails with a Code 10 - This device cannot start. Update 3: I power cycled the mini pc by, shutting it down, disconnecting the power cable, holding the power button for 30s, and waiting for 10mins before reconnecting the cable then turning it back on. THAT WORKED. Proceed at your own risk. I would suggest to stay away from the new app and stick with Ryzen Controller 2.6.0 Stable.

Nice help for some notebook, my own nasus notebook does actually handle 30W TDP on 5500U on Standard, going down to 15W only in battery mode. When I bought the Notebook it was at 36W on stock but that got changed as it often hit the 95°C temp limit and throttled, leaving a unstable performance. Now it's 30W and it does reach 5600 Points in Geekbench Multi, 7070Points in Cinebench R23, and 15100 Points in Geekbench compute Vulkan.

[@beegyoshi6525]

I really hope this stuff works on the Steam Deck somehow atleast when plugged in

[@dimitriid]

I think it will be doable, but don't expect Valve to do it: One of the news items about the steam deck is that Valve has gone on record saying they won't offer any performance uplift at all from "docking" the steam deck. This can only be attributed at the cooling solution constrains since we know power constrains wouldn't be an issue plugged in but heat would if the headsink can't handle it, and everything seems to point to that. I even expect Valve to not even enable the option on the bios by default so it will b e a fairly complicated process involving flashing the bios more likely, probably not worth it. Since those APUs on the steam deck will be on DDR5 and using RDNA 2 (vs DDR4 and Vega cores here) I would expect the performance to be similar to this laptop chips at 30 watts with the steam deck at just 15 watts: the gains on performance will make up for the reduced power limit so until it's actually out for testing I wouldn't worry too much.

[@dreadavis9751]

Cooling will be a problem, but we can try the gaming phone coolers

[@astrahcat1212]

Yes because it's built on Linux, so unless you can't use the console, there is a way somehow.

[@raszelast]

Even if cooling is an issue, it might be able to be undervolted to get better performance at the same 15W tdp.

[@robertschmitt3356]

I was planning to do this on the steamdeck when I got it but apparently Valve has confirmed it will have it's own onboard CPU tuning including TDP control (unclear whether it's gonna be a custom driver feature or a bios utility but it will be natively possible)

[@vmafarah9473]

For best result: 1.Ram must be in dual channel. Also use fastest supported ram. Ryzen CPU and GPU are heavily dependen on ram speed than Intel. 2.reduce CPU usage to 95% from 100. There by reduce CPU temperature and will help iGPU to boost longer. 3.increase GPU wattage between 25-30. Use 30W if you have a cooler. Or at least lifet laptops back side by 1inch from table for a 10°C reduction. 4.Under volt CPU so,that you don't need cooler any more. 5.change CPU thermal paste. 6.Try to get debloated windows 10 or 11 light For better 1% low in games.Since most games run around 30fps.

[@nathanlamaire]

On some laptops will have soldered RAM which makes it even more limited for what RAM you can use. Even if you have RAM with same size but with much faster speed, the system won't utilise the extra speed because dual-channel RAM requires the RAM to run at about the same speed as the internal RAM. Even worse, you can't use RAM with different size because the system won't run dual-channel on it.

I love this utility hp limited my laptop to 15w there was no way for to access hifgen bios settings , I have high end desktop so no need for mid high end laptop bought the hp 2200u 2 core 2threads lap for £250 brand new 2 or so years ago , it's still a nippy laptop as long as you don't push it too hard multi tasking soon after I upgraded ram added another 4gb module of 2400mhz for £4 at cex bargain :), just recently got rid of the dhotty slow lite on data SSD bought a crucial gen 3 1tb nvme was on sale for £67 bargain , with this utility on battery I go from 720 in cpuz multi core to 1120mhz .When it comes to single core it's gone 320mhz to 368mhz that's 3750H / 3770 score ! I have yet to test on battery just discovers this utility today after getting fed up with ryxen controller always popping up and not working all the time

I have a problem with my Laptop. The TPP is 'stuck' at 22 W, and my temps are arount 60 Degrees. I can't seem to push it harder. I have a Lenovo Yoga 7 gen 6 with a 5800U

Because it’s intel i see many laptop that use intel tiger-lake set to 28tdp w

@@zwart9881 idk why they didn't make a tdp setting on the bios.

Hopefully someone made a tutorial for the 2500U.

I have the Minisforum HM80 mini PC with the Ryzen 4800U APU. I was wondering if I can raise the TDP or if it is recommended. Also what would the best TDP for this mini pc?

[@22stunt45]

@ETA Prime can you please do a video on using this on a desktop? Thanks

[@robertkubrick3738]

I would use Ryzen Master on a desktop.

[@tuber2kh]

Is the BIOS choice for intelligent cooling/extreme/battery saving the same as the Func-Q cool-n-quiet setting? All my Lenovo's have the Func-Q feature. I assume the BIOS way is just another way to the same setting?

[@alexryusandi]

I think so

[@skellurip]

[@andy9841]

Great video. Do you know if I can use this to turn an old A8 APU?

[@raszelast]

AMD Overdrive should work for older chips. I was able to get a 20% boost in Cinebench on my A10 7300, but no such luck with PCSX2. Good luck!

[@Nightshardyeet]

I would not really increase the voltage, I'd rather undervolt my APU. You will also get higher fps at lower temps so if you then overclock the APU (you should not make high jumps in frequency) you can get the same performance-if not better than when just increasing wattage. You maybe can combine these two things too (Idk).

[@Henchman1977]

I have the same apu (4500u) in a new Dell Inspiron 14 7000 2n1. I don't see anything in the bios similar to the Lenovo and running the app has no effect on tdp (stuck at 15w). Any thoughts? Thanks!

[@hardy83]

Some OEMs completely lock down the bios and don't let you edit much. My partner has the HP x360 with the 4500u and the bios is crap where you can basically just change the date. I'm sure Dell is the same.

[@krazycharlie]

HP is infamous for limiting the options on their BIOS, whether laptops or desktop PCS and the reason for that is so you can have a longer battery life and better temps. Maybe Dell followed this same philosophy with your laptop, hence why you can't find any power-related options in its BIOS.

[@thevlaka]

Neat!

[@MARCOSCOFFEE]

hello, for me cpuz benchmark is giving me a little increse in the score but in cinebench 32 the score reduce to half.. why is that ??

[@himanologanor4093]

using "Ryzen Controller" since long (now at version 2.4.1) i do advise all to lower the max temps a little to not bake your chip over time...one problem only, are you all sure the CPU VRMs are designed to deliver more than the factory limit of every laptop ? because if you burn them you will burn the CPU as well and more

[@McKiwi2]

He did recommend a laptop cooler, the VRM's may not have heatsinks or have direct active cooling, but increasing pressure and airflow may help. MOSFETs can handle quite a bit of heat.

[@himanologanor4093]

@@McKiwi2 yes they can but i`ve seen many without any heatsink on them , these new gaming laptops usualy have a bigger block of metal covering VRMs too, sadly the heat will go to the CPU too...the real problem is that i`m waiting for years now to see something similar to that awesome Intel undervolting soft but we still don`t have such for Ryzen laptops

[@McKiwi2]

@@himanologanor4093 I understand your concern, but the VRM's will throttle once they reach their thermal or electrical limit by default. For example, the 2019 Dell XPS line up suffered from VRM throttling when at high load due to the VRM design, at stock. Using this software might not really do anything for a laptop with a weak VRM spec, but I'm pretty certain it won't kill it. I'm not saying there aren't risks involved, when it comes to adjusting these things there's always a risk however small it may be.

[@himanologanor4093]

​@@McKiwi2 another use i found to these softs, when i wanna watch a nice 4k movie in total silence on the HDMI out, i`m lowering the max temperature to 64 degrees celsius (every laptop will have another temp) at which my fans will completely turnoff but the 4800H has enough power to do anything even with that restriction

[@SilentProti]

@@himanologanor4093 to my knowledge under volting ryzens doesn't do much and using ryzen controller is good enough

ya i had did this when i used a ryzen 3 2200u laptop but before they re-brand to ryzen apu tuner i was there when it was ryzen conttroler and it amde my laptop go from being practicaly unuseable for games to semi useable for games

[@medunno6234]

must the apu tuning utility be minimised all the time or can i just close it and forget about it?

[@fairplayer916]

do you have, or plan to make a video covering the new version of the software? "Universal x86 Tuning Utility"

@@AMUSLIM11 I've tried 2C/4T, 3C/6T, 4C/8T, 6C/12T The 4C/8T is smoothest lowest temperature,. also some stupid configuration such as 4C/7T (by setting 7 CPUs) The 4C/8T is the best, but maybe just for some kind of gaming, like PES2019, for the other may need different one
