As you can see, the driver choose the performance profile, butthat one is limited to 400MHz, half of what this card can do. Of course i want to be able jump the GPU to 800MHz. So is there any easy way to choose the power state 2 instead of power state 1?
We'll probably need to add a quirk for your card. Can you send me the output of lspci -vnn for the GPU?
Please note that the original card firmware had all powerstates the same, i had used rbe (http://www.techpowerup.com/rbe/) to change then to the current frequencies. In that app, the powerstate 1 is called battery and the powerstate 2 is called performance.
I can switch the two and reflash, but to me seems logic that one can manually choose what powerstate to use if needed, just like the powerlevels (excluding the middle powerlevel problem)
Here is the output:
