The current conversion ratio results in a higher frequency than needed, that is not very actual now since the Display Controller driver got support for memory bandwidth management and hence memory frequency can go lower now without bad consequences. Since memory freq now goes to a lower rates, the responsiveness of interactive applications become worse due to a quite high polling interval value that is currently set to 500ms. Changing polling interval to 30ms results in a good responsiveness of the system.
