AMD Ryzen 9 7900 iGPU Overclocking Pushes Performance Up to 42%

According to SkatterBench, a website known for incredible overclocking attempts, we get to see AMD's Ryzen 7000 series integrated GPU get up to 42% performance improvement from overclocking. Specifically, the SKU used in the attempt was the Ryzen 9 7900 non-X model with 12 cores and 24 threads, clocked at 3.7 GHz base frequency and 5.4 GHz boost speed. The SKU contains a basic AMD GPU integrated into the package; however, not meant for any serious gaming tasks. Nonetheless, it is interesting to see what a two-core RDNA2 GPU clocked at 2.2 GHz managed to achieve once overclocked. The memory clock of the GPU is set to 2.4 GHz at stock.

Running at the base voltage of 0.997 volts under Furmark workload, the iGPU consumes around 38.5 Watts. However, the overclocking attempt pushed the voltage to 1.395 Volts, resulting in a 3.1 GHz iGPU frequency. The GPU Memory clock is now set to 3200 MHz, and the GPU+SOC power is 60.689 Watts, almost double compared to the stock settings. The overclocker used a GFX curve optimizer with various system tweaks to achieve these numbers. While the OC attempt was successful, the most significant performance improvement was a 42% increase, with some game titles averaging less. Below, the blue bar indicates stock, while the green bar indicates OC'd performance. You can check out the YouTube video as well to see more details.

Minus Infinity
Infinity x 0 = 0. 42% uplift on virtually nothing is still utter trash.

TumbleGeorgeMatrox Maevex, Mura, Monarch...Much less power consumption than graphic cards for general purpose.
I was thinking something for a sff htpc

ymdhisI remember pushing my Core 2 Duo from 2.33 GHz to 3.15GHz. I think it needed extra voltage at that point, and it made the cooler too loud. But at 3GHz it was stable on stock voltage.
I had a simalar story with the 1st gen i-core processor, the i7 920xm, laptop cpu. Stock speed was 2.0ghz, I got it to overclock to 3.1ghz.
mrnagantAre there any one stop shop benchmarks for popular games on this iGPU? Games like CoD, Fortnite, Rocket League, Roblox, Minecraft, Dota 2, GTA5, Destiny 2, War Thunder, TF2. Just out of curiosity really.

Without overclocking possibilities, the UHD 770 consumes almost 13W (55W indicates the wattmeter in FurMark). It is sufficient for what it can do, it does excellent video decoding and I run WoT and AW fluently with it in 1080p/Low. For the AAA, you need a dedicated video card. With all the overclocking of an igp ryzen, it still remains at a great distance from a GTX 1050. And it consumes enormously for what it offers.

P.S. 12900K has the same igp and is clocked at the same frequency as 13500 and 13600.

12 --> 17 fps dGPUs days are over.
