 # tuned-amdgpu
 
-Hacky solution to integrate AMDGPU power profile control in `tuned` with Ansible
+Hacky solution to integrate AMDGPU power control and overclocking in `tuned` with Ansible
 
 Takes a list of existing `tuned` profiles and creates new ones based on them.  These new profiles include AMDGPU power/clock parameters
 
 An attempt is made to discover the active GPU using the 'connected' state in the `DRM` subsystem, example:
-```
-$ grep -ls ^connected /sys/class/drm/*/status | grep -o card[0-9] | sort | uniq | sort -h | tail -1
+
+```bash
+~ $ grep -ls ^connected /sys/class/drm/*/status | grep -o card[0-9] | sort | uniq | sort -h | tail -1
 card1
 ```
-
-_Warning_: This is only tested with `RX6000` series GPUs, it is probable that older AMD GPUs will not work properly.  Use at your own risk!
+_Warning_: This is only tested with `RX6000` series GPUs, it is probable that other generations will *not* work properly.  Use at your own risk!
 
 ## Profiles
 
-An example of the output/provided profiles follow
+Two _'profiles'_ are in each name:
+
+- before `amdgpu` is the source profile provided with `tuned`
+- after `amdgpu` tells the GPU clock profile offered, outlined below
 
 | Output profile | Description |
 |:---|---|
 | `balanced-amdgpu-default` | Includes the (assumed) existing `balanced` tuned profile.<br/><br/>Only adjusts the GPU power limit (typically lower).  Clocks/voltage curve remain the default. |
-| `desktop-amdgpu-VR` | Includes the (assumed) existing `desktop` tuned profile.<br/><br/>Adjusts the GPU power limit, clocks, _and_ the voltage curve.<br/><br/>Uses the predefined `VR` profile in the driver.  See `/sys/class/drm/card*/device/pp_power_profile_mode` |
-| `latency-performance-amdgpu-custom` | Includes the existing `latency-performance` tuned profile.<br/><br/>Like the existing GPU profiles (eg: _VR)), this also adjusts the GPU power limit, clocks, _and_ the voltage curve.<br/><br/>This differs by using the `custom` profile in the driver.  This opens up further tweaking of the power/clock heuristics through the driver (currently manual).  see: [pp-dpm](https://docs.kernel.org/gpu/amdgpu/thermal.html#pp-dpm) |
-
-**Note**: This is non-exhaustive, see the variables `base_profiles` and `amdgpu_profiles` below for the (default) sources of the merged profile mapping
+| `desktop-amdgpu-overclock` | Includes the (assumed) existing `desktop` tuned profile.<br/><br/>Adjusts the GPU power limit, clocks, _and_ the voltage curve. |
+| `desktop-amdgpu-peak` | Includes the (assumed) existing `desktop` tuned profile.<br/><br/>Same as the `overclock` profile, but locks clocks to their highest configured values |
 
 ## Notable variables
 
 These are the variables you're likely to want to change.  They are defined in [playbook.yml](playbook.yml)
