It will always be on max when youre on AC, but it should automatically go down to min when you boot from the battery, you just have to tell it too in the powerplay tab of the ATI CP

Oh, so you want it to run on powerplay mode when its on AC?

I suppose you could use ATItool to manually downclock the GPU to powerplay levels, but I am not sure there is any way to get it to run in powerplay mode when on AC.

well i can downclock the GPU from NHC as well. but powerplay is different. the GPU temp is lower when on Powerplay Vs NHC
