MorePowerTool: Get More From Your AMD Card

You bought an RX 6700 XT or 7800 XT for smooth gaming, then reality hits. In heavy scenes the frame rate dips, the fans ramp up hard, and the case feels hotter than it should. You open AMD Software, push the sliders, and still get the sense that something is limited on 

Safe Setup and First Launch

MorePowerTool is typically used as a portable utility. The clean approach is to keep all related files in one folder so you always know what you changed and where your backups are stored.

Create a Working Folder

1. Create a folder: C:\GPU_Tool
2. Extract the downloaded archive into that folder
3. Right-click the tool executable and choose Run as administrator
4. Approve the Windows security prompt

If the program opens and immediately closes, close AMD Software and any Radeon background tools from the system tray, then try again. Background GPU tools can interfere with low-level access.

Your First Tweak: The 10 Percent Rule

The safest way to start is with a small change you can easily undo. Do not chase big numbers on the first attempt. Your goal is stability and temperature control, not bragging rights.

1. Open the tool and click Load to read current values
2. Immediately click Save and store a backup profile with a clear name such as backup.ppt
3. Find the total power limit field, often shown as PT Limit
4. Increase it by about 10 percent
5. Apply the change using the write function in the tool
6. Restart the GPU driver or reboot if requested

After that, test with a demanding game for at least 15 to 20 minutes. Watch temperatures and stability. If you see crashes or driver resets, roll back to your backup and try a smaller adjustment such as 5 percent.

What You Might Notice

• Fewer frame drops in heavy scenes if you were power-limited
• More consistent clocks under sustained load
• Lower fan spikes if the GPU stops bouncing off a limit

When Things Go Wrong

Most problems are reversible because you are changing software-level constraints. The key is to keep a backup and make changes in small steps.

Black Screen After Applying Changes

• Reboot and restore your backup profile
• If Windows will not boot normally, use Safe Mode and revert settings

Temperatures Jump Too High

• Your cooler may not handle the additional power
• Lower the power limit and improve case airflow before trying again

No Change at All

• Make sure Radeon software tools are not overriding settings
• Some models enforce hard limits at firmware level

Performance Gets Worse

• Too much power without proper tuning can increase heat and cause throttling
• Try a smaller power increase or focus on undervolting instead

Questions You Probably Have

Will This Break My Card?

In most cases, no. You are adjusting software parameters, not physically modifying the hardware. The most common outcome of a bad setting is instability that goes away when you revert to your backup.

How Much Faster Will Games Run?

It depends on what was holding your card back. If the GPU was constantly hitting a power limit, you may see smoother performance and fewer drops. Often the bigger improvement is lower noise and more consistent behavior.

Do I Need to Redo This After Driver Updates?

Often yes. Driver updates can reset or override certain tuning values. Keep your backup file so you can reapply your preferred settings quickly.

What About NVIDIA?

NVIDIA tuning uses a different model. For NVIDIA cards, tools like MSI Afterburner are the standard approach.

Quick Tips That Work

• Many RX 6000 cards respond better to a mild undervolt than a big power increase
• Hotspot temperature matters more than edge temperature in many workloads
• Test with real games you actually play, not only synthetic benchmarks
• Write down changes and results so you do not lose track
• Do tuning when you are rested and not in a rush

Bottom Line

MorePowerTool is best used to remove unnecessary limits and tailor the card to your cooling setup. Start small, always back up first, and test changes one at a time. If you do that, the tool can deliver a more stable gaming experience with less heat and noise.
