amdmsrtweaker-lnx

amdmsrt (amdmsrtweaker-lnx) is a Linux port of the AmdMsrTweaker tool written by Martin Kinkelin and extended by Marcus Pollice.

The current version that you're looking at is modified by Emanuel Czirai and is meant to run only on my own laptop! Resides at: https://github.com/NotaseCretagen/amdmsrtweaker-lnx
Please do not use this one but instead, look at the original repo. which is meant to work generally: https://github.com/johkra/amdmsrtweaker-lnx

Changes to frequency will not be reflected by /proc/cpuinfo, but a quick benchmark such as "openssl speed sha1" should show a speed difference.

Compilation

Clone the repo and make sure you have gcc and make installed. Then execute "make" in the cloned directory. Optionally copy the file "amdmsrt" to a directory in $PATH such as /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin.

Usage

Make sure you have the msr module loaded (cpuid not required). ("modprobe msr" as root) The program will otherwise exit with a corresponding error message.

See the file "readme.txt" for usage examples. The program has to executed as root and the executable is called "amdmsrt".
