GamePP Frequently Asked Questions - Professional Hardware Monitoring Software FAQ Knowledge Base

"Does GamePP support custom power limits after overclocking? How to balance power consumption and performance?"

超频设置

"Custom power limit settings: ① Go to 「Overclocking Settings」-「Power Management」 and enable 「Custom Power Limit」; ② Set power caps for CPU/GPU (e.g., 180W for CPU); ③ Balancing methods: a. For performance, increase the power limit moderately (ensure sufficient cooling); b. For low power consumption, lower the power limit and reduce overclocking amplitude to maintain system stability."

"How to optimize timings for GamePP’s memory overclocking? How much does timing adjustment affect game performance?"

超频设置

"Memory overclocking timing optimization: ① Go to 「Memory Overclocking」-「Timing Settings」, lower the CL timing (e.g., from CL16 to CL14), and increase memory voltage moderately (not exceeding 1.5V); ② Timing optimization can improve game frame rate by approximately 5%-10% (e.g., 「PUBG」 frame rate from 150FPS to 160FPS); ③ Adjust timings gradually and run the 「Memory Stability Test」 after each adjustment to ensure system stability."

Can the overclocking settings of GamePP be saved as a configuration file? Can it be used after replacing hardware?

超频设置

Methods to save overclocking configuration files and use them after hardware replacement: ① Enter 「Overclocking Settings」 - 「Configuration Management」, click 「Save Configuration」, and save the current overclocking parameters as a file; ② After replacing the hardware, if the new hardware model is the same (e.g., the same CPU model), the configuration file can be imported for direct use; ③ If the hardware model is different, the overclocking parameters need to be reset to avoid faults caused by hardware incompatibility.

After overclocking, the game occasionally lags; is it caused by unstable overclocking? How to troubleshoot?

超频设置

Troubleshooting methods for game lag after overclocking: ① This is a typical sign of unstable overclocking. Troubleshooting steps: a. Reduce the overclocking amplitude of CPU/GPU/memory; b. Run GamePP's 「System Stability Test」; if errors occur, it indicates unstable overclocking; c. Check the hardware temperature; overheating can also cause lag, so heat dissipation needs to be improved.

What types of memory does GamePP's memory overclocking function support? How to avoid overclocking failure?

超频设置

Memory types supported by memory overclocking and methods to avoid overclocking failure: ① Supports mainstream DDR4 and DDR5 memory, and is preferentially compatible with high-quality memory modules such as Samsung B-die and SK Hynix C-die; ② Methods to avoid failure: a. Start from the default memory frequency and increase by 100MHz each time; b. Increase the memory voltage synchronously (not exceeding 1.5V); c. Enable the 「Memory Stability Test」 and continue overclocking only after passing the test.
