I search a GPU Clock Monitoring Tool, which make alarm if the GPU Clock downclock.

It's for my quad AMD Radeon R9 Fury X machine.

I still need to use the old Crimson 15.12 software (with 1912.5 driver in it).
Software/drivers after make invalid results for AstroPulse.
Also I saw GPU freezing (like dead) with newer software/drivers - in BOINC WU hanging with -177 error results.

But the Crimson 15.12 isn't without BUGs...
After a few minutes or a few days/weeks, one or more GPUs downclock during WU calculation.
It goes from 1050 in steps down to 300 MHz - and again up to 1050 in steps down to 300 MHz - and again from the beginning... - until I make a reboot of the PC.

It's easy to see because of the GPU Clock indicator on the VGA card.
But it's annoying, because I can't look 24 hours/day to this...

It would be nice, if I would have a tool which look to the GPU Clock...
If one WU finish and one new WU start, the GPU Clock indicator goes down (for 2 secs) - up (for 2 secs) - down (for 4 secs) - and up (and then the calculation start).
So it's normal that two times between two WUs the GPU Clock jumps down and up...

But if the GPU Clock make this stairway like downclock - so it would be nice if a tool make a 'beep' - maybe at a step over 300 MHz.
E.g. at 500 MHz or something, at a Clock Speed that isn't normal.

Is a tool out there which could do this?

Thanks.


BTW. I let run MSI Afterburner for a better fan curve.
This GPU Clock Monitoring Tool should work with it together... and not disturb each other.
