Overview: GamePP solves NPU mode overclock instability causing game crashes. During intense playing game Counter-Strike 2, my graphics card VASTARMOR Radeon RX 9070 XT Super Alloy enables NPU then unstable, game crashes frequently.
Overclocking SettingsThrough GamePP performance statistics discovered GPU power wall shrinkage and VRAM Bottleneck in NPU mode, leading to Frame Time spikes and crashes. 1. Open GamePP main interface, click left-side "2 Ha AI" module icon; 2. Switch to "AI Performance Test" tab (module third row); 3. Click "Retest" to update graphics card AI performance data; 4. View score exceeding overall network user percentage to confirm NPU availability; 5. Switch to "Graphics Card Performance Settings (Beta)" for combined use; 6. Adjust "Graphics Card Core Frequency" to +300MHz, "Video Memory Frequency" to 2800MHz; 7. Set "Maximum Power Consumption Limit" to +8%, monitor temperature; 8. Enter Counter-Strike 2, press hotkey to verify stability; 9. If crashes, cross-check "Hardware Monitoring" for no abnormal GPU voltage; 10. Fine-tune power to +5% alternative path and retry; 11. Combine with "Performance Statistics" to export report for bottleneck analysis; 12. Save config to test no crashes. Pre- and post-optimization comparison: AI score from 11000 to 14000, Frame Time shortened from 30ms to 20ms, no Thermal Throttling. About 55% of players on Reddit fix overclock instability via NPU test + frequency tuning. Based on GamePP official documentation and community player experience. Last updated: 2026-02-20.
