Today I want to tell you about some of the innovations that are ready. As you may have noticed the graphical shell has undergone many changes. The new monitoring allows you to evaluate the state of the cores on 22(!) parameters.

We continue to improve the HYDRA project for Zen 3 and are already starting to prepare for the Radeon video card tuning module. I have already informed my esteemed colleagues from AMD about it and they gave us the green light to implement the plan. Before that happens the application will have to be prepared. A reorganiz...

This month has been doubly difficult for the project, first of all it is a war, literally, in my city, and secondly I did not want to let you, my dear friends, down. The result is the long-awaited automatic CO search for UEFI. Simple and accurate, just as I planned. An assistant to help you diagnose or solve problems.

Dear friends, I want to show you a list of settings that will be available for the new diagnostics. You will have an unlimited opportunity to customize the tests for finding CO (PBO2). You can customize the duration of each test, the load level, the size of the FFT task, the initial CO, and even the CO step. Finding a CO will become very e...

HYDRA ASSISTANT will help the user to adjust the application settings, solve the cause of the failure or simplify the diagnostic process. No more instructions are needed. Forgot to turn off PBO2 in BIOS? - no problem, the assistant will do it for you, just answer a couple of simple questions.
This function will become an ...
Hi everyone, we're alive. To be honest, I've lost count of what day of the war it is. I thought I could get used to it, but no. The feeling of hopelessness when you lie on the concrete floor and pray that you can live one more day. I would like to know where God is and where justice is, but there doesn't seem to be one. I have tried to find answ...

I want to thank everyone who has expressed support for me and my country. Despite the difficult situation, I continue to keep a cool head and work on the project.
I think 1.1D PRO is one of the most stable builds ever released and I really hope you will like it. The long awaited, full-fledged
I know how important for some of you is the convenience of CO control without any reboots and visits to the BIOS. Full compatibility with all modules, changing parameters on the fly and auto-saving. This month. Already being tested.
Special thanks to @PJVol and @patrickschur_!
Unfortunately or fortunately, HYDRA turned out to be a rather complicated software product. To help you with setup and diagnostics (and not only), there will be an update this month which will include an assistant, that will ask you simple questions and, depending on the answers, change the parameters and tolerances. The name of...
2022-02-14 09:57:54 +0000 UTC View PostThere will be quite a long list of changes this month! :)
* Saves the position of the application window at the moment of closing. * New MessageBox.
* Pause/Resume for "CCD CO test" and "CORE CO test".
* Added new MessageBoxes for some important operations.
* Seamless log (during the 1st calendar day all logs...
CHANGELOG:
MONITORING
* Replaced "LOAD TYPE" with the numeric value "EDC T". This value determines the throttle level of the EDC. The higher the value, the more severe the load on the system. Helps you adjust AVX1, AVX2 and FMA3 thresholds (SETTINGS tab) more efficiently. For experienced users only....
Guys, there's an important question to be addressed.
At the moment I have encountered a problem which is related to Overriding best cores (applying a custom mask of cores to active processes). The problem is that if I return the standard affinity back to the process, the system will completely fre...
I think I wasn't the only one who was disappointed by CES. AMD has abandoned plans to release Zen3+ for AM4, with 3D cache processors being pushed back to a certain line again. Nevertheless, we keep moving forward and in the next few months HYDRA project will receive a module for GPU tuning as well as possibility of L3 cache tweaking (pl...

We have a lot of interesting things ahead of us. I also suggest you to write your wishes, what you would like to see in HYDRA.
Thank you for your support!
In this video you will find information about key frequency controls and important hints.
Also about all the massive changes that will occur with the project in the next few months, I will tell you in just a couple of days ;)
I am pleased to present you with another update! :)

I have analyzed most of your posts and decided to change my approach to frequency management. Since we get CO values during super-heavy loads, it would be partly a mistake to use these values for lighter loads. In the past to get higher in the light load we were forced to increase the CO, thus making AVX2 and FMA3 unstable. Some of you had no pr...

A new document has been added which explains how BOOST works and the benefits of FREQUENCY LOCK mode. Updated the main guide. Please read all of the information in this post or you will run into problems. In particular I am talking about profile and settings compatibility.

CHANGELOG:
The development and testing process does not always have a "visible horizon", some events are quite difficult to predict and development becomes walking through the night forest without a flashlight. As for HYDRA 1.0C PRO. Not all testbeds have successfully completed testing (it happened in the middle of the night tonight) and d...

As many of you already know, every month I release an update for the HYDRA project. This month will be no exception and I want to share some information about the next update. HYDRA 1.0C PRO will arrive at the beginning or middle of next week. The main changes will be:
1. Redesigned mechanism for creating profiles. Profil...
In the SETTINGS menu there is a new HYBRID OC operation mode - Frequency lock mode. It is designed specifically for systems with a huge amount of garbage background applications, which significantly affect the performance.
The basic principle of its work is similar to the boost mode from Intel

I consider this release a very important event. A huge amount of time has been devoted to optimization. The principle of estimating active (loaded cores) has been significantly changed, so that the background activity of the operating system has less impact on active profiles. Profiles "holding system" has been fundamentally redesigned and appli...

The release is just days away and I want to tell you about important key changes.
1) CO values for UEFI(BIOS) - at the end of the diagnosis the user will be offered 2 presets (SAFE and FAST). This is made especially for users who want to use only AMD's standard tools.
2) Finding th...

I'm glad to see you, thank you for your support. Today is a special day, the release of a long-awaited massive update. Please take a look at the list of changes. You'll also find a PDF document which contains a step-by-step guide and tips (the document has also been updated). No new diagnostics are required.

I am happy to announce that I have managed to implement 100% support for the new processors (ZEN3 APUs). There are no surprises, but the differences in architecture make themselves felt. The lower frequency and cache size significantly affect the results, but still, there is a 10-15% performance reserve.
Also the settings section has gon...
Got the 5600G today and HYDRA will get support these processors this month. Also a massive update will be released next week with all profiles (+ dynamic mode), "real-time CO bottleneck info" and "standby cache cleanup" feature.
2021-08-07 21:18:01 +0000 UTC View PostDuring the day I have received a lot of letters from you and most of the problems you wrote about have already been fixed in this update. I will be sure to respond to all of them in the next few days. If there were no CTR experts, I'd probably commit suicide :)
Please note this is the second release and it is also a...
Most importantly. Good to see you!
Today I want to please you with a long-awaited new project. Certainly in the new project you will find already familiar things, which you might have seen from CTR, but also MANY NEW things. The stage of the project - the alpha version and in the future a huge amount of conte...
