Rumor: AMD to introduce Curve Shaper for more efficient and simpler overclocking of its processors

1usmus, a third-party software developer for Ryzen, shared information ahead of the official announcement. He claims that Curve Shaper will improve clock speed and power consumption.

As the name suggests, Curve Optimizer allows optimizing the frequency/voltage curve, which means achieving the maximum frequency and minimum voltage at each point of the curve.

The community embraced this method when it first appeared due to its efficiency and simplicity. The developers of Clocktuner and Hydra created a method for determining Curve Optimizer settings down to -30.

With Curve Shaper, you can adjust the frequency curve for low, medium, and high temperature scenarios. This is important because it can prevent the processor from operating at high frequencies when there is virtually no load on it.

On the other hand, even if reaching high frequencies can lead to higher temperatures, you can utilize the processor’s full potential.

Curve Shaper will allegedly be included in Curve Optimizer, which will feature other options such as Precision Boost Overdrive. All capabilities will be available in software like AMD Ryzen Master.
