This allows the processor to meet the instantaneous performance needs of the operation being performed, while minimizing power draw, heat generation and noise avoidance. AMD PowerTune aims to solve thermal design power and performance constraints.[1] Besides the reduced energy consumption, AMD PowerTune helps to lower the noise levels created by the cooling in desktop computers, and extends battery life in mobile devices. AMD PowerTune is the successor to AMD PowerPlay.[2] Support for "PowerPlay" was added to the Linux kernel driver "amdgpu" on November, 11 2015.[3] As a lecture from CCC in 2014 shows, AMD's x86-64 SMU firmware is executed on some LatticeMico32 and PowerTune was modeled using Matlab.[4] This is similar to Nvidia's PDAEMON, the RTOS responsible for power on their GPUs.[5] OverviewAMD PowerTune was introduced in the TeraScale 3 (VLIW4) with Radeon HD 6900 in Dec 15, 2010 and has been available in different development stages on Radeon- and AMD FirePro-branded products ever since. Over the years, reviews which document the development of AMD PowerTune have been published by AnandTech.[6][7][8][9] An additional technology named AMD ZeroCore Power has been available since the Radeon HD 7000 Series, implementing the Graphics Core Next microarchitecture. The pointlessness of a fixed clock frequency was accredited in January 2014 by SemiAccurate.[10] Operating system supportAMD Catalyst is available for Microsoft Windows and Linux and supports AMD PowerTune since version.{{which|date=July 2014}} The free and open-source "Radeon" graphics device driver has some support for AMD PowerTune, see "Enduro".[11] Feature overview for AMD APUs{{AMD APU features}}Feature overview for AMD graphics cards{{AMD GPU features}}See also
