RPS Autotuning (current "high power" window):
  Avg. up: 42% [above threshold? 90%]
  Avg. down: 0% [below threshold? 70%]

So we see here, that VP boosts the GPU, but it sadly only upclocks when it uses > 90% and downclocks right away when using < 70%.

Try to echo 400 into that file and see if it already helps. If not try with 756. i915_min_freq
