I have enabled dpm: $ cat /proc/cmdline BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-3.11.0-0.rc6.git0.1.fc20.x86_64 root=UUID=00df37a2-be3d-46fe-963a-ca08977fc5f6 ro quiet rhgb radeon.audio=1 radeon.dpm=1 LANG=hu_HU.UTF-8 I have just tried "openarena 0.8.5" again with forced "low" performance.

I know. The 6570 tested by Phoronix must be GDDR5 but it's not mentioned specifically.
