I have an nVidia GTX 580 and I'm having trouble getting it to clock down with AppleGraphicsPowerManagement.kext.
In Windows, the card enters its lowest power state and idles around 32-38C but in OS X it never seems to clock down (based on HWMonitor.app, at least) and is stuck at its maximum 772MHz core/4GHz memory, idling at 45C.
I am using the MacMini5,1 system definition and modified AppleGraphicsPowerManagement.kext to properly set the GPU power state. It seem to be working, as per dmesg:
You can see it change states but the clocks never change. Any ideas?
System specs are GA-Z68-D3H-B3 with UEFI BIOS (no DSDT, custom SSDT for i5-2500k overclock) on Mountain Lion 10.8.2 fully updated.
I have not installed nVidia's CUDA 10.8.x drivers. Booting with GraphicsEnabler=yes.
