MP 7,1 Radevon VII owners: How do you turn off sleep mode?

[chfilm]

Hi,
I'm contemplating putting a Radeon VII alongside my Vega II into the Mac Pro, but am worried about the sleep mode fan issue.

My current energy saving settings look like this, sorry for the German:


I don't understand, is the mac going into sleep mode like this or not? My screens turn off after 14 minutes and I have to use my apple watch to unlock the machine when I return to it, but does that mean that the mac was sleeping? I just would like to keep the current behavior and don't understand if I'm actually ever using sleep mode or not at all. Thanks a lot!

If you use those setting after 14 minutes your Mac will sleep and your fans will spin up to the max. I have twin Radeon VIIs in my Mac Pro 7.1, and these are my energy saver settings. I have set a screensaver to come on after a few minutes in the desktop and screen saver settings.
