Linux GPU Configuration Tool (LACT) version 0.7.2 is out now bringing with it expanded hardware support for AMD GPUs along with new features for NVIDIA GPU owners. If you want to tweak your GPU on Linux, this is one of the easiest ways to do it.
Version 0.7.2 was released March 16th adding in:
- AMD RDNA4 support. Giving the RX 9070 series GPUs support for clocks settings, power limit and fan control.
- Support for NVIDIA locked clocks. So you can set a min and max GPU and VRAM clock.
- More detailed NVIDIA GPU information.
- Historical charts now follow the GTK theme as much as possible.
- More reliable fan control handling after GPU reinitialization operations such as suspend/resume.
Fantastic stuff.

I've been thinking lately about lowering the voltage to the GPU and save a bit on the energy bill, maybe this tool is a good starting point!

I used LACT earlier this month to undervolt my GPU, I always used to think the process was daunting, but I just benchmarked HITMAN a couple times and was satisfied with the results.

I didn't overclock so no. I did it to get better temperatures, results were -12C for only 3 to 5 less FPS.

This is amazing. I didn't even know a tool like this existed for Linux. I have a an Nvidia RTX 2070 Super with three fans on it and even at moderate speeds they sound like standing behind a jet engine. Apparently, the card is overclocked by the manufacturer so it's pretty much always running hot with even a moderate load. The performance has always been good/great but I'm definitely willing to sacrifice some FPS for reducing the noise from those damn fans. Sounds like this is just the tool to do that.
