The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Is it possible to set a hard limit to the max wattage of my AMD GPU?
You can use LACT as an alternative to CoreCtrl. There is also an option to set it manually through the SysFS: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/AMDGPU#Manual_(default)

LACT (AMDGPU settings tool) now supports advanced fan curve configuration, voltage control on newer GPUs and uses GTK4 for the GUI
I just pushed some UI improvements: PR
- LACT (AMDGPU settings GUI) update out - now with a GTK4 UI, better fan curve configuration, voltage control on newer GPUs, JSON API and deb/rpm packaging
- How do I overclock my radeon card?

any monitoring tools for nouveau
LACT can probably work with nouveau if the driver exposes the stats. You can check if `/sys/class/drm/card0/device` contains the information you need.

New alternative amdgpu fan control for Linux
I remember looking for something like this a long time ago and ended up writing this. My solution is probably overkill for people just looking to configure the fan speed though.

AMD RX 6700XT launches March 18th at $479 MSRP with 12 GBs VRAM, aimed at 1440p Ultra
Yeah, I just found (LACT)[https://github.com/ilyazzz/LACT] and was gonna start playing with that. I need to find a good Linux GPU stress benchmark to test it out tho.

Power State management best practices?
If you're certain your GPU has deeper power saving states than P8, I would start by checking why it's not using them. Maybe tlp, powertop or nvtop (or their documentation) can help.

MAXn power mode in production?
Did you run any of the "dashboards" while executing the test? Like [NvTop](https://github.com/Syllo/nvtop)

Will Pop!_OS Cosmic have well integrated app suite like Elementary OS
If you plan on making a system monitor/task manager, could you please make it display actual useful information and not just extremely basic stats like most do now. GNOME and KDE both have overly simple applications for this, that just show the CPU and memory utilisation, and it makes finding information like the processor frequency and temperature so much more difficult. On Windows, for example, the task manager performance tab shows a much greater amount of information for each system component, not just total utilisation. GPU usage is also never shown in any of the popular system monitors, something that's probably important for a lot of users. It's not even necessarily impossible since projects such as nvtop are able to. I do hope we'll eventually get a much better GUI program for monitoring our system in Linux.

If you dont complain you get nothing! What features/bug fixes you want to see in future Linux
Can't nvtop do that?

Looking for a GPU monitoring tool on windows like nvtop to purge VRAM
I'm looking for an alternative to nvtop. It's a Ncidia monitoring tool for Linux. You can easily monitor or kill processes via terminal. I used the nvidia-smi command on windows commanline, but it gives very little information.

[question]Training and embedding problem
Try monitoring your VRAM using nvtop (or something), then run training, if the VRAM maxed, training stopped, then VRAM dropped, then it's 100% not enough VRAM.

Linux is not as smooth as windows
The "nv" in "nvtop" originally stood for NVidia, and was only changed to Neat Videocard last year when it added support for AMD cards (after having been "NVidia TOP" for 5 years!) https://github.com/Syllo/nvtop/commit/fe28a13c78ddb395245f86bc0a33e6a5978f594a
