atrofac vs openrgb-rs

atrofac

A library and a command line application to control the power plan, and the fan curve (CPU & GPU) of Asus Zephyrus G14 devices (might also work with other devices that use the Armoury Crate Service). Fanless mode is possible as long as the GPU & CPU temperatures are not too hot (even on battery). (by cronosun)

G14 2022 without Armory Crate (and question of how to enable Ultimate Mode / MUX switch)
3 projects | /r/ZephyrusG14 | 2 Feb 2023

Atrofac GUI https://github.com/cronosun/atrofac - a lightweight utility to switch between power profiles (Silent / Performance / Turbo). It's designed for 2020 model, but it works for 2022 too. Main trick here that it's not only adjusting fan-modes that many other apps do, but also adjusts overal TDP of a CPU/GPU! (125W on Turbo, 60W on Performance, etc)

I don’t think you need any special software for the cooler, CAM just handles the RGB and I think the display on the block. If you can live without that (OpenRGB can potentially handle the RGB, not sure about the display) then you should be able to get rid of it (assuming NZXT let you uninstall it without needing a reinstall, unlike Asus and Armory Crate…).

If you've connected the ARGB Header to your Motherboard, you'll have to use some software like OpenRGB, but if not - try pressing the "Reset" button (located on the left-hand side of the Front Panel) which hopefully will switch between RGB modes.

Windows Dynamic Lighting RGB control on Linux ?
2 projects | /r/linux_gaming | 3 Oct 2023

Controlling RGB devices on Linux has always been kinda finicky. Too much proprietary nonsense and Windows-only software. With so many vendors jumping on this open standard would it potentially open up way more devices to be controlled by one app on Linux? Would a project like OpenRGB be able to get this working? I'm not a developer, so apologies if this ultimately means nothing.
