How do I change my CPU clock speed?
Okay, after much tinkering around, I managed to find a tool that does exactly what I needed it to with literally no extra tinkering, which I found here: https://github.com/deinstapel/cpupower but to be honest it just raised more questions. If I leave the CPU on boost mode in the bios, it gives me pretty much full range of minimum clock speed and maximum clock speed (Except minimum can only go as low as 16% for some reason, which is odd, but I'm sure there's a reason for that somewhere.) But here's where it gets weird. If I leave the maximum at 100%, it seems the lower I put the minimum allowed clock speed, the more likely audio issues are to occur. (Mind you, all these tests were done with the maximum allowed speed set to 100%) For instance, in my limited testing I did, if I leave the minimum at 16%, audio issues happen INCREDIBLY quickly, but if I raise the minimum to 50%, no REAL audio issues seem to occur except maybe a pop every once in a while. I really would like to know the cause of this.

Just an appreciation post for how good battery management has gotten
thanks. i wonder if this extension uses that system.

If I buy a Windows laptop advertised as having 10-hour battery life, can I expect to get similar after installing Pop?
If you install this extension and limit your cpu, you might.

Turning on fan to max with thinkfan seems to set computer to a "battery saver" type mode? How to max out processor while maxing out fan?
To get some more detailed control, at some point I installed a gnome gui applet called CPU Power Manager. I set it to high performance mode here, and enable turbo.

system76-power or power-profiles-daemon on Fedora 36
Whoops, sorry, I’m half asleep and posted the outdated extensions link. I’ve updated the link to point to their GitHub which also lists installation instructions — there’s a Fedora copr available to install the extension and it’s fully compatible with GNOME 42 too (I’ve been using it on both Fedora 35 and now 36, it’s working great :)). Sorry for posting the wrong link just before!
- Help! Help! Reinstall and activate power-profiles-daemon

Battery drain a lot
Take a look at CPU Power Manager but keep in mind that you will never reach the energy efficiency of Windows.

I forked SteamOS for my living room PC

Have you tried CoreCtrl [0]?

I have a 7900XTX and performance under Linux has been at least on par with Windows, sometimes better (though not by much).
> May i ask what driver features are you missing?
I'm not GP but I'd love to see frame gen and stuff like anti-lag and upscaling integrated into amdgpu with some sort of official way of setting it (though looking at Adrenaline it might actually be best if it's left up to the community to create the GUIs).

How do I underclock my 7800 xt on arch linux?
Basically the 7800 xt has this bug where I need to lower the core clock of -80mhz to avoid it crashing with 2 different hdmi/vga monitors or something. On windows no problems, but what about arch linux? How do I lower it? Looks like corectrl doesn´t support 7000 series gpus (from what I understood), please help yall!

Is this apllied to 23.10 or just older Ubuntu?
sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg Reboot your system. You should have more controls when you select Advanced as Performance mode. https://gitlab.com/corectrl/corectrl/-/wikis/Setup

AMD's 7900 XTX achieves better value for Stable Diffusion than Nvidia RTX 4080
> The AMD experience on Linux is vastly better than the Nvidia one.
I just wish we had an equivalent of AMD Software on Linux, so I could mess around with the settings more.
For example, I like to limit the GPU to 50-75% of it's total power for ambient heat/cooling reasons, or UPS/PSU/electricity bill reasons when specific games make it hard to cap framerates.
With AMD Software on Windows, it's no big deal. On Linux, the best I found was CoreCtrl: https://gitlab.com/corectrl/corectrl
Sadly, it doesn't seem to work all that well for my use case, which I mentioned in my blog post when using Linux instead of Windows as my daily driver at home too: https://blog.kronis.dev/articles/a-week-of-linux-instead-of-...
> You see, by default the card controls its own GPU and memory clock values, which means that when idle the GPU draws around 40 W of power. However, if I want to set a limit for how much W in total it can use, it also makes me set the GPU and memory clock values, which will them be fixed: so at idle the GPU will use about 60 W of power.

AMD really need to fix this. (7900 XTX vs 4080 power consumption)
If you set it to POWER_SAVING instead of 3D_FULL_SCREEN, it uses the highest boost clock a lot less. Or if you use something like corectrl's application profiles (maybe the Windows vendor driver control panel has them?), you can selectively disable boost clock states in specific games.

Motherboard for Gamers
I'm bias toward Asus motherboards. I have an "Asus TUF GAMING B550-PLUS WIFI II" and a "Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Hero (WI-FI) ATX". Both boards have a fan control feature in the BIOS/EFI. On the Windows side both boards come with Ai Suite 3 software. On the Linux side you might want to take a look at Corectrl ==> https://gitlab.com/corectrl/corectrl
