I found I can get 95%+ performance for ~75% energy cost by setting the power level to 100 in the above command in my mining rig, but I imagine other power conscious users would appreciate this too. In my limited experience, setting it too high had no effect. If you set this too low, you will get an error. Where the 0 is my GPU number, and the 90 is the maximum power in watts. EVGA sends out a lot of firmware updates, I have had 3-4 FW updates on the RTX 3080 FTW3 Ultra since Nov 2020. The performance certainly holds ground as it is a proper player in the. =END OF ANSWER=Īnd as an extra tidbit not asked for in this question, you can also adjust the power output of your Nvidia GPU with: sudo nvidia-smi -i 0 -pl 90 In this review, we test the EVGA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti FTW3 Ultra Gaming, a premium card with extras and factory tweak. nvidia-settings -a "/GPUFanControlState=1" -a "/GPUTargetFanSpeed=55"įor a much more detailed overview of this feature including multiple GPU fans, check out this thorough documentation Nvidia Overclocking and Coolingįor a somewhat rambling and wayward thread which lead me to the above link, check out Set Fanspeed in Linux from Terminal Importantly I note that my 1070 Ti is GPU 0. Gives information about the GPU(s) and their numbers. Precision X can be used with any card from any manafacturer and not limited to just Titans (this guide is for Titans though). To tell nvidia-xconfig to allow the fan to be controlled in the command line. Soooo after many hours messing about with EVGA Precision X, I thought I would write up a basic guide for those who are not familiar with this peach of an overclocking program. To control Nvidia GPU fan speed via Terminal on Linux Mint 20 with a 1070 Ti: sudo nvidia-xconfig -cool-bits=4 It does wonders and it’s as easy as setting the power limits as max and just increasing the clock speed and mem speed by a bit at a time until it’s unstable.
