![]() ![]() While this isn't yet working for me in linux, you have a few options if the linux driver supports your card properly (which is a long shot - I have 5 graphics cards of various chipset/manufacturer and the only one that works is the crappiest one on both counts). What the person was asking is a valid question, and should have been answered without the asshattery that is being exhibited by several of you. This is why there have been several drivers that have been pushed to fix fan issues where the driver sets the fans too low, or never/inadequately ramps up the fan speeds in response to temperature. Next up is that they tend to save some cash by not including a lot of programming space (and therefore programming in the space), and rely on the drivers to do a lot of things - one of them being fan speed adjustments. Manufacturers don't want your hardware lasting forever anyways. ![]() The VGA Bios, while it will set the fans to start with, generally have poor default configurations or set fan speeds low, even with some of the best cards out there. I just use nvidia-331-updates from normal repos for my MSI laptop with GTX 765m because I would not overclock that if I could and it has a turbo mode button if I want to run its fans full speed.Īpparently many of you know ♥♥♥♥ about how hardware works. I used that to play around with overclocking my GTX 750 Ti, but the new Maxwell chip is so efficient that max temp doing graphic benchmarks with max overclock is only about 53-54 C with twin fans automatically only speeding up a few percent from their 32% base speed. But if you "Enable GPU Fan Settings" with the checkbox it is manual only for whatever speed you set and will not automatically speed up. Then you will have manual fan control option (and gpu & mem speed offsets) in NVIDIA X Server Settings. Normally you would use "sudo " prefix for these commands, but not needed in root console: ![]() Purging existing drivers (assuming you used Ubuntu packages and not a script from ) is most easily done by doing a recovery boot from grub, enabling networking, and going to root console (if you do not know how to properly stop/start X). The xorg-edgers ppa has nvidia-340 or nvidia-346 packages. You can manually control fan speed with nvidia 337 or newer drivers, I found that when I web searched "linux nvidia overclock". Moving to archlinux, the solution was simple as adding this to the /X11/etc/conf.xorg file: Either just move away from those type of OSes OR start using AMD GPUs & CPUs if you're really that obsessed with free open-source software. These systems are not Nvidia/Intel Friendly. I'm not sure if they made any of this easier on unbuntu system, some linux OSes don't support proprietary drivers and there's the issue. You could install proprietary drivers on Unbuntu, but it requires updating the System to use an actual Nvidia Kernel, which in turn doesn't support all GPUs available, +Plus you need to manually compile the Kernel, yadda yadda. Does anyone knows a application on linux for this?ĮDIT: The problem happens because there are only Open-Source Drivers for Nvidia GPUs under systems like Unbuntu, so the solution was to move to Arch-Linux and use the available proprietary drivers. ![]() I've been lurking for a while on the internet, and didn't got much help. How to control GPU Fan in Linux, i used to have MSI Afterburner on Windows to be able to control my Nvidia GPU Fan because of overheating in gaming. ![]()
