Seems like that has worked, thanks a lot!
Seems like that has worked, thanks a lot!
I already have overlay and game recording disabled. I’ll give those launch options a go, will let you know if it helped. Thanks.
I was on 6.13.x kernel, now 6.14.x and yes, also went forn MESA 24.x.x to 25.x.x which is default for Fedora 42 now. Refresh rate is fine. Not sure what I should be looking for in the Steam logs. Game is not crashing and otherwise seems to be running fine unless I use any kind of input when this starts to happen.
Are you also on GNOME or KDE? Because I’m thinking of reinstalling to KDE and try if it happens there as well but to be honest, I much better like GNOME experience and I would have to setup everything again…
Yeah, it’s just trough Steam.
I’ve just finished installation and setup… now just downloading some games and I’m ready to play the new BG3 patch.

Reading the comments, it’s obvious they either didn’t watch the video and those that did, missed the point of what he was saying and got butthurt instead… Internet comments on a nutshell
I also had it start on boot but I never could minimize it to be non-intrusive and from what I’ve researched it’s apparently very known issue in GNOME.
I don’t have this issue with LACT.
I’m sorry but I don’t believe you. Maybe you just misunderstand what I’ve meant.
If you minimize it and press Super key, is it shown or it’s completely gone?
Yes I do otherwise I wouldn’t be able to OC.
I have to enable it with script after every Kernel update.
What I’m doing goes beyond typical GPU overclocking otherwise there’s no need to do what I’m trying to achieve here.
If you had to compare it to Wimdows it’s basically MPT OC.
Thanks a lot. I will look into this.
Reason why I use chmod is because I cant for the life of me figure out why I can’t just use sudo. Even when I set environment variable for the upp.py it refuses to run it. Even when I directly want to run it via sudo it refuses, I can only run it without sudo for whatever reason… but to overwrite pp_table I need sudo privileges and I’ve been only able to get around with chmod.
Also I’ve tried to make a script that I will just run and will execute the commands… but I get immediately hard lock and black screen and I need to do hard reset. Same when I try to copy and overwrite the pp_table with sudo priviledges with a pre-modified pp_table.
So I’m kinda hesitant to now run the commands on runtime, it’s possible it will hardlock during boot. I will give it more though tommorrow.
edit:
I just found out how to write the pp_table into VBIOS so I will try flashing modified VBIOS on the card and hope it will work. I’ll leave that for tomorrow though.
It will never be not funny :)
Yes but you misunderstand the issue here. It’s not about whether LACT or CoreCTRL is better. They only allow you to work within the default limits. For example max power limit is 312W on my card and I can only go up to 312W in those applications. By editing pp_table I can increase it to whatever I want. What I’m doing by editing pp_table is going beyond those limits and whether I use one application or another it does not matter. Also I switched from CoreCtrl to LACT because CoreCtrl on GNOME can’t be minimized into tray so it was just annoying.
Also I can edit FCLK, SOCclck, TDC limits, etc… those are things that are not available to be edited in CoreCTRL or LACT or even on Windows in MSI Afterburner or AMD Adrenaline Software.
Basically, I can edit almost all of this to tune my OC as I wish:

(sorry, IDK whats up with Lemmys formatting, everything is supposed to be in separate line).
Thanks for directions :) I’ll check that out
Yes, caching was disabled. Done again in reverse order, no time for the USB stick to cool down as I’ve popped it right into another device when it finished on the one before. And yes, the same USB stick I’ve tested with before.
single 4.4GB video file
No it did not get warm at all because it was barely doing anything. But so that I’m fair I’ve borrowed different USB 3.2 Gen1 drive and tested also with my Fedora Laptop.
single 4.4GB video file
Thanks but that does not solve my problem. I’m not looking for alternative. If someone hands me USB drive to copy files for him I won’t be able to use “LocalSend”.
As I’ve already mentioned, sync does absolutely nothing. The copy took so long that the sync
command exited 4 times while the files were still transfering and were nowhere near finishing. Regarding the watch -d grep -e Dirty: -e Writeback: /proc/meminfo
command, I did not mention it in this thread but I did try it and yes, there was some almost 900k kB of data in the “Dirty” buffer that went up and down constantly even after I’ve disabled the caching.
seems like that helped, thanks!
