is there a way to limit power consumption on a desktop? nvidia gpu and intel cpu. I know there's powertop but curious if there's anything else out there. I used to use the nvidia geforce experience overlay in windows to limit gpu power

RRey de todo el cosmos how do i disable discord overlay?

dont have an nvidia setup but maybe greenwithenvy when on x11 for nvidia

The Melted Jedi•6/9/24, 9:40 PM

question, for the HTPC instal/setup Nvidia GPU isnt supported - does that mean its not supported at all like it doesnt work, or if you have an nvidia gpu there is no (dev or community) support for it

Steam Gaming Mode is completely non-functional on Nvidia at this time

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 9:41 PM

and Steam Big Picture works, but at a very low framerate

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 9:41 PM

As a result, nvidia is traditional desktop only

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 9:41 PM

neither issue can be fixed by us, they are a result of Nvidia's shitty drivers

The Melted Jedi•6/9/24, 9:47 PM

thank you for the clarification

The Melted Jedi•6/9/24, 9:48 PM

im on the KDE desktop version on this laptop. Im guessing I could just make steam start with login and possibly start big picture mode automacally as well if i wanteed to,.. possibly?

Valerie•6/9/24, 9:49 PM

You could but big picture is also pretty cooked

The Melted Jedi•6/9/24, 9:49 PM

ehh gotcha

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 9:49 PM

that's what I was saying, big picture will run like shit on Nvidia

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 9:49 PM

numerous open issues about it in valve's issue tracker

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 9:49 PM

no fix

The Melted Jedi•6/9/24, 9:49 PM

i thought you meant on gnome but i gotcha

The Melted Jedi•6/9/24, 9:50 PM

cmon valve that sucks hah

TThe Melted Jedi cmon valve that sucks hah

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 9:50 PM

it's cmon nvidia

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 9:50 PM

valve can't fix it either

The Melted Jedi•6/9/24, 9:50 PM

oh its the driver issue for for bpm.

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 9:50 PM

both BPM and gaming mode

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 9:51 PM

BPM is slow, gaming mode instant-crashes

CCrono Well, that and according to ASUS' laptop division VRR is really annoying to do w...

char•6/9/24, 9:51 PM

then don't use OLED

char•6/9/24, 9:51 PM

it sucks anyway

KKyle Gospo BPM is slow, gaming mode instant-crashes

The Melted Jedi•6/9/24, 9:51 PM

yeah I havent even liked BPM in windows even

Cchar it sucks anyway

Valerie•6/9/24, 9:52 PM

OLED is good, everything has disadvantages

char•6/9/24, 9:52 PM

OLED has mostly disadvantages

char•6/9/24, 9:53 PM

horrific burn in, I can count on my hands the amount of OLED displays that have been comfortable to use without eyestrain, no one needs 2000 nit brightness, inability to support VRR

char•6/9/24, 9:53 PM

vivid mode is also just painful to look at and ruins any reproduction of accurate colors

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 9:53 PM

I don't have your eye issues, and I've never seen an example of burn in in an OLED deck

Cchar horrific burn in, I can count on my hands the amount of OLED displays that have ...

Valerie•6/9/24, 9:54 PM

no one needs 2000 nit brightness

My phone is 2000 peak and I still think it could be better

inability to support VRR

It can, it is just harder to do so

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 9:54 PM

hasn't been out long enough

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 9:54 PM

VRR I don't want

Cchar vivid mode is also just painful to look at and ruins any reproduction of accurat...

Valerie•6/9/24, 9:54 PM

That's literally any monitor what

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 9:54 PM

so zero downsides you've said apply to me

VValerie > no one needs 2000 nit brightness My phone is 2000 peak and I still think it co...

char•6/9/24, 9:54 PM

2000 is stupid

Valerie•6/9/24, 9:54 PM

"Vivid mode bad" and that's OLED's fault?

char•6/9/24, 9:54 PM

500 is too low, 800 is probably good enough

Valerie•6/9/24, 9:54 PM

Ok but like, for those of us that go outside and use devices in the sun 2000 is actually good

char•6/9/24, 9:54 PM

the brightness of the display should match a piece of white paper in a specific lighting condition

Valerie•6/9/24, 9:55 PM

If I'm walking to work being able to see the map I'm following is a good feature.

VValerie Ok but like, for those of us that go outside and use devices in the sun 2000 is ...

char•6/9/24, 9:55 PM

for a phone yes

char•6/9/24, 9:55 PM

for a TV or handheld game console no

VValerie "Vivid mode bad" and that's OLED's fault?

char•6/9/24, 9:55 PM

more TV manufacturers fault

Cchar for a TV or handheld game console no

Valerie•6/9/24, 9:55 PM

They're both content consumption devices why is having extra brightness available bad

Valerie•6/9/24, 9:55 PM

Handheld game consoles are also portable devices btw

char•6/9/24, 9:56 PM

it's unnecessary and you're not gonna get it that bright ever

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 9:56 PM

it's that bright when I stare into the sun in sea of thieves

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 9:56 PM

looks absolutely incredible too

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 9:56 PM

that game has never looked that good

Cchar it's unnecessary and you're not gonna get it that bright ever

Valerie•6/9/24, 9:56 PM

"It's unneccesary"

How much are OLED monitors with 2000 nits peak brightness again? I don't think it's for practicality lmfao

is there a way to limit power consumption on a desktop? nvidia gpu and intel cpu. I know there's pow
