Optimize system for cooler temperatures
(lemmy.ml)
How does one optimize for better system temperatures on Linux while doing heavy tasks (e.g. gaming) during summer heat.
Are there tools for creating 'gaming/balanced/economy' profiles for example that limit the GPU and CPU depending on the requirements?
Should I find a way to customize fan speeds?
I am trying to find everything I should do from the software perspective before I move on to buying better cooling hardware.
I am currently reaching 100+ celsius temps maximum on both the GPU and CPU while gaming, on idle it's like this:
System info:
have you ever had any issues that weren't noticeable within the first 10-15 minutes of running under load?
yes, absolutely, though I've seen it much more amongst other end users.
As I've mentioned, games will load your system differently from one another. Someone who claims their system is stable with their custom tunings in every game except for something new that they've recently installed does not have a stable system. this is a case my colleagues and I see over and over.
hmm, that goes against my experience. and I'm talking about the CPUs.
