Mentioned in the article, I use LACT. It's good

LACT is, unfortunately, built on the GTK framework instead of Qt or similar, so its a no go for me (too many input issues with modern GNOME apps on non-GNOME DEs and the general issues most people have with the GNOME team as a whole).

Is there a viable alternative for Nvidea cards?

LACT works just fine with my RTX 3080.

Thanks, I tried it our and it works like a charm for me :-)

I can confirm that LACT allows me to clock multiple 3090s on bazzite and Tumbleweed.

Is it still actively maintained? It's also not working on Wayland fwiw.

Ah bugger, looks like it's dead too, never realized. :(

I've switched to LACT, works way better and allows for better VRAM tune due to being able to mess with its power states.

Also on GNOME it can be properly minimised unlike CoreCTRL.
