Nvidia Learning Curve

It's been posted on the forums before, but I'll repost everything here.

First you need to generate an appropriate xorg.conf that will enable fan control, force the appropriate power state, and disable the watchdog:

Code:
nvidia-xconfig -s -a --force-generate --allow-empty-initial-configuration \
        --cool-bits=12 --registry-dwords="PerfLevelSrc=0x2222" \
        --no-sli --connected-monitor="DFP-0" -o /etc/X11/xorg.conf

sed -i '/Driver/a \ \ \ \ Option         "Interactive" "False"' /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Once this is done you can start/restart Xorg and configure the GPU via nvidia-settings (just as you would with amdcofig.) We need to set PowerMizer to maximum performance, enable fan control, set the GPU fan speed to 100%, and set a graphics clock offset of 100-250 Mhz to compensate for PowerMizer:

Code:
export DISPLAY=:0

nvidia-settings -a GPUPowerMizerMode=1 \
                -a GPUFanControlState=1 \
                -a GPUCurrentFanSpeed=100 \
                -a GPUGraphicsClockOffset[3]=100

That's all there is to it. Not much different from AMD, just different tools.
