While previously considered not to be available on Linux, LACT now has a VF curve editor for Nvidia GPUs that allows for more precise tweaking in a similar manner to Windows tools such as MSI Afterburner.

Also new is the NVidia tool PenguinBurner, which can now also auto scan for most optimal undervolts instead of just importing an Afterburner undervolt profile from Windows.

Some parts of the UI are kinda bad after this update. Like overly big elements and unproperly scaled/sized popups that dont show the entire content of text fields. Overall a nice upgrade though.

LACT has always been kinda janky looking for me (AMD)

I actually used this today to lower the max frequency for my gpu. Worked as expected and the card now runs much cooler, like 30 degrees cooler, and dont notice any performance drops so far.
