PBO and GPU not boosting as high vs windows
Hi!
So I've been dailying bazzite for almost a month now. But I have noticed when I hop into my windows ssd for my dual boot and on the same game from the same drive my ryzen 5800x (non 3d vcache) boost a bit higher and consistently vs bazzite.
Idk if this is an issue with a mobo setting because I have read on a reddit post it could be some PBO enhancement setting thats locking my clocks to the Oem boost instead of allowing it to boost beyond until it hits power or thermal it's like on windows.
And with the gpu I think it's a different issue that I haven't found anything on. I run an asrock 7900 xtx aqua with a special bios flashed on it to raise the power limit to about 460 (but I've observe spikes up to 560 on bazzite and almost 700 on windows) but in bazzite my gpu seems to have issues sustaining the higher PL so my core clocks I've noticed fluctuate more vs windows. On windows I can sustain 3-3.3ghz but on Linux it doesn't like boosting beyond high 2.9ghz
My 1% lows do suffer a little bit when my cpu and gpu keeps bouncing off the power limits.
My whole system is watercooled with 3x360 MoRA so I'm not thermally limited, if anything the CPU and gpu runs hotter on windows because they can fully run out the power limit before temperature is a problem.
