Purpose: TuxClocker is a hardware controlling and monitoring program consisting of a D-Bus daemon and Qt GUI.
Multi-device support: The program supports any number of devices at once.
Device properties: Users can read and write device properties by selecting a node to edit.
NVIDIA support: Supported NVIDIA features include fan control, clocks, power limits, temperatures, utilization and VRAM monitoring, with voltage setting and reading for 600–900 series GPUs under Xorg.
AMD support: Supported AMD features include fan control, clock editing, performance parameter control, voltage monitoring, VRAM monitoring and voltage-frequency curve editing on applicable GPUs.
CPU monitoring: CPU features include frequency and utilization monitoring, governor settings, frequency limits, power usage monitoring and energy-power preference settings.
Installation: The project provides a prebuilt tarball from its release page and distribution packages for openSUSE Tumbleweed.
Prerequisites: NVIDIA editing requires Coolbits, while AMD editing requires the amdgpu.ppfeaturemask boot parameter.
Integrations: Optional dependencies integrate NVIDIA support through libnvml and libxnvctrl, AMD support through libdrm, and prettier AMD names through python-hwdata.
Support: Project questions and suggestions can be discussed through bridged Matrix and IRC chats.
Translations: Translations use GNU gettext and can be contributed through Weblate or locally via pull requests.
