LACT 0.8.4 Brings Improved Overclocking UI For GPUs On Linux

([Hardware] 4 Hours Ago LACT 0.8.4)


In the absence of any official GUI control panel from AMD or Intel for their graphics cards on Linux, LACT remains a popular choice particularly for AMD Radeon Linux gamers/enthusiasts to manage various aspects of their GPU from a convenient UI. LACT also supports Intel GPUs and some features on NVIDIA GPUs too. Out today is LACT 0.8.4 for further enhancing this third-party GPU driver user interface.

LACT 0.8.4 brings various user interface improvements to the GPU overclocking page. With NVIDIA GPUs on their Linux driver having NVIDIA-Settings at least for managing GPU overclocking, this LACT functionality is most useful for AMD Radeon graphics cards that otherwise are left to overclocking via the command-line.

The OC page received the most changes but other aspects of the LACT UI were also enhanced.

LACT 0.8.4 also offers Docker packaging for those interested, more power sensors are now exposed for AMD hardware, more efficient statistics fetching for AMD, and a variety of other fixes and improvements.

Delores breezed along the surface of her life like a flat stone forever
skipping along smooth water, rippling reality sporadically but oblivious
to it consistently, until she finally lost momentum, sank, and due to an
overdose of flouride as a child which caused her to suffer from chronic
apathy, doomed herself to lie forever on the floor of her life as useless
as an appendix and as lonely as a five-hundred pound barbell in a
steroid-free fitness center.
