Using thermald to avoid thermal throttling
- Install
thermald
for your distro, on many distros it might be installed by default - Copy the
thermal-conf.xml
file into the/etc/thermald/
directory - Depending on your ambient temperature you might want to lower the
<Temperature>
line to make thermald kick in more aggressively. (65000 = 65°C) - Copy the
thermal-cpu-cdev-order.xml
file into the/etc/thermald/
directory - Run
sudo systemctl restart thermald
Making Fedora respect your config files
Fedora uses the --adaptive
option by default, thus ignoring your config files. This might also apply to some other distros.
Edit /usr/lib/systemd/system/thermald.service
and remove --adaptive
from the ExecStart=
line. Then do a systemctl daemon-reload
so systemd realizes the change. Thermald should then respect your configuration files.
