Hi,
I’m experiencing some thermal shutdown issues with GTX 1050 Ti with Dell XPS 15 9570.
I installed CUDA 9.0 with driver 390.77.
I would like to limit the GPU clock but by running the following command
nvidia-smi -q -d SUPPORTED_CLOCKS
The output is
==============NVSMI LOG==============
Timestamp : Fri Mar 8 13:00:07 2019
Driver Version : 390.77
Attached GPUs : 1
GPU 00000000:01:00.0
Supported Clocks : N/A
Thus, I’d like to ask if it is possible to limit the clock of the GPU?
Thank you very much in advance.
Though I would rather clean/repair the cooling system, you can try any of those:

Use another value than 0x1. This will probably limit the clocks more than you want in any case, though.
The supported/application clocks setting is mostly only available on quadro/teslas and refers to compute applications.
Hi generix,
Thank you for your reply, actually Dell just replaced my motherboard so the system is brand new.
I tried to add
options nvidia NVreg_RegistryDwords="OverrideMaxPerf=0x1"
to /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia.conf
But this file didn’t exist, I created it and added the line. After restarting the system, NVIDIA X Server setting showed that the GPU is still at level 3 performance.
Did I do something wrong?
Thx!
Hi, again,
After executing
sudo update-initramfs -u
The config file works!
Thank you so much!
