Piggybacking on this… do all nvidia cards have the same issue with Linux drivers, where the fan won’t ever go below 30%? I have a 3090 on Ubuntu 24 and hours of googling netted nothing that worked.




FWIW - the fans on my 4070ti super turn off during idle in pop, bazzite, and cachy (just like on windows). Definitely no being stuck at 30% that I’ve experienced

That might just be your card idling at a hot temperature; my 3070 Ti is idling with 0% fan according to nvtop and LACT both.

Install GWE or Lact and you should be able to tweak the fan curves manually from Linux.
