I’m using an ASUS ExpertBook B9 with an i7-1165G7, no dedicated GPU. I always need to switch to a performance profile in order to run games. This works fine on Windows 10 but when trying the performance power profile on an Ubuntu 24.04.3 live USB I do not hear any difference in fan speed, presumably because GNOME’s power profile feature doesn’t work with my hardware.
Is there any other way I can increase fan speed before playing games and then bring them back down to normal when I’m done gaming? I asked about this on Ubuntu’s forum but got no response.
I considered that might be the case, but I was just hoping to test it on a live USB before installing Linux as that’d save me a lot of time and trouble. If it doesn’t work I’d ultimately need to install Windows 11 instead until I can get a computer with better compatibility.
