To get as much as I can out of this gt710 even it is just +10/15 % performance, till the limit before migrating to new GTX 1080/90. And I need it that could be possible natively on Linux. THX 4 replies.

Hey Brandon which TIM was under my GT710, because changing with mx2 temp drops to 36 C°

@EVGATech_BrandonS

Why does my EVGA GT710 lp sl 2GB does not qualifies for the STEP UP program? And someone can step up to the cheaper gpu than mine (know that seems impossible but that's it)? Why does not advertise the step up program (it is just 1st time you organised that a wonderful idea?)? Thx

 
I presume that you have nvidia-settings installed? 
 
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-xorg.conf should have the following lines to maintain the clock speeds at max.
Section "Device"
  Identifier "My GPU"
  Driver "nvidia"
  Option "RegistryDwords" "PowerMizerEnable=0x1; PerfLevelSrc=0x2222; PowerMizerDefaultAC=0x1"
  Option "Coolbits" "12"
EndSection

Opening nvidia-settings, go to the PowerMizer tab, and you will find that level 0 performance levels are grayed out, and level 1 performance puts both GPU , while crunching numbers for folding at homeand memory clocks at max.  Attempting to change "preferred mode" has no effect.

I'm beginning to feel like a salesman for EVGA - two posts, and two recommendations for the 730. When do I get a commission?
I hope some of that helps.  ;^)
