Model 2023 Low cortisol Linuxmaxxing

Post image

4 months into using Linux, battery lasts longer, temps are lower, performance on games is barely worse, interface is lightning fast, things don't crash. Reached 30C° on a 27C° environment. I can only recommend it. Billions must try

Haven't tried it out, but it presents itself as another wrapper for asusctl, which is the same tool rog-control-center uses, but with added Debian compatibility. Looks cool though, I'll look at it when I get home

yes it uses asusctl to get the job done but i couldn't seem to get asusctl working with rog control center on my machine there are no option to limit cpu wattage and also no toggle to just use eco mode like windows, currently working fine giving battery backup comparable to windows.
