Hopped back into linux, now gwe won’t apply overclocks. Using nvidia driver 545.29.02. Already did the coolbits thing, and whenever I apply a overclock it won’t oc and it will just prompt “error applying overclock”. Please help!

    That issue started to kick in after having installed the latest beta drivers. I have found that X11 needs to run in root mode in order to allow overclocking:

    Adding needs_root_rights = yes to /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config is neccessary to restore OC capabilities.

      Don’t tell people to run X11 in root mode. Overclocking works fine with the latest Vulkan beta drivers (AND the 545 drivers), so something is wrong on your end. I just tested both.
