Any #Linux users on #IntelArc here?

I bought an Intel Arc A750 and it looks fancy, works for gaming and AV1 encoding (after adding "vpl-gpu-rt" recompiling the kernel for that I guess), but I cannot control the fan at all!

The fan mode is "automatic" and on full power all the time which is crazy loud.

I tried everything, updated my kernel to 6.18 longterm, used a windows install to use that intel tool to upgrade the GPU firmware, no change.

Now I plan on connecting the fan to the case fan connector and controlling it through BIOS (I can read temperature now so that is okay-ish I guess).

I couldn't find a single report of this being a thing at all, do these GPUs really have THAT shitty drivers? I thought it was just performance issues (which I didnt really see).

Intel Arc GPU configuration & hardware control issues (fan speed, temp sensor, firmware upgrades)

I bought an Intel Arc A750, this is my configuration, any comments? It builds, but does it make sense? { config, lib, pkgs, ...}: { # Enable OpenGL hardware.graphics.enable = true; # automatic hardware.intel-gpu-tools.enable = true; # allow shared intel gpu in VMs virtualisation.kvmgt.enable = true; # video playback hardware acceleration #ffmpeg.hwaccel_args = "preset-vaapi"; # WHERE TO SET THIS?? hardware.graphics.extraPackages = with pkgs; [ intel-media-driver # for newer hardw...

NVIDIA GPU Cluster Liquidation: Maximize ROI and Asset Recovery
The shift to Blackwell is accelerating the depreciation of NVIDIA A100, H100, and H200 clusters. What were recently frontier training assets are now facing mid-life value cliffs due to performance-per-watt gaps, power density limits, and liquid-cooling requirements.

This turns GPU cluster liquidation into a capital strategy, not just decommissioning. Timing the secondary market, preserving service records to capture refurbished premiums, and enforcing IEEE 2883 data sanitization are key to maximizing ROI and funding next-generation deployments.

In compressed AI refresh cycles, asset recovery speed directly impacts infrastructure competitiveness.

Are your "empty" GPUs actually leaking proprietary data?

Most enterprise security protocols are built for the era of HDDs and SSDs. But in the age of AI, your NVIDIA H100s and A100s are the new data-bearing frontiers.

The misconception that GPUs are "stateless" is a legacy mindset. Recent research into vulnerabilities like LeftoverLocals proves that uninitialized GPU memory can leak significant data across user boundaries—up to 181 MB per query.

If you are decommissioning a cluster, a simple factory reset isn't enough to satisfy NIST 800-88 compliance. You need:

VRAM Sanitization: Overwriting memory buffers to eliminate data remanence.

Firmware Verification: Flashing BIOS to remove custom configurations.

Documented Chain of Custody: Serial-level tracking to protect your brand from $60M-level liability.

Don't let your high-performance hardware become a high-performance liability.
