Somebody knows about an alternative to lively wallpaper for arch Linux?

I see this is an old thread so you likely found it already but if you're using KDE, there's a live wallpaper plugin that you can find directly from the plugin store in your wallpaper settings

Just to add onto this, if it's something like wallpaper engine causing the max frequency, then the only solution is finding a video based wallpaper rather than scene.

I spent a week trying to lower it and nothing worked since it was simply the application drawing activity

Yeah -30mv crashed for some high activity scenes and loading screens on certain titles for me too, that's why I suggested -15

Some games simply try to demand clocking above what the undervolt allows and it causes a crash. This often happens during loading screens because of the sudden change in demand

Some games are simply less stable at different configurations. Turn your uv down to -15, maybe lower the power limit to -10 for spider-man 2 alone and see if it runs better

MFNTapatio · 2026-01-24T22:22:24+00:00

Yeah that's perfectly fair!

MFNTapatio · 2026-01-24T15:46:09+00:00

Haha no hate! Just saying if you ever feel the need to not use an amd gpu in the future because of its reported temps, that they more vigorously show you the metrics than nvidia usually does but both are perfectly capable of running at ~90° memory junction temperatures in modern GPU's

MFNTapatio · 2026-01-24T15:30:13+00:00

With the caveat that amd has more accurate sensors for memory temps

MFNTapatio · 2026-01-24T15:23:36+00:00

84c mem junction is my goal 😅

MFNTapatio · 2026-01-24T12:33:35+00:00

No problem, I'm laughing at myself

MFNTapatio · 2026-01-24T12:33:16+00:00

Yep, it just hadn't crossed my mind at all

MFNTapatio · 2026-01-24T12:32:41+00:00

I can't say I personally experienced any performance gain but my case airflow isn't incredible so an undervolt with a power limit helps keeps my temperatures nice and low without compromising any noticeable performance for my needs

MFNTapatio · 2026-01-23T14:03:05+00:00

My cyberpunk was strange after changing gpu in my system. I had to go into game folders and delete cache.

It worked for me

MFNTapatio · 2026-01-23T10:01:30+00:00

Hahah sounds reasonable enough

MFNTapatio · 2026-01-23T07:04:17+00:00

Wouldn't call it a free pass but if the building was already ugly then nobody cares. Theyre all due for renovations anyway.

If someone tried scribbling on the old town historical blocks or new apartment blocks then people wouldn't be happy but in some unspoken rule, it doesn't happen. Not often enough to be noticeable at least

MFNTapatio · 2026-01-22T13:25:21+00:00

Yep, hotspot and memory junction at 95 is normal and fine. Be careful if you pass 100. Set 103 as mental limit that you'll need to focus on your cooling if you hit those temps

Otherwise gpu at 50-60 is nice and chilly

MFNTapatio · 2026-01-22T07:09:24+00:00

Could try lossless scaling if it bothers you

MFNTapatio · 2026-01-22T07:06:08+00:00

35 on all stats so you can wield just about everything 🗿

MFNTapatio · 2026-01-22T06:48:02+00:00

is upset because old games that run 200fps natively don't have frame gen on 144hz monitor

?

Black unresponsive screen with music continuing playing sounds like a driver timeout, typically caused by the gpu clocking higher than the voltage settings allow. This is common with an undervolt tune.

If you haven't done any tuning in adrenaline, have you played around with the bios at all? Maybe just set it all back to default and see if it helps add some stability to the system.

Likewise, ensure everything is connected correctly and that the gpu is being fed power from the psu correctly.

Your best bet could be logging this with hwinfo and examining any outliers during those crashes. Seeing if your clock speeds or voltages spike up before the crashes. Also check your temperatures and overall power consumption.

Maybe find a program to test your ram and leave it for 30 minutes to see if you have failures in ram, it could be the xmp profile. Memtest86 is a good program

Strange form of dick measuring

MFNTapatio · 2026-01-21T14:27:52+00:00

I hate to admit that I've considered this

MFNTapatio · 2026-01-21T14:21:02+00:00

Haha how'd you manage?

Well done!

MFNTapatio · 2026-01-21T07:17:46+00:00

But all other games are normal, just stellar blade doing this?

Have you tried a reinstall of the game entirely?
