Sorry for this wall of text

The question is, do I need any additional elements shown in What dnf search nvidia shows to be installed, to make my Nvidia Rtx 3060 run fairly smooth, or I’m just doomed?
Should I use drivers from Nvidia site directly?

The funny thing is that it is 12 GTB card and renders videos slower and they are overall worse than those I rendered with my chipper and weaker radeon 6600XT with 8 GB memory
They sed use nvidia it will be better for video production eeee bulshit people! do not make my mistake

THX in advance

Information for all users: If one wishes to post what repos you have enabled please just run dnf repolist and post the entire output of that. Posting an article I wrote does not tell what is actually on you system. dnf repolist does tell us that.

The single most important aspect of using OMLx repos is this:

And this is extremely, ultra, majorly, important. Do not mix the repository versions. If you use Rock use rock repos only. If you use ROME(rolling) use rolling repos only. If you use Cooker use cooker repos only.

Ben, thank you for the info and clarification

Repos are ok I mean they are not mixed

And everytime my monitors go sleap i see this

Im in a process of tracing the issue

Im deeply sory for my shitty english

:point_up:

gpu on cpu is turned of in bios /uefi

You shouldn’t need to do that unless you are testing the kernel. Even then, we have the dkms modules for that. Simplify things down to a single monitor and as few peripherals as you can. Then start adding things to see what breaks.

Ok I will remember that
If that NVIDIA breaks, I will never ever buy another one, my curiosity dooms me.
F*uck

If something works, and works well do not change that, ever If it breaks buy higher model or some exact thing

Sorry for rambling

Take care people

Those additional packages solve the issue (so far)
dnf install nvidia-settings.x86_64 dnf install nvidia-dkms-kmod.x86_64
