Looks similar https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/0004-NVreg-Improvements.patch?h=nvidia-dkms-performance

Yep, that's @ventureoo 😄

Why not adding NVreg_EnablePCIeGen3=1 ? even though if it's not compatible it should do fallback

This is not required on desktop cards. The default PCIe Gen 2 mode of operation is only for Quadro, Tesla, and NVS Kepler, which is not a common case. See: #3

As I said before, please do not split the use of each option into separate lines.

[dougg0k]

It's much more readable to have in each separated. And they work the same way. Your common practice here seems just because someone else did like that first.

Since powermizer is dead , maybe remove it?

We may want to remove this when we stop supporting older driver versions like 390xx.

[dougg0k]

Maybe this would be another to have as optional. NVreg_DynamicPowerManagementVideoMemoryThreshold=0

It was enabled by default in the 555 driver.

[dougg0k]

can be optionally enabled

[Edgars-Cirulis]

can be optionally enabled

To disable it? Why. Its good feature. It's enabled by default on 555.

[Edgars-Cirulis]

Good choice if it doesn't support 10bit it will fallback to 8bit :)

We will not need anymore to enable fbdev and modeset you can make it optimally to disable it.

We've already patched this into the driver for a long time already. Furthermore, we have our own packages for NVIDIA and do not depend on Arch.

We still need it here for older driver versions such as 470.xx

This is not moving forward, if you decided to add, just merge, after.
