I was watching Linus' video on the 1660 super and I realised Nvidia has a lot of cool options for it that I can't get because I use Linux. What are the best GUI tools for Nvidia gpus?

Wine cant communicate with graphics cards properly in that way. Plus it would be running in wine, so how would I be able to use those settings in linux games?

Want kind of options do you need? You can enable some extra things by setting the coolbits option in your X config.

I couldn't figure out how to enable coolbits. And I kind of want to use NULL as well.

Tbh, you're better off without enabling it for your own sake. If you still want to do so, you can edit your xorg config file and ready about the coolbits here.

 

Also, I don't think NULL is a thing for their linux driver, but don't quote me on that.
