How can I change fan speeds for performance? (lemmy.ca)

I'm using an ASUS ExpertBook B9 with an i7-1165G7, no dedicated GPU. I always need to switch to a performance profile in order to run games. This works fine on Windows 10 but when trying the performance power profile on an Ubuntu 24.04.3 live USB I do not hear any difference in fan speed, presumably because GNOME's power profile feature doesn't work with my hardware.

Is there any other way I can increase fan speed before playing games and then bring them back down to normal when I'm done gaming? I asked about this on Ubuntu's forum but got no response.

You can use fancontrol-gui to fine tune a curve, but generally the bios has a solution. I dont believe the gpu fans can be tuned from bios or fancontrol if thats a priority. For the gpu i use GWE (green with envy) for Nvidia I dont know about AMD. Best of luck

Edit* just re read the post, integrated graphics. So thats useless unless you have a second pc or smthn
