hitagi: Switch to Intel Arc A770
Things are not very smooth yet. Hwmon only works with Kernel 6.2 and
only supports energy monitoring (and even that doesn’t look too good).
Fan control and temperature is not supported. To get at least usage
statistics, intel_gpu_top can be used. Mangohud in its newest unreleased
version also supports getting stats from it. However, intel_gpu_top
needs cap_perfmon, which is a pain to get working inside the double
bubblewrap sandbox for steam, therefore it is not yet available.

On the positive side, OpenCL works well and oneAPI also works with
blender-bin from nix-warez (nixpkgs doesn’t yet have blender with oneAPI
support).

Hardware

Custom build.

  • Motherboard: GIGABYTE B550 AORUS ELITE V2 (rev 1.0)
  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X
  • RAM: 2×16GB G.Skill Aegis DDR4-3200 CL16 (not because it is anything special)
  • PSU: be quiet! System Power 10 750W
  • Main SSD: 250GB Samsung 970 Evo Pro NVMe
  • Secondary SSD: 256GB micron MTFDDAK256TBN-1AR15ABHA SATA
  • HDD: 2TB Toshiba HDWA120
  • GPU: Sapphire Nitro+ Radeon RX 480 (8GiB VRAM)
  • Case fans: 2 be quiet! Pure Wings 2 140mm (included in case), 3 more with PWM
  • CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-U12S with an additional NF-F12 PWM

This replaces sayuri, which features an enterprise HP firmware without fan control, an ancient Intel platform that is only usable in YOLO mode (mitigations=off) and proprietary case, motherboard and power supply.

Purpose

Tasks that require large amounts of CPU power, a medium amount of GPU power or have to run while I do other things (on my laptop).
