Make sure those numbers match in the NVIDIA X Server Settings.\n```\nsudo nano /usr/bin/overclock.sh\n!/bin/bash\nnvidia-settings -a '[gpu:0]/GPUGraphicsClockOffset[1]=#'\n\nnvidia-settings -a '[gpu:0]/GPUGraphicsMemoryOffset[1]=#1'\n\nnvidia-settings -a '[gpu:0]/GPUMemoryTransferRateOffset[1]=#1'\n\nnvidia-settings -a '[gpu:0]/GPUFanControlState=1'\n\nnvidia-settings -a '[fan:0]/GPUTargetFanSpeed=#'\n```\nNext make it executable\n```\nsudo chmod +x /usr/bin/overclock.sh\n```\nAnd add it to startup for XFCE its in Application\u003eSettings\u003eSettings Manager\u003eSession and Startup\u003eApplication Autostart\nThen click on Add. Give it a name, desciption and in command type \n```\nbash /usr/bin/overclock.sh\n```\nThat will automatically overclock your GPU at startup.\n\nTo make sure it works reboot for the last and final time and enjoy your overclocked GPU.\n","funding_links":[],"categories":[],"sub_categories":[],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fbeangreen247%2Flinux_nvidia_gpu_overclocking_guide","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fbeangreen247%2Flinux_nvidia_gpu_overclocking_guide","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fbeangreen247%2Flinux_nvidia_gpu_overclocking_guide/lists"}
