NVIDIA dynamic boost wattage

Hi, I have an Asus vivobook pro 16x oled (M7600QC) optimus laptop with a dedicated Nvidia RTX 3050 Max-Q rated 50w. When I try to use the dedicated Nvidia GPU on Linux, the wattage is only 35w. If I enable the “nvidia-powerd” daemon, it goes up to ~40w. Is there a way to raise the wattage to the rated 50w like on Windows?...

Dreadful6644,

nvidia-smi -pl POWER

This will probably not work with recent driver versions, but might work with 525.

Dreadful6644,

Also, if cpu draws too much power, you will not get the dynamic power boost. Try to limit your cpu wattage. The dynamic boost is up to 15W, depending on how much power the rest of your system uses.
