amdvlk, any reason you're not using the Mesa driver, RADV?

... I can't undervolt my card...

People usually use/recommend LACT for undervolting/overlocking on Linux

What is your:

  1. Kernel
  2. Linux-firmware
  3. Mesa

Versions?

Additionally, what does the kernel logs tell you when you get a green screen?

Have you enabled Southern Islands support as a kernel parameter? Your generation of GPU was originally supported on radeon, so you need to explicitly enable SI (Southern Islands) support to use amdgpu.

See ArchWiki for more information

Pretty sure that information is stored in the driver, so you should be able to query it using monitoring software, i.e. see:

NVML-API

I know tooling like nvtop uses the API, but unsure whether it displays the maximum temperature

There is a patch-series that is now merged into 6.15-rc1 that exposes more i2c/RGB controllers on the GPU side for AMD cards, so that kernel + OpenRGB (as others have mentioned) might be a solution down the line

Patch series for reference: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/amd-gfx/2025-January/118399.html
