The other document was for the was for motherboard/Chassis fans.  
(Each motherboard/BIOS is a bit different)

The NVIDIA “CLI” requires desktop software installed also.

To set to Adaptive:

```auto
sudo nvidia-xconfig --enable-all-gpus
sudo nvidia-xconfig --cool-bits=4
sudo nvidia-settings -a GPUPowerMizerMode=0  
sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf

```

To set to Max performance:

```auto
sudo nvidia-xconfig --enable-all-gpus
sudo nvidia-xconfig --cool-bits=4
sudo nvidia-settings -a GPUPowerMizerMode=2
sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf

```

If your GUI fails to come up you may need to login and remove the xorg.conf:  
sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
