Clever name in some regards, terrible in others. It's... fine?

CoreCtrl adds power profiles support for AMD RX 7600

Quoting: ElectricPrismJust to comment on AMD PowerColor 7900 XTX -- it's not like 6900 XT -- I set an aggressive fan curve and have [ Performance Mode Fixed ] set to [ High ] and it makes no difference in fan speed.

Maybe I should report a bug? Or maybe the GPU is working as intended (still 55-62 C idle seems high).
Setting fan curve is a problem with RDNA3 currently, as can be seen in the reported and heavily discussed issues. There are workarounds.
