Hello there, it's more of a question than an actual issue just learned about TuneD from the list of updated software.
Currently I'm trying to increase my minimal CPU frequency - I want to achieve higher baseline power consumption, I know it's crazy.
I tried using cpupower for that and it almost worked, but the issue was that the frequency still dropped below the limit sometimes on some cores (this is critical in my particular weirdo scenario).
Then I tried to play with tuned, activated different profiles, but noticed no difference in floor frequencies - they are at 600MHz in any profile.
So the question then is what does tuned actually do if the frequencies remain unchanged?
P.S. I've got a modern fancy PSU that enters "burst mode" when the power consumption is low, that "burst mode" is designated to improve power efficiency, but the problem is that it produces disturbing coil whine, which really bothers me.

Does not affect floor CPU frequency
Question: Does it affect floor CPU frequency?

Also a little more context: I've disabled C-states in BIOS, that in combination with "Performance" power plan helped to "fix" my issue on Windows. On Linux, however, it's not quite that simple.
My system:
ASUS TUF B850 Plus Wifi motherboard, up to date BIOS.
Ryzen 7 9700X CPU,
Fedora 41 fresh install.
