Will it work on today latest drivers

kinda doubt it, on Ubuntu 16.04, the interface for activating "compute mode" was something like

set pp_power_profile_mode to the magic number 4

and around Ubuntu 18.04 the interface changed to like

activate pp_compute_power_profile

so it wouldn't surprise me if the correct way to set compute-mode has changed yet again by ubuntu 20.04...

in any case, i don't have any system to test on, so i don't know.

made a new ubuntu 20.04 version based on the link provided by liolok ^^ this version doesn't seem to work on 18.04 though.
