Hi @T4X_X4T,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
 

Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.
 

I'm sorry, but the OMEN Gaming Hub, which is used to manage and optimize the gaming performance on HP OMEN and Victus laptops, is not officially supported on Ubuntu or any other Linux-based operating system. The OMEN Gaming Hub is specifically designed for Windows operating systems and offers features like performance control, fan speed adjustments, and other gaming optimizations.
 

For managing fan speeds and other performance aspects on Ubuntu, you might need to rely on third-party tools that are available for Linux, although these won't provide the same integration and features as the OMEN Gaming Hub. 

Some command-line tools like lm-sensors and fancontrol can sometimes be configured to adjust fan speeds based on temperature sensors, but these require manual setup and may not offer the same level of control.

Regarding the performance of AAA games, running these games on Ubuntu can sometimes result in reduced performance compared to Windows, as certain games might not be optimized for Linux. Tools like Wine (with Proton through Steam) are often used to play Windows games on Linux, but performance can vary widely depending on the game and system configuration.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have an amazing day!
