Actually, generally we do not want to provide any "improvements", which can be found somehwere in 2014, where linux was in a different state. We really need to carefully review these and find references, as well as need to retest if this is really an improvement.

Often, such tweaks can also introduce issue, therefore should be tested.

The sound changes are generally looking good, but we need to test this a bit more.

NVIDIA:

I have checked related to rebar, and CPU-X is reporting that rebar is enabled. Checking "sudo dmesg | grep BAR" does not give me any info, how much is used. Will retest with the variable.

On the other NVIDIA stuff, we need to check, if this can be really globally applied and brings an improvement.

On the nvidia, I checked through here cat /proc/driver/nvidia/params, though the values were only changed after a sudo mkinitcpio -P

It seems nothing is wanted, you can just close the PR.

We didn't want to discourage you from contributing, it's just you should have tested each and every option and understood a bit deeply into how each config setting works and how it weighs between the pros and cons. I've seen that you've cited some sources for the config options but you didn't go to detail as to: 1. why it should be added, is it a problem that affects the majority of the userbase 2. Does the benefits of setting these config options outweight any possible downside from setting it

I'm sorry, but that's just too much for one PR. You can split it and then we can test this properly and discuss what changes need to be made. Any settings should be something that works well for everyone, edge cases are something that should be described in the wiki or done under some condition.
