What actually controls the tor relay? TORRC or nyx?

I realize NYX is a 'monitor'. However nyx allows for   command line changes; i.e bandwidth/ports etc.

The torrc.

Then if you connect to the relay's ControlPort/ControlSocket, you can change most options even while the relay is running. These changes are NOT SAVED to the torrc.

That's what nyx does.
