Boinc Crunching: How to activate Windows "Ultimate Peformance" Mode

in #boinc7 years ago

Since Windows 10s April Update you can add the Energy Option "Ultimate Performance". I can't tell you if this impacts your PCs performance that much, but I think it is worth trying out:) Maybe someone tested if and how much of an Impact it had on their PCs performance. If you did please share the results in the comments with us!

How to add and activate it:

  1. Open the Windows CMD as admin
  1. Type (or just copy paste xD) the following

    powercfg -duplicatescheme e9a42b02-d5df-448d-aa00-03f14749eb61

  2. Open:
    Windows Settings>System>Power Settings>Additional Power Settings
    And then click on "Addtional Plans"
    Now you only need to click on the field next to "Ultimate Performance"

Done!
Happy Crunching! ;) <3

Ugh man, if they really had to go with something that cheesy they could at least have embraced the meme and go with UNLIMITED POWEEER .

Would not recommend it, though, very small gains, but a good chance for problems to arise.
