Shift seems to change the Power Plan in Windows, but it might make some other changes.Įver since i've reinstalled dragon center, I use it to manage my power states, I have a fair understanding of how the profiles link to the power states and work as necessary.
For improved battery life, try using either Comfort or ECO. For maximum performance use either Sport or Turbo (OC mode). Within Dragon Center, under System Tuner, and then check Shift (might also tied to a function key, fn + F7 for me). I created 2 additional settings, based on power saving and balanced respectively, and did not touch high performance.Īlternatively, you can use Dragon Center (maybe just SCM) to handle the power plans. ENHANCED COOLING DESIGN FOR HIGHER POWER GAMING. If i unplug my laptop, my frequency drops to 40% in task manager (and other monitoring apps). Easily activate it by pressing the FN + F7 hotkey combo, or via the Dragon Center. For example: if i am on balanced, my max state on battery is 40% and plugged in is 60%. I experimented with everything in the usual power settings, I didn't alter the balanced or power saving settings apart from their max/min processor states. If you are using profiles via Windows Power Plans, be sure to use the correct one as a template. High performance has Speedstep "disabled" and balanced has it "enabled". Check Windows Power Options or, in particular, the power plan you are using.
