AdaptiveCStates
|
Adaptive C-States allow the system to dynamically detect high usage of a discrete graphics and adjust system parameters for higher performance during that time period. This feature requires an AC adapter due to higher energy consumption, and dynamically it is not possible to activate higher performance without an appropriate AC adapter. Other settings that conserve power may block the utilization of this feature. The following are the possible values:
