  • Hello, 

     

    I did try but didn't find any spec that clearly explains what are following settings doing in BIOS

     

    Advanced -> Power Management Options

    • Runtime Power Management
    • Extended Idle Power States
    • Power Control
    Screenshot 2024-05-04 at 21.53.20.png

    Could someone point me to manual or post clarification. 

    How i see it
  • Runtime Power Management
    (When checked, enables the notebook to support power management applications such as IPM+ that help enterprises reduce power costs by intelligently managing the battery usage of the notebook.
    When checked, enables the processor to run at lower frequencies (P-states) when higher performance is not
    needed. When unchecked the processor always runs at maximum frequency)

  • Extended Idle Power States 
    (When checked, enables the processor to rest in lower power states (C-states) when idle) 

  • Power Control 
    (When checked, enables the notebook to support power management applications such as IPM+ that help
    enterprises reduce power costs by intelligently managing the battery usage of the notebook) 


    Benchmarks (CPU-Z test, Super Pi 1M, browser test Speedometer 2.0 and 3.0) give best results with all enable 

    Much Appreciated your answer that could share some light on this options and their functions
    Thanks in advance to the community and your answers

    With respect Art.

    P.s. How ever by default option "Max DC performance"  disable, and it's worth to enbale (checked) for better performance
