Power Modes
Power Modes
allows you to adjust the power mode by
clicking the appropriate icon.
•
Power Saving mode
saves battery life (CPU Turbo Boost
will be on and dGPU Turbo will be off).
•
Quiet mode
focuses on reducing fan noise and will
decrease both CPU and dGPU power.
•
Entertainment mode
balances CPU and dGPU power and
is ideal for watching videos etc.
•
Performance mode
is ideal for gaming with higher CPU
and dGPU performance.
Fan Speed Control
You can set the fan speed to
Maximum
(full power),
Au-
tomatic
/
Slient
or
Custom
. The fan speed will adjust itself
automatically to control the heat of the CPU/GPU. You
can use the
Offset
slider to adjust the settings to your pref-
erence. However you can adjust the setting to
Maximum
if you prefer.
The
Custom
setting allows you to click and drag on any
of the 2 midrange nodes on the graph in order to adjust the
temperature parameters of the
CPU Fan
or
GPU Fan
.
Max-Q
If your NVIDIA video adapter supports
Max-Q
(check
with your distributor/supplier) technology you can set the
fan to
Max-Q
. When the Max-Q setting is enabled, and
the system is operating within suitable power/perfor-
mance parameters, the GPU will consume less power,
produce less heat, and therefore the fans will not need to
spin so much, resulting in a quieter system.
All these settings can be overidden by the system, as a
safety precaution, if it requires heavier use of the fan
.
