Activate the High Performance plan

CPU & PowerModerate riskReversible

Switches to the built-in High Performance power plan, which keeps the CPU at higher clocks and stops aggressive downclocking. A milder, laptop-friendlier alternative to Ultimate Performance. Reverting switches you back to the Balanced plan.

How MaxTweaks applies this
