WHAT IS ULTIMATE PERFORMANCE MODE

• It is rolled out only for Work Stations having Windows 10 Pro as Operating System.
• This feature cannot be enabled on battery-powered devices like laptops.
• Manually, it can be enabled in Laptops using Power Shell. However, this will consume too much power.
• Microsoft disabled the function as standard on laptops because the mode works to remove micro-latencies to enhance the performance and thus consumes more power.
• Microsoft says that Ultimate Performance Mode will make the following changes in your system.
  • Hard Disk will always be on "ON" state and will never turn off. Thus it turns off sleep mode for Hard disk.
  • CPU will never be on rest.
• • Wireless Adapter Settings is set to Maximum Performance.
• • The Hibernation mode is turned off.
• • Processor power management is fixed to 100%.
• • The display will turn off only after 15 minutes of inactivity.
• • The quality of video playback is optimized.
