How To Enable Ultimate Performance In Windows 11

As you all know Windows 11 included an “Ultimate Performance” power strategy from Microsoft. It’s based on the High-Performance power scheme, but it aims to squeeze every last bit of performance out of it. Here in this post, we will show you how To enable ultimate performance in windows 11

What is the ultimate performance in windows 11

The Ultimate Performance power plan is a preset power plan designed for high-power systems to provide an additional performance boost. It’s the ideal option for systems like workstations and servers, where every little bit of performance gain counts.

The Ultimate Performance in Windows 11 plan removes polling of hardware to determine whether it requires additional power and allows the hardware to consume all of the power it requires. In addition, all power-saving features are turned off to boost performance even further. As a result, workstations that run on battery power are not offered this option by default because it consumes more power and kills your battery faster.

The Ultimate Performance power plan eliminates the micro-latencies associated with fine-grained power management strategies. Simply defined, micro-latency is the small amount of time that an operating system spends between recognizing that a piece of hardware requires power and delivering that power.

The Ultimate Performance plan boosts performance on systems where hardware is constantly switching between idle and active states. When you play a game, though, all of your hardware already works together to fill the scene around you. The only meaningful improvement may occur at the initial setup, and you may only see a few frames per second increase. However, if you are running video editing or 3D design software that is putting occasional heavy loads on your hardware, you might see more of an improvement.
