![]() ![]() ![]() Nope.for Adaptive is powering the 'scene' to what the card needs, to give you the best FPS, (averaged) at the LEAST power required to do so.Īnother way to look at it.is if you have a 6 speed transmission, why keep it in fifth gear at a higher rev point, to cruise at 70, then rather drop your engine torque, by using the sixth gear to achieve the same road speed (FPS).īy using Prefer Max Power, you are keeping your card, at an elevated heat setting, for no reason.even at idle. Some are mistaken in believing that by using the Adaptive setting, you do not receive the full benefit of your gear.and that by only usng the Prefer Max Power, do you. Your card will stay in its coolest thermal state, for what is being asked of it to render This will not only conserve power, but MOST IMPORTANTLY, will keep your card from throttling down it freq's, because it is hitting, or getting close to the heat threshold limits, by where your card starts to drop its frequency output. Another feature of Adaptive that you actually want when in flight simulation, is that it will monitor the actual power needs to generate whatever is called upon on the screen.and your flight scenario. ![]() If you set your Power Setting to Adaptive, that is the one that will allow your card to use its internal power-ramp settings, and thereby, will take your card down to a cooling P8 (idle) when graphics tasks do not call for max power rendering. on the Pascal series cards, as you know, there is a Power Down State listed from P0, (the highest power and watts burned), to the idle P8, (the lowest 'idle' in watts).īecause of a quark and coding in the latest nVidia driver suites, if you set your power state in the mask, to Prefer Max Power, you will be seeing that your card does not power down to idle, (P8), and will in fact stay at P0, even at the computer desktop. ![]()
