de4dcert 246 Posted March 24, 2014 I had a lot of people asking me what exactly this does so I will try to put it forward. Your card is set by default to save power in different default profiles for different games. This is a great technology for keeping power demands and performance in check overall. However I noticed back in the Arma 2 days that only 60% of my card was being used in a lot of situations. This was the same for the DayZ Standalone and Arma 3. Its something to do with the current Nvidia/Arma profiles in the drivers. But whatever the case for me it seems to run my graphics card at a lower mhz clock than it can run max. I had all this up on my second screen as I played. By using this max setting the card enables all the power when the card is under load instead of clocking down to just about enough and thus my card is properly maxed out. For me with an Nvidia 670 winforce x3 it meant the difference between 45fps with all details maxed out apart from 2x AA @ 1080p and 50-60fps @1080p. Please be aware that the more people that join an Arma based server the more FPS drop a client seems to suffer regardless. The best test of all is to run a local server on your computer "start a multiplayer game" or "single player". DayZ and Arma 3 both have had a couple of kick ass updates significantly increasing rendering performance over the last month or 2 with better usage of multicore cpu's so the experience overall is better.
