The game will slightly stuck when the G-mode is triggered #21

Hi， As you know, the option automatically enable G-mode when GPU/CPU temperature reaches critical. However,during playing many games (FF14, FF15, DevilMayCry5, etc.) ,every time the moment when the G mode is triggered, the game is always accompanied by a short obvious lag and the sound of stuck.I've tried some methods but didn't improve the situation, and it currently only seems to manually open G-mode while playing games can avoid the stuck of mode switching. The AWCC is uninstalled very clean, and there are no other performance problems during the use of the computer(5515) . And I found something interesting that only if the G-mode is triggered will the 3060 graphics card break through the 115W power limit to 120W+，so the contradiction between temperature, fan speed, and graphics card power is a better laugh...

Hi! Ah, yes, I can confirm that there're sometimes short freezes when switching G-mode on/off. My guess is that it has something to do with the change in the configuration of the actual GPU. In any case, it's out of our control, unfortunately.

When gaming it is best to disable the "fail-safe" feature in the app.

Hi. G-mode actually affect the config about both CPU and GPU,even the adapter. As I know on 5520 The Prochot Temperature is raised at 100 C at G-mode,93 when G-mode disabled. The G-mode behaviour may be written in BIOS which TCC even AWCC can't affect with.

So may the CPU/GPU behaviour&config change could cause program rely on GPU unstable. That's the probably reason why you feel a little stuck.

Shall enter G-mode before entering the app. for better stability.
