POLL - Performance / gaming mode should change CPU governor to performance #26

Open rnd-ash opened 4 years ago

OK guys, need an opinion here,

should I make it so that when triggering gaming mode / creator mode, the CPU governor is switched automatically to performance, and then back to default when power mode is switched back to normal?

I have noticed myself that the CPU performance increases by another 30% if i make the switch to performance governor with performance mode enabled (Really helps with gaming!)

I would rather prefer an integration into ferals gamemode daemon (which already sets the cpu governeur among other things). Razers TDP curve system is part of a whole picture and no performance supervisor controlling other things in my opinion.

But those are just my two cents, overall I am really happy with this module. It helps a lot with Half Life: Alyx. Many thanks. :)

por que no los dos... Can you invent some custom modes, such that the user can choose

gaming mode
gaming mode + performance governor
automatic switch to gaming mode if cpu runs at full blast for more than a user configurable number of seconds
automatic switch to gaming mode + performance governor if cpu runs at full blast for more than a user configurable number of seconds

... or something along these lines.

That's seems like a lot to do, I can try to create some configurable action on activation of gaming mode instead
