August 10, 20214 yr Microsoft has published several new cumulative updates (KB5005033 & KB5005031) for recent versions of Windows 10 today. I could confirm ( at least on my setup) with Game Mode ON i had 6 to 8 fps increase on MSFS 'We fixed an issue that prevents power plans and Game Mode from working as expected. This results in lower frame rates and reduced performance while'' https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/microsoft/windows-10-kb5005033-and-kb5005031-cumulative-updates-released/ At last Game Mode started to work on windows Intel Core i9-13900K | ASUS ROG STRIX GeForce RTX 4090 GAMING OC 24GB | ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z790 HERO | DDR5 64GB 6000-30 Trident Z5 RGB | Corsair ICUE H170i Elite Capellix RGB | Corsair 7000D Airflow ASUS ROG Thor Platinum II 1200 Watt | Samsung SSD 990 Pro NVMe M.2 2TB & 1TB | Alienware AW3423DW | Asus ROG Swift PG279Q 27" Gaming Monitor | VKB-Sim Gladiator Mk.II | Thrustmaster TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition
August 10, 20214 yr What are the benefits of having Windows Game Mode on? Mine has been off. Will I get better performance now with it enabled?

August 11, 20214 yr I don't use any power plans, so Game mode stays off on my PC, and I hate Windows updates, they almost never work without download and installation problems.

August 11, 20214 yr Also curious to what the true benefit of Game Mode will he to the sim. My desktop power plan is set to max performance 100% of the time. Not great for global warming but it is pretty much only a MSFS PC.

August 11, 20214 yr I might be crazy but I think this may have actually helped. I had to manually install update 211H, it was listed as optional. No way to go back to test if it really did help though.
August 11, 20214 yr I always had Game Mode ON but I also noticed I have 4 or 5 FPS more today compared to yesterday, and the only thing I installed was the Windows update. So, it's possible that what they fixed helped a bit.

August 11, 20214 yr This is pretty big news, I'm going to take all the fps I can get. Thanks for the heads up. http://youtube.com/c/Greazer
August 11, 20214 yr Well should make no difference for those of us who have always used maximum performance in our plans anyways.

August 11, 20214 yr Do you guys know there's Ultimate Performance power plan? It also fixes clock issues with "lots-of-cores" CPUs on some systems

It also fixes clock issues with "lots-of-cores" CPUs on some systems I have an AMD 5800x and I saw that the Balanced plan was recommended. However I wonder if Ultimate could actually make a difference. http://youtube.com/c/Greazer
