• When you enable Configured Max CPU Power for advanced energy saving condition, the CPU frequency may display 800 MHz in the Windows® OS information of your computer. However, the true CPU frequency varies depending on the wattage that you manually set. You can adjust the CPU wattage from the lowest base to your preferred default value.

Configured Max CPU Power may decrease the total power delivery to the CPU and affects the CPU performance under system heavy load. To restore your system to its default settings, reboot your computer.
