Common sense would dictate that the Asus 'Balanced' option would change the Windows power plan to 'Balanced', but this is not the case - the Windows power plan inexplicably becomes 'High Performance' instead.Īsus' last power plan, 'Windows', is supposed to "apply Windows OS power setting" according to the official Armoury Crate manual here. Asus' 'Silent' option will change the Windows power plan to 'Power Saver' while 'Turbo' will change Windows to 'High Performance'. The confusion becomes worse with how the Asus power plans relate to the Windows power plans. Thus, it's possible to have the Windows power plan on 'Power Saver' and yet have Armoury Crate set to 'Turbo'. Changing the power plan through Armoury Crate will automatically change the Windows Power Options setting, but the opposite is not true. Overclockable PCs may have a fifth option called 'Manual'. Armoury Crate includes four: 'Silent', 'Balanced', 'Turbo', and 'Windows'. The Windows Power Options menu often includes three preset power plans: 'Power Saver', 'Balanced', and 'High Performance'.
Armoury Crate, however, is perhaps the most confusing. Alienware Command Center, MSI Dragon Center, Clevo Control Center, and Asus Armoury Crate are just a few examples of such programs. Gaming PCs typically come with special pre-installed applications that can control the power plan of the system on top of the usual Windows Power Options menu.
