What are the advantages of power optimization management?
Optimization of power management can maintain stable operation of the computer, reduce power consumption of various components of the device, save power consumption, extend battery of equipment and The service life of the components enables the equipment to maintain stable, low-energy, high-performance operation for a long time. Because of the previous Windows system, the power control provided by the desktop is less, so the user can only manage the computer power extremely limited. Nowadays, the Windows 8.1 system is designed for notebooks, which optimizes the control functions of the battery and the power supply, so that the user can A more detailed, detailed, and comprehensive approach to managing computer power, reducing the energy consumption of various components of the device from the ground and extending the life of the hardware.
Win8.1 has four power management modes
Through Win8.1“Control Panel”, enter "Power Options", we see four types of power modes.
1. Balanced
In the balance mode, the CPU dynamically adjusts the main frequency according to the requirements of the current program, so that the CPU consumes less power in the relatively idle operation state, which is very important for the notebook. In this mode, when the computer is active, it provides all the hardware performance. When it is not active, it automatically enters the power saving state. It is a dynamic adjustment of the device power consumption, heat dissipation, and power consumption according to the current situation. Power mode, suitable for most people. (Tips: Please refer to the specific professional documents for the usage rate of each component.)
2. Energy Saving
This mode will limit the CPU to work at the lowest multiplier, and other devices will also maintain the lowest power consumption, although there is minimal heat dissipation. Quantity and power consumption, but the price paid is not small —— all parts of the computer can only run at the lowest performance state.
3. High-performance
As the name implies, all the components of the computer in this mode are running at the highest performance. One device has the highest power consumption, power consumption and heat dissipation, but it is also the power mode with the strongest performance. .
Balance, energy saving, high performance three power modes
4. Customize
In this mode, users can flexibly configure the first three modes according to their needs, and select, add, and set the system. A variety of hardware detail control functions are provided to create a highly personalized power management mode.
It is also consumed all the time. Can't use this time, through a power management function, after the computer is idle for a certain period of time, it can automatically turn off the display. In the long run, it will not save a lot of power, reduce the power consumption of the device, and extend the computer. The life of the component?
Balance mode setting
We go through the Win8.1 "Control Panel", enter "Power Options", select "Change Plan Settings", open “ Balance & rdquo; Detailed setting interface of the power mode.
In this interface, if it is a notebook, it is necessary to set the time limit for automatically reducing the brightness of the display, the time limit for turning off the display, and the time limit for the computer to go to sleep in the battery and power states; and the desktop only needs to adjust the display. Turn off and enter the sleep time limit setting.
We tried to set a power management mode —— for example, set the computer to automatically turn off the display when the computer is idle for 10 minutes, and let the computer go to sleep when the idle time reaches 30 minutes. With such a power management scheme, the computer can effectively get a rest, and in the long run, the power consumption and power consumption of the device can be greatly reduced. Other power mode management settings are also deduced by analogy.

Energy saving mode setting
In the energy saving mode, as long as the computer is idle for 5 minutes, Windows automatically turns off the display, idle for 15 minutes, and the whole system enters a sleep low power state.

High Performance Mode Setting
In high performance mode, the computer is idle for 15 minutes before turning off the display, never going to sleep state. At this time, power consumption and power consumption are large, but The advantage is that the computer will remain in the highest performance operating state for a long time.

Adjust PC hardware through advanced power settings
If you need to comprehensively and meticulously manage the power mode of each component, you can change the plan settings above. Go to “Change Advanced Power Settings” to optimize the working methods of each component through the more advanced options of power management, effectively reducing the power consumption of the computer.
For example, you can set the way to return to the desktop after waking up the computer in balanced power mode. For example, after the computer is woken up, the system automatically switches to the locked login interface, and the user needs to pass the password verification to return to the desktop security mode.
This feature is very important —— wireless adapter settings, if you just go out and use the laptop to send mail, look at the message, you can adjust the wireless adapter to "medium", "low energy" level, so that It can reduce power consumption, improve notebook life and extend battery life.

Power button (body physical button) plays a key role in switching power supply. Using Win8.1 power management function, you can define the function of power button in detail, such as selection. What is the effect of pressing the power button? You can set the four functions of sleep, sleep, and shutdown after the button is pressed, and configure the power supply reasonably.

No matter what kind of mobile device, the display is in the various parts of the "large power consumption", so the fine adjustment of the display function, is a power-saving shutdown, expand & ldquo; display & rdquo The catalogue allows the computer to intelligently save power by setting the time limit for turning off the monitor after the computer is idle, and enabling and disabling the monitor's adaptive brightness. It can automatically turn down the screen brightness or even turn off the monitor when idle.

After experiencing the Win8.1 power management function, does the user have a new understanding of the importance of power management? Yes, a powerful power management function can not only save power, Extend the battery life, and also effectively adjust the working energy consumption of various components of the equipment, and effectively promote the stable, low-cost and high-efficiency working state of computers, tablets, mobile phones and other equipment for a long time.
