Speed FPS on battery for Laptop
#1
Hello, I am using PCSX2 in Laptop. Here's the specification:

i7 6700HQ
NVIDIA GTX 950m GDDR5
RAM 8 GB DDR4

As we can see, playing games in this laptop results all in smooth. When I play with Laptop while charging, during frame limiter set to TURBO, the FPS can go up to 200% (Default settings) results in 120 FPS. However, here's the problem, 

While the laptop is not charging, no matter what settings framelimiter I change, whether it is max or turbo, It won't go over 100%. It just stay as if it is normal 100% despite being smooth. I actually want more speed since some games have long cut-scene and I constantly play on battery. (Currently, playing Suikoden 5).

Does anybody know what's the cause and how to fix it? Thank you in advance.

FYI, all settings are default. I don't touch it unless necessary.

nothing wrong here.
I'm pretty sure you have a problem with your windows power plan, though.
can you share your advanced power plan settings ?

Sure sure. To be honest, I use Balanced all the time and it is default. I'm pretty sure I didn't mess everything up.

P.S: Sorry, I replied too long. I was busy.

means you didn't switch to high performance when I advised to do so ?
did you try monitoring your temps too ?

Sir, I tried it with High performance too. It doesn't work thats why I switched back to balance. Temps are fine though.
