Zenless Zone Zero — Windows power plan actually changed my frame times

Curious how everyone else approaches this, because my way feels clumsy. Everything I read suggests it should just work, and for me it very much does not.

The thing that keeps tripping me up is that everyone assumes you already know the basics, and the wiki is out of date. I can post logs or screenshots if that would make this easier to diagnose.

Quick correction to the above: the trick is to change one thing at a time and actually note the result before touching anything else.

In my testing, give it a clean reinstall before assuming the hardware is at fault.

Slightly different take — ignore the loudest advice; the boring answer is usually the correct one here.

Depends on your setup, but broadly give it a clean reinstall before assuming the hardware is at fault.

Only partly related, but that behaviour is intentional, even though it is poorly explained in-game.

From experience, the difference is real but small enough that you may not notice it while playing.

Only partly related, but the defaults are conservative on purpose, so there is usually headroom to gain.

In my testing, the wiki number is theoretical; real results are always a bit lower.
