What\u2019s more, you also need to factor in the resolution of your monitor. The higher the resolution is, the more strain you are putting on your GPU, increasing your power consumption.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Built-in Tools <\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Windows, you can adjust your PC\u2019s power plan. Here you can customise when your system turns off after an extended period of inactivity, along with selecting between two different power plans \u2013 Balanced or Best.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Balanced is perfect for those who are planning on using their PC for work, simple web browsing, or watching content online. Alternatively, Best is suited for gamers who want to get the best possible performance out of their PC.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"577\" src=\"https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/PowerPlan-screenshot-1024x577.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-39684\"\/ loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/PowerPlan-screenshot-1024x577.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/PowerPlan-screenshot-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/PowerPlan-screenshot-768x433.png 768w, https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/PowerPlan-screenshot.png 1122w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Screenshot taken in Windows 11<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If none of these power plans suit your needs, then you can also opt for the \u2018Power Saver\u2019 mode. This will reduce consumption and save energy by limiting the performance of your PC where possible, such as when idle.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to this, depending on the game you are playing, you can also implement FPS limiters.

class=\"wp-block-heading has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-2\">Energy Efficient\u00a0Gaming\u00a0FAQ!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-3\">Which Power\u00a0Supply Unit (PSU) is best for saving energy?\u00a0<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-4 wp-block-paragraph\">When choosing a PSU, you should opt for one with an 80 PLUS or similar rating, ideally Gold, Platinum, or Titanium. These\u00a0PSUs are very\u00a0efficient\u00a0at converting\u00a0AC electricity from your wall outlet\u00a0into usable DC power, meaning less energy is wasted as heat.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-5\">Do\u00a0gaming laptops use less power than desktops?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-6 wp-block-paragraph\">Mobile hardware is\u00a0designed for high\u00a0efficiency, and so will use much less power\u00a0than\u00a0a desktop. However, laptops offer limited upgradeability, so you\u00a0will end up\u00a0trading\u00a0long-term modularity for immediate energy savings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-7\">Does\u00a0RGB lighting affect energy consumption?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-8 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"border-top-left-radius:81px;border-top-right-radius:81px;border-bottom-left-radius:81px;border-bottom-right-radius:81px\">While individual LED lights consume\u00a0very little\u00a0power, they soon add up. Furthermore,\u00a0they\u00a0do\u00a0generate excess heat. This can slightly increase the\u00a0heat your cooling system will need to manage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-9\">How\u00a0do I limit power usage without sacrificing visual quality?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-10 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"border-top-left-radius:81px;border-top-right-radius:81px;border-bottom-left-radius:81px;border-bottom-right-radius:81px\">Enable in-game frame rate\u00a0limiters or\u00a0use software like Radeon Chill or NVIDIA\u00a0WhisperMode\u00a0to\u00a0align your\u00a0GPU output\u00a0to your monitor&#8217;s refresh rate. Also\u00a0ensure\u00a0that your\u00a0Windows\u00a0power settings\u00a0are set to Balanced rather than High Performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-11\">What\u00a0is\u00a0\u2018undervolting\u2019\u00a0and how does it help?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-12 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"border-top-left-radius:81px;border-top-right-radius:81px;border-bottom-left-radius:81px;border-bottom-right-radius:81px\">Undervolting reduces the voltage supplied to your CPU or GPU without lowering its clock speeds.\u00a0This\u00a0minimises\u00a0power draw and heat generation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-13\">Do\u00a0energy-saving modes on consoles work?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-14 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"border-top-left-radius:81px;border-top-right-radius:81px;border-bottom-left-radius:81px;border-bottom-right-radius:81px\">Most consoles, like the PS5 or Xbox Series X, feature energy-saving modes. Switching them\u00a0can\u00a0significantly\u00a0reduce\u00a0standby power drain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-15\">Should I unplug my console or PC when not in use?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-16 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"border-top-left-radius:81px;border-top-right-radius:81px;border-bottom-left-radius:81px;border-bottom-right-radius:81px\">For maximum energy efficiency, yes.\u00a0Devices left in standby mode draw\u00a0what\u2019s\u00a0known as\u00a0\u2018vampire\u2019\u00a0power, meaning they drain power even when not in use. Using a smart plug, though,\u00a0can completely cut\u00a0off this\u00a0power safely and conveniently.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Share Your Energy Efficient Gaming Tips<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do you have any helpful tips on how to make your gaming PC more efficient?
