It will be in Alienware command centre probably

I have an older model but I have a button on my F6 I think it is, that switches modes

It’s always in performance mode . No optimus on Alienware

delete the app use the built in performance slider present in the taskbar.

Personally, performance mode is always on.

yeah, it's not going to hurt it, just because it's in that mode doesn't mean you are pushing the hardware to its limits a 100% of the time. it's no different than any other mode. the only thing it enables your computer to do, is when you are gaming, and need that extra wattage or power, or MHz, your computer will allow it to use or consume it. whereas in other modes it will cap the wattage/power draw to the components so that it doesn't heat up, draw extra power i.e. battery life, to last longer on battery. its

You will use more energy. That's it. I did have a mac laptop that desoldered its GPU from heat, but I think these LOQs have over-engineered cooling systems from the Legion series and can handle it without sweat. Cap your FPS if you wanna lower temps a bit.

Nothing. But save it for gpu or cpu intensive tasks.

If you want more fps and wanna squeeze out the power out of your laptop means use performance and it will harm your laptop.I use my laptop always at performance mode and rn its in performance mode as well as I always game

What does performance mode even do?

Try putting this in the terminal

echo performance | sudo tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor

Your laptop might not have that as an option.

Did you upgrade to 22.1? You have to do that.

I think hardware acceleration needs to be supported in order for the performance mode to be enabled, not all open source drivers and/or desktop environments do that correctly, especially without any additional tweaks.

I used some thin cardboard to conceal the RAM value for the Llano Laptop Cooler like this, screw that blue light especially at night. A similar approach might be your best bet.

I don’t notice that much difference between the 2 modes

Enable legion AI and There won't be much difference between performance mode and balanced mode.

We definitely need control over that light. I don't mind the color, but I really wish we could turn it off because it's too bright at night.

Wait is your turbo boost enabled or you say it’s not.

Quickest way probably throttlestop to enable it if it’s missing from bios.

Then if that overheats your laptop you can set mhz In the frequency settings which you can unlock using the following.

I hope this helps you. The registry key is: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\PowerSettings\54533251-82be-4824-96c1-47b60b740d00\75b0ae3f-bce0-45a7-8c89-c9611c25e100

Change attribute from 1 to 2 to unhide the maximum processor frequency setting in power options.

It would help to know what hardware you're using

It isn't needed for anything anyway, but I don't know if you can enable it with modern standby or not, it's possible only balanced is available. But if you click on the battery, and move the slider to the right it is basically the same thing.
