Framework 12 Platform Tuning For Better Performance Or Power Efficiency
In multi-threaded CPU workloads the performance mode can provide a nice boost to Raptor Lake's capabilities as well but with significant power increases. Or if you care about using a Framework Laptop 12 all day, the power saver mode can help in enhancing overall power efficiency.
The performance mode can make the Framework Laptop 12 more practical for creators with heavy workloads.
👁 FFmpeg benchmark with settings of Encoder: libx265, Scenario: Upload. Performance was the fastest.
At the end of the day though you are still constrained by Raptor Lake and the Core i5 1334U simply having two P cores and eight E cores. Creators and other power users with heavy workloads would be better off with the Framework 13 with AMD Strix Point or other laptop options with more meaningful out-of-the-box performance.
