SYSTEM AND METHOD OF DYNAMICALLY THROTTLING CPU FREQUENCY FOR GAMING WORKLOADS

摘要

An example method of scaling a central processing unit (CPU) frequency of at least one CPU includes tracking an average quantity of graphics library calls made per graphics library draw call per frame of rendering. The method further includes detecting, based on tracking the average quantity of graphics library calls made per graphics library draw call per frame of rendering, a gaming workload on a computing device including a CPU. The method also includes switching the computing device to a gaming mode. Switching the computing device to a gaming mode includes reducing a CPU FMax of the CPU executing on the computing device.
