Xsede is a background, low-resource utility to apply and enforce Intel Extreme Tuning Utility (XTU) settings.
Often times, manufacturers will hard set package TDP dissapation, which can and do override the settings applied by XTU. This is particlarly prominent within laptops. Speaking from experience, my Lenovo X1 Carbon faces severe throttling, and actively works against XTU modifications. Xsede utilizes a smart algorithm to detect when the internal Embedded Controller reverts the values, and also reapplies the XTU settings.
However, Xsede also has uses outside of buildin strict OEM TDP rules. Xsede brings reliability, customizability, and ease of use that a simple task scheduler cannot bring.
- Automatic backend XTU launching
- Customizable XTU settings (profile support planned)
- Battery mode and AC autodetection and profiles for optimizing battery life and performance
- Override OEM TDP limits
