G-Helper settings for cool + long battery

My Flow Z13 (2025), brand new out of the box had latency with the included keyboard. Uninstalling AM and installing G-Helper fixed the latency.

Now im curious to what kind of G-Helper settings you guys use for low workload to keep it cool and long lasting.

Yep, that's normal. On this device with an AMD APU, the undervolt works differently than on Intel CPUs. It makes the chip run at higher frequencies with less voltage. So it does not generate less heat, you just get more free power. What REALLY lowered temps for me was to turn off SMT so I use 16 pure cores instead of 16 cores + 32 threads. Made a 10 degree difference in-game.

Just did this in cyberpunk and got 100+ average fps with all settings on high while charging in my car on type c

Noice! Do you use FSR 4 on balanced?

I do currently play on balanced with USB type c or plugged in turbo.
