UPDATE - You will need a previous version of XTU to continue using the batch file - www.reddit.com/r/gpdwin/comments/bbxgoz/beware_of_the_new_xtu_update/ Four Easy Steps to increase performance on your Win 2. (Don't forget to join our GPD Discord) 1.) Set all power profiles to Max Performance 1a.) Powercfg.cpl / Intel GPU management / in the Battery Icon set Slider to Max Performance 2.) Download Intel XTU 3.) Download Ciphray's Batch utility (In the description field) 4.) ONLY IF YOUR SYSTEM IS OVERRIDING YOUR TDP! You can go into your bios and disable DPTF
Just a PSA: While setting a higher Watt TDP can give you better performance out of many games, instead of it being your first option, you should always look up tweaking guides for the game you are wanting to run. Often times there are settings either within the game itself or in an .ini file, or sometimes as a third-party mod that can drastically improve performance without having to mess with TDP at all.
@@Godslayxr obviously it depends but you should be able to yeah. I play the latest no mans sky on mine at default, but i did have to reduce screen resolution a bit to get good framerates
Are these still recommended things to do? Unburied my GPD Win 2 from the depths of my drawer and updated it fully, want to try and get every last bit of performance out of it.
Important bug I found: It seems when you use Windows in European Language, you have to go into the bat file and replace every dot "." with comma ",". if you don't then instead of 8.25W u will get a profile of 825W saved.
Getting this device for some serious gaming like Borderlands 3 and I saw your vid, man you deserve way more subscribers! You just got a new subscriber here.
Great video, very helpful thanks. Sometimes I notice the XTU profile changes occasionally when restarting, is there a way of guaranteeing that the profile is loading correctly every time the GPD Win 2 is switched on?
@The Phawx - On my Win 1, I got a larger Bottom Shell Housing to increase Airflow, but I am STILL noticing the Battery is starting to want to swell on me. Have you noticed any Issues on the Win 2? Hopefully will be able to get a Win 2 (hopefully before March), and just want to get a handle on any Issues there are with it before hand. Also, is there any Recovery Media out there for Users who get 128GB->512GB (or 1-2TB with the Adapters/Bottom Shell Modifications)??????
I have two doubts: 1. Is it be possible to modify the .bat so that there is a 4 watt configuration, for the games that need less, thus maximizing the use of the battery? 2. On the Intel Tuning Utility App I see that changes are made correctly, but the undervolt is still at 0, is that normal? When I did it manually I saw that it changed, but not with the .bat.
What video driver are you using? When I try remote play with the Intel 615 driver the screen is black. If I disable the Intel 615 driver remote play works, but runs really bad since it is not using the correct driver.
Do the changes we make in XTU via this batch file persist between reboots, or do we need to run this batch file after every reboot to reapply the settings?
Hi! I am watching your videos since the first GPD WIN, i really liked them all. Now I have the GPD WIN 2 and I did everything u showed here in this vid (except of that in the BIOS - I dont know how important is it). So everything is fine.. But.. I have noticed that I have smoother gameplay (more fps) if I play on Battery as if I am plugged in. Do u have any idea?! Of course Energy options by both are set to Maximum Performance! Thanks in advance
I just purchased one of these second hand CIB.. it needs a battery replacement but I am looking forward to playing around with it.. Is the data/info in this video the most up to date and best settings for this device? Thanks!
I'm looking into buying one of these to play my steam games on the go. I am not looking to play really any AAA games most indie games just on my trips and stuff. Worth it for just emulating and indie gaming?
Yes if you want it for emulating up to the Gamecube (Ps2 is hit or miss but mostly hit) then this is the device for you. Indie games run great on this thing and hell even some AAA games if your feeling spicy. The only AAA game I got on mine is Nier Automata since I got it to run a solid 30 fps :D
I made the BIOS changes of your older guide when I got my unit, like the GFX low power mode and all that stuff, I see now that you say it's not needed, should I revert the changes to default?
Got a question regarding usability: Wouldn't it be easier to navigate by using full screen start menu (tablet mode), instead of the default PC setup? Just wondering in general.
I have the updated 8100Y and I tried using the bat file and the link for older XTU but my advanced menu in XTU is blank. No information is provided for the CPU. Also my bios looks very different than the video. Does this work on the 8100Y?
Thanks, your video helped me. Now do a video about replacing the membrane for the ABXY buttons with a better one please. The buttons on mine stop springing up if I press them too rapidly which can be very frustrating during gameplay. Apparently the 1 had the same issue?
What on earth are you on about? Switch barely has any current gen content and when it does it's a downgraded port, cherck Digital Foundry's analysis of Switch ports. We're talking sub netbook resolution and low res textures, compared to PC and console versions they look awful.. It's a nice enough handheld but is no powerhouse hence why it has the worst ports which are severely downgraded. I think you need to do a bit more reading on the subject.
MechaTerryNutkins ignore him, but watching this channel, the win 2 doesn’t fair any better. Dark souls 3 unplayable, nier unplayable, Assassin’s creed origins unplayable, Hell even nino kuni can’t hold a solid 30 fps. Switch ports of triple a games don’t look as great as the other consoles, but they’re mostly stable and look decent in handheld. I own DOOM on it. I’m thinking about getting a gpd win for last gen games, but even then. I think I’ll wait for something more powerful for the price they’re asking
A lot of the games that have been ported to Switch run similarly on the Win 2, Doom can get a relatively stable 40+ fps for example whereas on Switch it dips way down. Obviously neither are going to run the more system intensive games as the hardware just isn't there, Switch isn't exactly running DS3 or Neir either..... Panic Button have done a great job porting to the Switch but the concessions are clear and choice is limited. I'll take being able to play the vast library of PC games from the last two decades over rehashed limited ports which are drip fed at $60 a time. It's unlikely there's going to be a more powerful option, especially if you don't like the price of the Win 2. SmachZ is pretty much a scam and no more portable than a laptop.
Jeeses99 No need for name calling, be an adult please. Seriously do some reading on the subject and watch Digital Foundry's videos, they do full analysis of the limited Switch library compared to the proper versions. The intro cutscene to Doom is an obvious comparison, massive downgrade to get it to run on the Tegra hardware.
Would this information be applicable to the Teclat F6 Pro? Also simple tip save it as notepad then open with notepad and save click all then add .bat that way you've got a backup always as plain text available.
Hi Mr. Phawx, I amazed at the stuff you can do on the win 2. Please can you do a tutorial on the best way how to transfer a pc game on to the win 2? Would buying a download key be the easioest? My favourite pc game is command and conquer red alert 2 yuri's revenge and I want to get a gpd win 2 Purley just to play this old classic.
Hey phawx been following you for quite sometime man love your informative posts. I do have a request i am a flightsim guy and would love to see you test xplane 11 prepar3d or ysflight on the win 2 just so i can see performance and graphics capability due to the fact games are created to take advantage of the gpu. But would love to see a post about flightsim capability and even try out microsoft flightsim 2004 Thanks again man!
Hi Phawx! Maybe You can help me, I have a later version of GPD WIN 2 (I guess it called 2019 HW) and it turns off very often by some Windows Games, and the bottom of the device is very hot. I have heard that on 12W can cause some issues, must be set to 10W or so. But how can I do this? Intel XTU is just installed but I have nothing changed until I am not sure. Any help would be appreciated!
Yes, less energy delivered to the CPU should result in less heat generated and in theory longer battery life. Forgot to add that the decrease in heat and CPU core temperature should allow for a higher average CPU frequency which will increase system performance.
Hey phawx one point of confusion here. If you run the bat as you suggest there is no way to know if your sys is overriding to 4.5. What do you suggest here to determine if you need the bios change? I presume you open Intel's application after a game to see if you got clocked back to 4.5?
I just got one of the dualshock gpd win 2s so far it is awesome but i have noticed a few issues, one it keeps having a disc write error when downloading, and it keeps telling my my drive was disconnected? Too long? But i get around that sometimes, but when im playing demanding games, sometimes it works good and sometimes it dosnt, i keep wondering if i should push the tdp up but i do NOT want to mess up my win, are there any bad side affects of pushing the tdp? As far as i know its just temps you would have to watch, but on that note i hardly feel like uping it x.x
The goal of the batchfile was a bit unclear for me. I assumed: ......................... @02:03 , in XTU you set the undervolt for "All Controls" and "Graphics" and test it (Stress Test?) This to make sure the undervolt is stable in dirx 11,12 ,.... After you have an undervolt which works for yourself (after testing): @04:49, download the batchfile modify the undervolt to your setting and use this batch file based on the game you are going to play (or what you are going to do), I assume this batchfile acts like profiles for XTU? ......................... Is the above assumption correct? And if so, what do you select in the TPD menu if your are not going to game but going to: browse, music, movies,...etc... => number '1': "Default 07.00 - 15.00 ....." ? I understood the other parts but the goal of the batch-file was unclear for me. (unless I understood it correctly: use to quickly switch "profile" based on what you are going to do...)
Also the changing of the packaged TDP by the GPD itself if (@03:44) is unclear for me. Is this the TDP you set through the batch file and then when you notice games running slower you should check the packaged TDP in XTU. If after checking packaged TDP (@03:44) is lower then what you selected from the batch file (@06:32) then you change the setting in the bios (@08:29 , DPTF?) Or did I assume wrong?
You got it all correct. Just to clarify, even if you set your tdp to 10watts, it will only go UP TO that tdp if its required. For example, sitting at the desktop will use less than 1 watt, despite setting TDP to 10watt
@Devin Tapia yea same, i also think that the 8100y is slightly higher power than the older oone im not sure but it may benefit from more watts than the old one did. im gunna get the cooling mod and go as high as i can with the watts and see if it performs better.
what i have to do to change from 7 watt to 5 watt for more batterie life? Tomb Raider 2013 brenchmark test 2H20min. with 7 watt is disapointed. maybe with 5 watt i have 1 hour more?!
Cool vid. I've had a gpd win 2 for almost 6 months now and i'm happy with it, but something's bugging me. Lately i've been having a power issue, where if i shut the unit down, the fans still wont stop spinning after the fact, so i have to do a hard power off. But then i have problems turning it on, where when i long press the power button, the screen stays dead while the fans operate as i'm holding the power button. I've been lucky some times just to get it to work so i can play. Do you have any solutions for this?
Isn't balanced graphics better than max performance? Balanced uses full power when needed, while max uses full power all the times, (even when running NES games) causing lower battery with no peformance gains over balanced.
i think there may be more switching of clockspeeds while a game runs that could cause stuttering. And the gpu clocks down idle in max performance mode too.
@@ThePhawx i have a question.. it may seem irrelevant.. which it's .. i have a small tablet rocking a core m 5y10 (not the new one 7y30) attaching it with a contactable controller and useing it for lite games and emulation.. i wonder if you can help me to get the best of it and if there any xtu batch file out there that you can help with .. thank you very much and have a nice day
When I run the batch file it says "C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Intel(R) Extreme Tuning Utility\Client\xtucli.exe"' is not recognized as an internal or external command". Im not sure what this means.
It means it isn't able to find xtucli.exe Looking in my Client folder, I can't see that .exe either. There's an XtuUiLauncher.exe though. You could try that file instead. Guessing Intel changed it since 2018.
Hey Phawx, I applied all the changes and ran the bat file, however, couldn't run Fifa 18 under those settings. It's not even playable. I put it on High-Performance mode and 10W. The fan is working its ass off and it's so loud. In the game, every movement takes 2-3 second to show on the screen. Would sombody please help?
Please try to play Dungeons & Dragons Online on this unit, you play FF XIV on it but I have seen a PC get fried playing DDO that seemed to handle FF XIV fine.... DDO is a bit old so it was most likely a coincidence, either way..... please test it!
does this do something for the emulation of the PCSX2 or Dolphin ? i get performance downs from time to time, but then again i dont really know how to get this stuff to work the best it could :) if someone could help me with the set up up that would be great.
@@ThePhawx i have a question.. it may seem irrelevant.. which it's .. i have a small tablet rocking a core m 5y10 (by the way it's the past gen cube i7 stylus . Same device as cube mix plus .

I have a solution you may or may not like .. it depend .. the is a tablet called cube mix plus . Using the same chipset as the gpd win 2 with the same specs and half the ram. 4 instead of 8 and it's passively cooled so there is no active fans or any thing so if you planed to get the most of it there is a heat sink mod you need to apply it basically a copper sheet you need to but b/w the cpu and the back alloy shell to help dispense the heat more and then you can apply the tpd mod .. and also there is a contactable controller called ipega 9083 witch will be the perfect match for the cube .. i'll send you all the details if you are interested .. oooh and i forget one thing .. all of this total wont cost you more than 350$ 😊 i'll sent you a video of my setup
Alright dude, I hate you. /s Normally I know how to tune a damn computer, but you have done it for me this time. Showed me how it's done and all that. Using your batch file stabilized my framerate in Burnout Paradise and gave BioShock more room to breathe. Processor ran a tad hotter at 74 degrees from 72, but still way within limits. Did either of your Win 2s come with one of the speakers' polarity reversed?
Make sure you are using the latest dev version of Dolphin. In Dolphin settings, make sure to use dx11 backend. Enable hybrid Uber shaders and compile before start. In hacks enable everything. On your win2 itself make sure your settings are set to Max. If you still aren't seeing perfect performance, you may need to disable dptf in bios. Which you can see in my previous bios guide
UPDATE - You will need a previous version of XTU to continue using the batch file - www.reddit.com/r/gpdwin/comments/bbxgoz/beware_of_the_new_xtu_update/

Often times there are settings either within the game itself or in an .ini file, or sometimes as a third-party mod that can drastically improve performance without having to mess with TDP at all.
So would I be able to leave my GPD Win 2 at basic settings without having to change my TDP and still play the games id like to play?
@@Godslayxr obviously it depends but you should be able to yeah. I play the latest no mans sky on mine at default, but i did have to reduce screen resolution a bit to get good framerates

Are these still recommended things to do? Unburied my GPD Win 2 from the depths of my drawer and updated it fully, want to try and get every last bit of performance out of it.
Important bug I found: It seems when you use Windows in European Language, you have to go into the bat file and replace every dot "." with comma ",". if you don't then instead of 8.25W u will get a profile of 825W saved.

You just have to use the previous version of XTU. Give me a few and I'll post a link later
I would have love to get this device to play my steam games but, that price tag though..
thank you and Ciphray ;)
what i have to do to change from 7 watt to 5 watt for more batterie life? Tomb Raider 2013 brenchmark test 2H20min. with 7 watt is disapointed. maybe with 5 watt i have 1 hour more?!
Override high dps scaling events and turn off steam overlay, set CPU core parking apply maximum timer resolution for a Much better fps
Could you tell me what you mean by maximum timer resolution?
prob not gonna respond but for me the bat file doesnt close the XTU
Don't you have to enable XTU in bios first?
Cool vid. I've had a gpd win 2 for almost 6 months now and i'm happy with it, but something's bugging me.
Lately i've been having a power issue, where if i shut the unit down, the fans still wont stop spinning after the fact, so i have to do a hard power off. But then i have problems turning it on, where when i long press the power button, the screen stays dead while the fans operate as i'm holding the power button. I've been lucky some times just to get it to work so i can play.
Do you have any solutions for this?
Yo how you download ROMs do you need zip file?
I downloaded cemu trying to played game cube
Isn't balanced graphics better than max performance? Balanced uses full power when needed, while max uses full power all the times, (even when running NES games) causing lower battery with no peformance gains over balanced.
i think there may be more switching of clockspeeds while a game runs that could cause stuttering.
And the gpu clocks down idle in max performance mode too.
The 7Y30 will regulate its power down to 3 watt in low demand applications and
@@ThePhawx i have a question.. it may seem irrelevant.. which it's .. i have a small tablet rocking a core m 5y10 (not the new one 7y30) attaching it with a contactable controller and useing it for lite games and emulation.. i wonder if you can help me to get the best of it and if there any xtu batch file out there that you can help with .. thank you very much and have a nice day
The Phawx so there is no difference in battery usage? Also what is the exact problem with balanced mode? I mean its fine for the CPU aswell
@@MaxiMuM1441 if you set TDP to 8.25w you should expect 20~ less minutes of battery runtime overall
Intel extreme tuning utility do not want to start :(
When I run the batch file it says "C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Intel(R) Extreme Tuning Utility\Client\xtucli.exe"' is not recognized as an internal or external command". Im not sure what this means.
It means it isn't able to find xtucli.exe
Looking in my Client folder, I can't see that .exe either. There's an XtuUiLauncher.exe though. You could try that file instead. Guessing Intel changed it since 2018.
Hey Phawx, I applied all the changes and ran the bat file, however, couldn't run Fifa 18 under those settings. It's not even playable. I put it on High-Performance mode and 10W. The fan is working its ass off and it's so loud. In the game, every movement takes 2-3 second to show on the screen. Would sombody please help?
M P your trying to run fifa 18 on this junk lmao lmao
I actually did finally and it runs really good.
M P how

If you need help with anything I'm always happy to help
It’s normal that the GPD WIN 2 turn off after a certain time?
Did you disable dptf?
please help me put the max tolud to 3.0 my god win bricked? have a solution?
If I buy a GPD win2 how do I setup games on it?
Is this the newer model 8100y
Please try to play Dungeons & Dragons Online on this unit, you play FF XIV on it but I have seen a PC get fried playing DDO that seemed to handle FF XIV fine.... DDO is a bit old so it was most likely a coincidence, either way..... please test it!
does this work for the gpd win too???
Hello! Can you do something like this with the GPd pocket 2?
I'm sure this video will work for gpd pocket 2
can't wait to sell my laptop for this puppy!!
Should I get the GPD Pocket 2 or GPD WIN 2 for gaming?
Win 2. It's literally built for it.
Win 2. The pocket 2 does not match the same performance than the Win 2.
this and the built in gamepad.
or the Teclast F6 Pro ;) it's the same spec just bigger and cheaper.
My boot menu is completely different. No advanced
As always thanks a lot! Any recommendations on gpu overclocking ?
Unfortunately, we are still stuck at 848mhz
So Basically I have to do the apposite of what this video says to get max battery.
Correct. :)
Undervolting should still save battery life.
does this do something for the emulation of the PCSX2 or Dolphin ? i get performance downs from time to time, but then again i dont really know how to get this stuff to work the best it could :) if someone could help me with the set up up that would be great.
I really need to make a video specifically for getting the most out of Dolphin and PCSX2. I'll put it in my queue of things to do
@@ThePhawx that would be awsome thank you
Sorry, i'm a new gpd win 2 owner and i just have a noob question: how do i access the bios settings
when booting your gpd win 2 (pressing power button to turn on) keep pressing the delete key under the backspace key until you get into the bios.
@@greentray1231 thank u so much
You can update this to 15w? The maximum option is 12w, thanks
Just add the lines yourself into the batch
Why you look like some dude from Stardew Valley on your profile pic?
Amd make soc for GPD win3.... Only u can do it better with minium price. AMD is the BOSS
Is GPD WIN 2 capable of Video Editing and Visual Studio ready?
Definitaly it even is on the win 1
UitchatZ Z I have the first one and Visual Studio is no bueno
@@thediabolicallemon3135 what are you talking about? I got visual studio 2017 installed in my win 1
UitchatZ Z Ooof do you have any space left?
Phawx please help me with my tdp issue I lost hope :(
would this also apply to the cube mix plus? Same chip.
It should, yes. Just remember the cube mix has a passive heatsink. You are better off only undervolting instead of raising TDP
@@ThePhawx i have a question.. it may seem irrelevant.. which it's .. i have a small tablet rocking a core m 5y10 (by the way it's the past gen cube i7 stylus . Same device as cube mix plus . Only it's the older cpu) (not the new one 7y30) attaching it with a contactable controller and useing it for lite games and emulation.. i wonder if you can help me to get the best of it and if there any xtu batch file out there that you can help with .. thank you very much and have a nice day
My freaking win 2 got fried...
Hey Phawx, can you hook up an eGPU to this?
You can't.
i want this thing but $700 is a lot of money. what do you recommend i do?
Wait for a sale to $650, maybe closer to $600 if you're lucky. Or wait a while longer and see how the used market looks.
your kidney. sell it. lul
The Win2 is expensive. I don't think I'm qualified to help rationalize that purchase for you. Arthran's advice is what I'd recommend.
Agreed.
I have a solution you may or may not like .. it depend .. the is a tablet called cube mix plus . Using the same chipset as the gpd win 2 with the same specs and half the ram. 4 instead of 8 and it's passively cooled so there is no active fans or any thing so if you planed to get the most of it there is a heat sink mod you need to apply it basically a copper sheet you need to but b/w the cpu and the back alloy shell to help dispense the heat more and then you can apply the tpd mod .. and also there is a contactable controller called ipega 9083 witch will be the perfect match for the cube .. i'll send you all the details if you are interested .. oooh and i forget one thing .. all of this total wont cost you more than 350$ 😊 i'll sent you a video of my setup
Anyone been able to run Half Life 1 on the GPD Win 2? Runs HL-2 fine but I really want to run HL-1.
Anybody know how to get emulator and ROMs and also do I need a zip file? Just got a gpd 2 and what to played GameCube
I do use vimm's lair for rom and emulator
Is this still the best method?
There has been a new tool created that is a GUI of sorts. I still prefer the batch file method.
Alright dude, I hate you. /s
Normally I know how to tune a damn computer, but you have done it for me this time. Showed me how it's done and all that. Using your batch file stabilized my framerate in Burnout Paradise and gave BioShock more room to breathe. Processor ran a tad hotter at 74 degrees from 72, but still way within limits.
Did either of your Win 2s come with one of the speakers' polarity reversed?
I can't get anything like the performance out of my Win 2 like you do. Super Mario Galaxy is plodding along at 33 to 48 FPS.
Make sure you are using the latest dev version of Dolphin. In Dolphin settings, make sure to use dx11 backend. Enable hybrid Uber shaders and compile before start. In hacks enable everything.
On your win2 itself make sure your settings are set to Max.
If you still aren't seeing perfect performance, you may need to disable dptf in bios. Which you can see in my previous bios guide
Does this work for Pocket 2?
Does it work on your phone ?
i have gpd win 2 and switch))))
which do you prefer?
you know, you can scroll with the arrow pad joystick even the switch in is mouse mode
Hi can you sell that to me plez name your price
I think you're stupid
Sorted it more info run anyway lol feel like a idiot ha ha
Anyone have a link to that game compat list?
Just delete system 32
Hah system 32 don't actually do it
