Recently, Intel launched a new APO (Application Performance Optimization) game performance adjustment function, which can greatly improve game performance. Although there are currently very few supported games, the improvement is still impressive. If there are more games in the future, players will be able to Enjoy better performance for free. But there is bad news here. Intel has confirmed that this new feature will not be devolved to the 12th and 13th generation CPU processors, which means that it can only be enjoyed by the 14th generation and later. Although it has the same architecture as the 14th generation CPU, Intel’s latest APO game performance improvement function definitely does not support the 12th and 13th generations. Recently, the foreign YouTube channel HardwareUnboxed tested the latest Intel Application Performance Optimization function, starting from “Metro Exodus”. It can be seen from the measured data of this game that when APO is turned on, the average FPS and less than 1% FPS have increased, and the amplitude is quite large: However, “Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six® Siege” (Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six® Siege) Only 1080p is noticeable, 1440p and 4K are fine. The processors used in this test are all i9-14900K: Careful observation of the clock changes of E-core can be found that when APO is turned on, the clock speed of E-core becomes higher, so it seems that the main reason is to optimize E-core. -Core method to improve game performance: You only need to turn on the optimization function of the software to get additional game performance, which is quite good: The architecture of Intel’s 14th generation Raptor Lake Refresh processor is the same as that of the 13th generation, and Compared with the 12th generation, the Gracemotn E-core architecture is the same, and the P-core is different. If the E-core is simply optimized, then this new APO function should logically be available to 13th and 12th generation players. Just use it. Unfortunately, HardwareUnboxed has confirmed with Intel that APO has no plans to promote it to the previous generation of products, so it is currently exclusive to Intel’s 14th generation processors. It is worth noting that Intel APO seems to only be available for some 14th generation SKUs, such as the upcoming non-K series processors that may not be available: So, if you want to use the latest features, you still have to upgrade to the latest 14th generation SKUs. Only the next generation can enjoy it, and pay attention to the model. The currently supported models are confirmed.
