Should I enable setting hpet or not for perfomance in Windows 8.1 ? TWEAK: Enable HPET (in BIOS and OS) for better performance and FPS - OS Customization, Tips and Tweaks - Neowin Forums and TWEAK: Enable HPET (in BIOS and OS) for better performance and FPS - OS Customization, Tips and Tweaks - Neowin Forums
Is this right or wrong? Last I read, disabling HPET in the BIOS actually improved gaming by reducing lag and micro stutter
Affects hpet benchmarks? What is best enabled or disabled ?
It is not possible to enable HPET in BIOS A14 in the Alienware 17, but it is in Windows.
The higher the QueryPerformanceFrequency is the better is performance. You only get high frequency with HPET. The other timers will give you significantly less frequency. Also note that if your ratio is not 1.0000 you are off set (or you have wrongly OC'ed), enable HPET and you should be without sync problems.
