Power profile resets to balanced after reboot
I've set the power profile to performance mode and after rebooting or simply turning the PC on and off, the power profile keeps going back to balanced mode, while all other settings on the same page remain as I configured. Any way to fix this?

balance is better than performance, but you can change it in
/etc/tuned/ppd.conf
Thanks but how exactly? I thought the higher the profile the better performance would be.
Performance locks your cores to their maximum speed
Which isn't what you want for a gaming workload
most games only use a few cores, and want maximum single core pseed
with some core sleeping/not maxed out, the CPU can boost higher
so performance is objectively worse for gaming in most cases on modern chips
I see. Wasn't aware of that, makes sense put that way. Thanks, appreciate it.
