Systems and methods for adjusting frame rate of graphics intensive applications based on priority to improve information handling system performance

Abstract

Systems and methods are provided that may be implemented on an information handling system to improve the performance of currently-executing target application/s by dynamically adjusting or changing the graphics frame rate (frames per second 'FPS') of other concurrently-executing application/s that are utilizing graphics resources. The disclosed systems and methods may be implemented to use resource sharing (e.g., central processing unit (CPU)/graphics processing unit (GPU) power sharing) in the system to provide more system resources to the system and the target application/s. The disclosed systems and methods may be so implemented to understand which application/s are currently running in the foreground or are predicted to be used and interacted with by the user, and to understand which remaining currently-executing background application/s are graphics intensive.
