⭐ [UPDATE] Framework Hub 1.2-EXPERIMENTAL January 2024
🕑 Added 2025-01-17 14:45:07 +0000 UTC > 💝 Hey everyone! I'm excited to announce that I'll be releasing version 1.2 later today!
Please note that this is a very experimental pre-release version. While there are still many things that need to be fixed and optimized, I wanted to share these improvements early with my amazing supporters who have been helping me financially through this journey.
Your support means the world to me, and this early access is my way of saying thank you!
As always, your feedback is invaluable in making Framework Hub better for everyone.
Let's work together to make it even better! 🚀
[AIO Installer will be in a different post for paid members]
### ⚡ Advanced Intel Core Ultra CPU Management

## 🔄 Changes from v1.1
Core Architecture: Complete rewrite of power management system
Hardware Support: Extended CPU and GPU compatibility
Power Management: Sophisticated power plan system
User Interface: Modernized and streamlined design
Stability: Robust error handling and recovery
Performance: Optimized resource usage
## 🎮 Usage
1. Install .NET 8.0 Desktop Runtime if not already installed
2. Launch Framework Hub
3. Select your preferred power profile
4. Changes are applied immediately
5. Go in the settings to customize your profiles:
- Adjust power limits
- Configure boost behavior
- Fine-tune performance parameters
- Set display preferences
## 💡 Important Notes
- PL2, Turbo Time, and Temperature limits are locked by firmware on Core Ultra processors
- Application requires administrator rights for hardware access
- Feature availability depends on CPU model and hardware configuration
- Power plans can be reset using "powercfg /restoredefaultschemes" in admin CMD
- Settings are automatically recreated if deleted
- Regular backups of custom profiles recommended
## 🔜 Planned Improvements
- Alternative PL2 control methods investigation
- Enhanced AMD optimization
- Extended hardware support
- Advanced profile customization
- Community-driven feature additions
##🐛Known issues
iGPU monitoring might be buggy for Intel CPU
Settings button might take some time to load since there is a lot of verifications
Too low or too high values for PL1 on Intel CPU might cause blue screens ( a reboot will reverse any incorrect values so don't worry )
Time estimation of battery remaining go crazy sometimes

feeling a little stupid, but where do I get the installation details?

On the FW16 AMD 7940, every time the program starts, both after just quitting it or restarting the laptop, the power plan defaults to 'Boost', even though i have set the startup plan to Eco in settings - and the chooser buttons are not responding, it also keeps highlighting the 'Boost' plan despite repeated clicks on the other buttons. Am I the only one experiencing this? (And where should we post bugs etc, just as comments to these posts or?)

Thanks for all your hard work! Looking forward to tinkering with the latest release
