Intel To The Rescue
Team blue responded to these issues and have proposed a solution. Now, bear in mind this solution is not driver-enabled so users will have to manually change their settings. After tinkering with the BIOS, a few optimizations are required for the Windows Power Plan; ~Intel
The Culprit
Intel states that ASPM (Active-state power management) is a power management utility that allows PCIe devices i.e GPUs to save power when not being utilized. Under this system, we have 2 low power modes namely; ~Intel
L0sL1
Basically, the Arc A GPUs require these low power modes to be forced via the software. It is not clear why Intel is not opting for a direct driver level implementation. In addition, Intel did mention that displays having refresh rates higher than 60Hz require higher boost clocks resulting in additional power draw. This means that based on the screen resolution and refresh rate, your mileage may vary.
