    Perfer high performance allows it to keep it from dropping below base clock. In most scenarios it won't make too much of a difference, but may if you are using VSYNC or playing older games, or have some sort of FPS cap.

    For some reason Prefer High Performance gives me stutter in games... not sure why. Adaptive feels much smoother in my opinion which is interesting.

    No matter which setting you choose, select it on a per game basis, not global settings. Global settings will not allow the GPU to idle down on desktop, where setting it on a per game basis will allow the card to idle properly.

    Excellent, I’ll give that I try. I always set everything in global settings.
