    It's maximum saving (or middle saving) option or I can set it to "off".

    But the thing ist that I don't find the mentioned option:
    Link State Power Management
    not at all.

    In the manual screenshot you see it directly.

    Why don't I?

    New Screenshot


    Hi,

    I turned it off, see new screenshot.

    Now the poercfg returns 3 errors.

    Error #1 = Processor at work (no problem for me)

    Error #2 = PCI Express-ASPM ist off (it's true, I configured it)

    Error #3 = PCI Express-ASPM (Active-State Power Management) is deactived (by the system) because of
    incompatiblewurde Computerhardware.



    And now?

    When i do use the command "powercfg" same as you, it does returns me exactly the same results (Error #3).

    I think the Operating System disable it in a kind of automatic mode and is a normal behavior when launching the "powercfg -energy -output %USERPROFILE%\Desktop\Energy_Report.html" command

    I have a power meter that counts tenths of Watt on my PC.
    I see no difference at all between off, moderate and maximum.
    When is it supposed to kick in when monitor goes on standby ?

    Tested on monitor standby it has 1.5 Watt consumption drop.
    Again 100% irrelevant if it's on off,moderate or maximum.
    I suggest, unless you have a laptop that may benifit somehow....or not, to put that on Off.
