XBox Gaming Bar is a helper tool for gamers to control all gaming-related settings using the gamepad/game controller. Xbox Gaming Bar is built as an Xbox Game Bar widget as the frontend, and a Win32 helper as the backend tool. As of now, there are the following functions:
- Performance Overlay using RivaTuner Statistics Server OSD.
- TDP Limit (Not available in Microsoft Store version).
- Per-game Profile.
- CPU performance adjustments.
- Enable or disable CPU Boost.
- Set CPU Energy Performance Preference (EPP).
- Set CPU clock speed limit.
- Quickly change screen refresh rate and resolution.
- Binding gamepad keys to some system functions.
- Lossless Scaling hotkey.
- Radeon Super Resolution.
- AMD Fluid Motion Frame.
- Radeon Anti-Lag.
- Radeon Boost.
- Radeon Chill.
There are 2 different versions of the application. The Microsoft Store version is much easier to install, but missing some main features, including TDP control (because it requires administrator rights, which is not allowed by Microsoft). The Sideload version needs some additional setups, but has all features.
