    If optimized battery charging is set and caps the battery at around 80%, it’s generally aiming to preserve long-term battery health. While gaming—especially with heavy titles like PUBG—you’ll likely still be hooked up to the charger rather than relying on battery. Everything should work fine.

    But, some power-hungry games might pull more energy than the charger alone can supply, causing your system to dip into that 80% reserve and even possibly throttle performance or show battery depletion notifications. Generally, though, it shouldn’t stop you from playing—just maybe not at maximum settings or without your charger working hard.

    Yes, you can play heavy games like PUBG while “optimized battery charging” is on and the battery stays capped at 80%. It simply limits the charge to protect battery health, and your laptop will draw power directly from the charger during play.

    Yes, you can play heavy games like PUBG while using optimized battery charging that caps your battery at 80%. This feature is designed to protect battery health and doesn’t affect system performance when plugged in. For the best gaming experience, keep your laptop connected to power, use high performance mode, and monitor system temperatures. The battery cap won’t limit your CPU or GPU, so gameplay remains smooth as long as you're not relying solely on battery power.
