Out of the box, this can cause lots of display lag, stuttering, and enormous refresh rate drops. + +This configuration disables PSR by adding `i915.enable_psr=0` to the kernel boot parameters, at the cost of some battery life. If you want to turn PSR back on, add `i915.enable_psr=1` to your `boot.kernelParams`.
