TL;DR: Games may look at the efficiency cores of new hybrid Intel CPUs and determine the CPU is too slow to run the game. Intel fix: If enabled in the firmware, you can disable those cores (leaving only the beefy ones) by pushing scroll lock.

(Disclaimer: No fact checking was performed on my end).

>Better still, you won't need any new hardware, because it's repurposing something you already have but never use: your Scroll Lock key.

But I do use it. It's a great key for toggling screen recording, because it's right next to Print Screen and makes logical sense in terms of positioning. It also doesn't do anything useful, or didn't.

Obviously it's not a real problem, but you can't really assume people don't work buttons into their workflow that aren't normally used.

In Final Fantasy XIV, Scroll Lock is the default key for hiding the UI, which is what I like to do when taking screenshots of my character.
