boost mode

Enhanced performance setting

Boost mode is a state of heightened performance or accelerated operation, typically in electronics or gaming.

A device in boost mode temporarily exceeds its standard output—a laptop processor running faster under heavy load, or a video game character gaining enhanced speed or power: Hit the button to activate boost mode.

The term suggests pushing past normal limits for short bursts.
