Is your PC slow? Try these few options: *This is based on Windows OS, if you are Linux / other user it might be different 1) Adjust appearance -Press Windows, type: "Adjust the Appearance and performance of WIndows" -A long box will appear, choose performance (unticks all) 2) Analyze your PC's Task Manager -Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc -Choose Performance and see the %, if they are high means something is consuming your PC performance Fun Fact: Generally, a fast PC will have high number of these (more # means it factors heavier on performance) ####Cores - Your physical PC worker that processed everything you're seeing (and also what happens backstage) ###Logical Processors (Threads) - Your virtual pc workers, almost like Cores but not as powerful as them ####Base Speed - MINIMUM guaranteed speed of your CPU (in GHz), if its higher a bit, its normal #Sockets - physical CPUs are installed on your motherboard (usually 1) 3) Use Command Prompt (CMD) *This scans your entire PC, if system damaged it can help repair sfc /scannow *Turn off hibernation mode powercfg -h off 4) Restart your PC (Using Shut Down will not do these) -Clears RAM (memory) that’s been filled up -Stops background processes that may be stuck or leaking memory -Resets system services and drivers -Applies updates that may improve performance *This is temporary solution if your PC's slowness is caused by other factors 5) Clear up your Local Disc's Space -Best to leave at least 15GB of available space 6) Use Registry Editor (Regedit) *Make sure to create backup for your Regedit in case you messed up. These are the regedits you need to look for to boost your PC (for gaming especially online)... *If you don't have the path, then ignore HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\DriverSearching SearchOrderConfig set to 0 Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Power HyperbootEnabled set 0 Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Multimedia\SystemProfile NetworkThrottling set to ffffffff (Disables throttling completely, making Downloads / Online Gaming to be faster a bit, may cost some CPU usage) SystemResponsiveness set to 0 (Reduces background task priority, controls CPU allocation between background and foreground tasks) Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\GameConfigStore *This is for Gamebar (Windows + G), turning it off means fewer background processes GameDVR_FSEBehaviouMode set to 2 and the rest of GameDVR to 0 -GameDVR_Enabled 0 = Off, 1 = On -GameDVR_FSEBehaviorMode (Full Screen Exclusive) 0 = Default, 2 = Forces DVR-related optimizations / compatibility -GameDVR_HonorUserFSEBehaviorMode 1 = Use your chosen FSE behavior, 0 = Ignore it -GameDVR_DXGIHonorFSEWindowsCompatible (Affects how DVR interacts with DirectX fullscreen optimizations) -GameDVR_EFSEFeatureFlag (Internal flags for Enhanced Fullscreen Exclusive behavior) Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Multimedia\SystemProfile\Tasks\Games GPU Priority set 8 -Range: typically 0–31, higher value = more GPU priority for games but may be override by GPU driver Priority set 6 -Range: 1–8, it sets the CPU thread priority level for the game taskbut too high can starve background processes Scheduling Category to High -Determines how aggressively MMCSS schedules the task, usually is set to high by default SFIO Priority to High -(Superfetch I/O priority), Values: Low, Normal, High (Default: High) - What it does: Controls priority of disk I/O for the game
