I appreciate that you stop after every step to explain WHY you make changes. Not only does it help me understand what I'm doing, it gives me extra time to complete the task so I don't have to constantly pause the video to catch up. Great video, very helpful. Thank you!

wow these steps really helped my fps count was playing a plagues tale the first one yesterday and my frame rate kept dipping below 60fps now with all your settings tweaks i'm getting 70-90fps well chuffed thanks dude

great video, and great that you explained what a lot of the features do. too many just blindly follow along to these types of videos and can end up breaking their OS, so its nice when an explanation comes with the tweak :)

your videos are very helpful but timestamps would be just perfect for people to find the exact part they need and its good for SEO google searches if named properly

As a computer illiterate, I really appreciate you taking the time to do a step by step tutorial instead of speeding through like some YouTubers. Thanks much.

I did most of these things and not only did I gain about 15-20 fps but dropped my cpu usage from 50-60 to in the 20's & 30's. Thank you!!

I thought I'd done all of this type of stuff already, the first five minutes was all things I hadn't done and I really needed to do. Thanks.

Thank you for your content. Im 34 years old, and I just bought my first PC since being a kid, and you have helped me so much. I got an i7 13700k with a rtx 4090, so you can see that for me. It's a steep learning curve, but you've definitely been a big help. Thanks

appreciate the video. thank you for going slow and explaining all the steps. a lot of videos out there just fly though things and you have no idea the why or what you are disabling ect. . so thank you for a great video. liked and subbed

Yea, I would like to see a video about game mode and if it actually does anything to help games run better.

Playing FIFA 23 on pc and i started realizing glitches and bugs but after turning off "Game Mode" everything became stable once again

FPS Gamers should also Disable Enhance pointer precision. Windows by default turns that on.

This is gold. Another setting that I heard improves performance is Setings->Privacy& Security -> Device encryption -> Device encryption to OFF.

First, look into Windows server, ltsc, tiny10 or atlas OS.

If youre not up to a reinstall, look into a setting in edge. Under "system and performance", turn off "startup boost" and "Continue running background extensions and apps when Microsoft Edge is closed". This has been on by default whenever I install windows and seems to be the reason you'll notice 3 edge services always running when youve literally never opened edge in your life.

Great video, half this stuff I've never tried before, I'll definitely try some of it

[DuckyOnQuack.]

I. Recommend keeping game mode on regardless when you open a game other apps look for this toggle so they can slow down to offer more resources for your game.

Accolades! I was having a bad experience with RDR2 running like thick molasses :-) I mean, watching paint dry very slowly from the time the game launched to inside setting. Your recommendations fixed this!
