Just FYI there are certified Nvidia drivers floating around with malware due to the Nvidia hack. Just double check you are getting the driver's straight from Nvidia.

I was wondering why my PC was so slow doing everything but I decided to check my storage and found that I had only 83 GB left so I deleted over 130 GB of mods, downloads, and games I don't use and instantly got a faster start up and way less hiccups and small freezes in games. It's a small thing that can easily get out of hand especially if you like mods and messing around with game files like I do.

One Question So i have a windows Ten gaming laptop and i heard that windows 10 is better than windows 11 so should i still continue the download?

Why do all the experts tell people to look for things in the windows key and search when you can right click the logo and skip right to what you are looking for.. Also just as a quick note, you can open up task manager with CNTRL SHFT ESC

[Chris-dius]

But what if my GPU support ended in 2012, because it's 18 years old, and I have 0$ for my laptop, and it's running Roblox in minimum resolution and lowest graphics settings in 15 FPS? My RAM is 4 GB and my CPU is 2.20GHZ and it's upgraded to almost the max specs

3:53 this last time destroyed my Pc. Overclocking luring is same as Ayahuasca cult, Telling you if you drink it, You will feel good, but the truth is that it will destroy your consciousness and you will suffer even in after life as a aliens will torture you from nonexisting realms. I never done DMT, But I have same experience with overclocking, I overclocked my PC and later it just broke and died, it was a start button that got destroyed, and I got ayahuasca like scenario. DO OVERCLOCKING, YOU WILL INCREASE PERFORMACE, IT IS SAFE, , , , TRUTH IS MY PC GOT RUINED SO IT IS NOT ACTUALLY SAFE. So in fact, Overclocking is Scariest thing to do, cause you will ruin your PC, and ruin your fun.

I've been squeezing extra fps using DLDSR, I've reduced native resolution of my 4k display ( lg C1 ) to 1440p using cru custom resolution and used DLDSR to go 4k and picture quality is almost similar to native, can barely notice difference when in motion but got 20% more performance. Doing 60-80fps on 4k in most games with a 2080 doing this.
Waiting for a 40x series card so i can use same method and go (DLDSR) 4k 120 fps.

Chỉ cần Đức Phúc hát ballad thì dù buồn hay vui ĐP cũng truyền tải cảm xúc của bài hát rất tốt. Bài buồn thì nghe đúng kiểu tự sự, đau khổ, nghe là muốn khóc. Còn bài vui thì lại nhẹ nhàng, ấm áp, chân thành nghe là muốn yêu❤️

Well I guess I still have to get a new pc... Without the things I get around 15 fps in game such as AC Origins and with the things even on medium only around 25 fps. And the worst part is my laptop was 3x the price of good PCs like "Intel 12th Gen i7-12700 16GB 3600MHz RTX 3060 12GB." Also even though I installed the best graphics card from "May 2022" my pc has I think gotten worse and the letter font is more pixelated like in Windows 7.
