Hi, i wanted to know tips that really make difference when applied to windows in terms of performance in daily apps and simple 3D games, because when im in vaction i have only my laptop (since my desktop stays at home), it isnt bad, a simple i3 at 1.9Ghz and a GT720M, i can run most of my main games even GTA V at 720p, 30 to 40fps all low. Are there any tips that could help me for real, i know that they cant make much improvement but at least help my pc keep more stable frame rate because im tired of watching videos and such talking about bulshit tips that only make difference if you run windows 10 on a 10yo notebook that as a pentium and 512MB of ram.

 

Thanks

 

Not really. Back in Windows 7 days I did a massive test checking what stuff being said on the web actually made a difference in games and in general, and it ended up being all myths (assuming you have a system well adequate in running the OS, and I am talking about Vista and up, not XP and bellow). All you do is mostly break your Windows experience.

 

Services are supposed to run upon an event that trigger them. So unless there is a bug where a service is being stuck doing something, you are fine. You can disable some services to get that extra <~0.5sec startup time on things you never use or care, like auto-updater of software that some software installs, and remove startup programs, but all that applies on startup speed, not actual system performance.

 

What you can do, is make sure that Game DVR functionality is not set to always record (it should not, but you never know), but that is about it.

Not really. Your best hope might be ocing the gpu with something like afterburner.

its a laptop it has temperature issues already, when playing a game like GTA V it gets like 90ºC, OC only get it worst, no GTA V on Vaction #RIP :(
