Hi,
Your stream lags, drops frames? Your game often runs slow? Are your FPS slow ? Is your internet optimized? Are your drivers updated? Is your girlfriend hot ? ops: I'm gonna tackle all these questions, and provide tweaks for all these problems.
These tweaks are meant to help save up ram, and give your CPU less tasks; consequently your in-game/streaming experience becomes much smoother, and safely playable.
Why would i care about my CPU?
Do you know that higher CPU temperature is damaging, and makes your computer lags over time? High CPU temperature is because of:
- (1) Overloading CPU with many tasks
(2) Clogged fan & heat sink
(3) Improper thermal paste between heatsink and CPU
(4) Defective fan/heat sink assembly
In This Guide, I will only focus on "(1) Overloading CPU with many tasks"; 2,3 and 4 are technical and they are sometimes out of your control. So let's get started: :ugeek:
Every Streaming program has a Frame Rate. But is that Frame Rate set to suit all computers? The answer is no! The higher your frame Rate is, The higher your chances to drop frames and lag as well.
By default you must have 30 or 60 FPS. I recommend 20 or 25 FPS. You can test both to find out which of which suits you. Remember! 25 < 30 <==> the difference is 5 which is 20% reduction. This reduction is very huge.

3.ReadyBoost (Only Computers with less than 2GB ram)
*Skip this if you have more than 2Gb ram, because you probably won't benefit as much from this as users with less RAM.
Ready Boost is a facility that can utilize your USB flash drive for providing quick access memory which the operating system can use as surplus RAM. To set up Ready Boost, follow the steps given below:
- Connect a USB flash drive.
Open ‘My Computer’.
Right-click the USB Drive.
Select the ‘Ready Boost’ tab.
Select the ‘Use this device’ checkbox.

7.Video Card settings and Overclocking:
If you have a dedicated video card the best way to increase FPS is to apply this setting:
Anti-Aliasing = Use application setting
Anisotropic Filtering = Use application setting
Tessellation = AMD optimized
Mipmap detail level = in the middle of quality and performance is fine (don't set it too low, this controls how you see little icons like items/gear. If you turn it too low you wont be able to tell what your purchasing.)
Vertical refresh = Off
Anti-Aliasing mode = Performance + multi-sample AA
open GL setting = unchecked
How to: Right click on your desktop > Graphics option. look for these settings and change them as is above.
8.clean your system
If you don't clean up your computer it will run slow. junk files, broken shortcuts, fragmented HDD can all lead to poor performance. CCcleaner is an excellent cleaning program, and its free.

9.Defrag your hard drive
To be honest with you.When someone used to recommend me to defrag my computer; I always neglected that, because i had defragged many times before without any noticable performance. Until I was recommended to use" ultimate defrag 3 by disk trix".Today, I have to admit that ultimate defrag 3 increased my fps by 5-10. Besides my computer seems to be more responsive than before.

How to: Open downloaded archieve > Double click "tweak.reg". A message will pop up that says " Adding information can unintentionally change or delete etc.". Just hit Yes. Same for the second message. You're done^^

viruses, Trojans, and malware will also slow down your computer by 30% - 50%. Sometimes your antivirus won't be able to detect them especially malware. Most cases a malware is an undetectable RAT(Remote Administration Tool).

There is one extremely effective way to track down the virus and delete it entirely from your computer. It's HouseCall online scanner, all you need to do: Download it > run it > wait few secs to get some updates > click Scan .Now wait until scan is over. If housecall finds something.
