Maximize Gaming Performance
PC's have become one of the most diverse gaming systems in the world with fully customizable graphic settings to fit every computer according to their system specs. It can get very tiresome if you are unable to run a game at a higher texture level, because running games on low settings gets boring very easily. Here are a couple of ways to maximize your gaming experience...
Prioritize your Game
By setting your game's .exe to be prioritized higher than the applications that your running, it can drastically improve its performance. Here's how to do so:
1. When in the main menu of your game, press ALT+TAB on your keyboard
2. Once in your desktop, right-click your taskbar and select Task Manager
3. Go to Processes tab, right-click your game's process and Set Priority to High
Ending Processes Before Running Games
1. Right-Click your taskbar and select Properties
2. From there go to Processes tab (If "show processes from all users" is checked, UNCHECK IT)
3. Here you have all of your running tasks. What I recommend doing is researching every single process by either typing it in Google or asking us. If you don't want to research, that's fine I'll just show you the most vital process you need to close.
4. Run your game, once in the main menu hit ALT+TAB on your keyboard (This will bring you back to your desktop, but your game will still be running)
5. Right-Click taskbar and select Properties
6. Go to Processes and close explorer.exe (this will close your taskbar and hide all of your desktop files and folders, don't worry) To go back in game just hit ALT+TAB again
7. To restore explorer.exe, after finishing your game, hit CTRL+ALT+DELETE and select TASK MANAGER
8. In Applications tab select New Task and in the box type in Explorer
PC games only render 2 buffers when playing. Here's a tip on how to force 3 buffers
*RECOMMEND ONLY FOR THOSE WHO HAVE 256MB OR MORE OF VIDEO MEMORY
1. Download and install Rivatuner
2. Once installed, go to Start, All Programs
3. Click on Rivatuner v2.24 folder and then on D3DOverrider
4. Once opened, click on the + sign on the bottom to add the exe of the pc game you want rendered
5. Make sure to highlight the game by clicking on it and then on the right side, put Application detection level to High and Triple Buffering to On and Vsync to OFF
Cheers and Happy Gaming!
