About my settings for computer optimization

Post by alp15eren » 14 Jan 2025, 05:24

I want to show you the optimization settings I have made. Is there anything I am doing wrong? Or you can give me advice for the better.

Operating System I am using: Windows 11 24H2 (26100.2605)
I am not using Custom OS. I am using Stock Windows. I have not debloated in any way. Windows Update and Defender are on.

My System:

8x2GB 3200MHZ CL16 Ram
RTX 3070 (900mv 1980mhz core clock)
R5 5600 (-30 all core +200mhz boost)
B450M A Pro Max (I placed a mosfet heatsink on the VRM. I am not experiencing Thermal Throttling)

Bios Settings:
Global C State: Disabled
CPU PCIe ASPM Mode Control: Disabled
PSS Support: Disabled
Resizable Bar: Disabled


Regedit Settings:

(I didn't see much effect of this setting, but it doesn't hurt to turn it off. Xbox Gamepass and xbox game bar work without any problems.)

Code: Select all

reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsRuntime\ActivatableClassId\Windows.Gaming.GameBar.PresenceServer.Internal.PresenceWriter" /v ActivationType /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f 
(When this setting is on, I experience a noticeable performance drop in some games. Also, I don't use virtualization technology, so it doesn't work at all)

Code: Select all

reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\DeviceGuard" /v EnableVirtualizationBasedSecurity /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
(I am using a program that runs as a Windows service that I coded and sets the timer resolution to 1ms)

Code: Select all

reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\kernel" /v GlobalTimerResolutionRequests /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
CMD Settings:

I set the power plan to high performance and Interrupt Steering mode to Processor 1. Processor 1 works better than Processor 0 and Unparked Cores)

Code: Select all

powercfg /h off

Code: Select all

powercfg -setactive 8c5e7fda-e8bf-4a96-9a85-a6e23a8c635c

Code: Select all

powercfg /SETACVALUEINDEX SCHEME_CURRENT 48672f38-7a9a-4bb2-8bf8-3d85be19de4e 2bfc24f9-5ea2-4801-8213-3dbae01aa39d 6
MSI Utility:

Taking the graphics card out of MSI mode gives better performance. I just set the High Definition Audio Controller to low priority.

Go Interrupt Policy: (While doing the Latencymon tests, I did it while downloading + running an application that gives 6000 fps. I think I got the most accurate results this way.)

GPU:

By watching Latencymon, I changed my Graphics Card to the lowest latency core. I made the graphics card + pcie port. When I made only the graphics card, I had fps problems.

Ethernet:

Changing it directly from the program for Ethernet didn't work. So I assigned it to the second lowest latency core with RSS. When I left Ethernet on cpu0, it caused micro stutters while actively downloading.

I actively monitored from Latencymon and xperf.

It gives stable results while downloading and uploading while playing games.

Before these settings, I was experiencing micro stutters in games where I got high fps. For example, Valorant.

I was experiencing frame time spike problem in CS2. Now this problem is fixed.

Apex Legends, Valorant, CS2, Marvel Rivals, The Outlast Trials, Phasmophobia, RDR2, Gta 5, Fortnite (Performance Mode and DX12), Minecraft Java Edition (My performance in single player increased)

I have been using these settings for a few months. I have done many windows updates and I have not had any problems with any of them. I have put all my settings in a batch file. In this way, it is enough to run the batch file once after the update.

Frame times I get in Apex Legends. There are slight spikes, but they only happen when I open my inventory or loot. I'm using +fps_max unlimited. I'm getting 170-300fps. It's very smooth and I can play without any lag.

go to aim_botz
shot to head
your fps is slightly decrease after bot died?

I have pretty much the same settings as you except: i dont see "CPU PCIe ASPM Mode Control" and "PSS Support" in bios,also my Resizable Bar is Enabled.Can i ask why is your audio is not in msi ? also this is my msi what should i change ? and should i disable resize bar?

I did a test for CS2. There is a slowdown in certain parts of the video, not a stutter, but this problem is not caused by me. When I watch the original MP4 video, there is no such thing. Maybe it is due to the browser.

I have applications open in the background and I am downloading games via Steam.

The settings I mentioned may appear differently on each motherboard. I don't know why my sound is not on the MSI because when I install the driver normally, only my graphics card is in msi mode. I also remove it from msi mode.

The resizable bar causes stutters on AMD systems (including Nvidia graphics cards and AMD processors). When I turn it off, I have a much better gaming experience.

My sound was not in msi mode also i put it,and my vc was in msi just like yours.

can i ask you to run this https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/ ... 3240880604 benchmark with "resize bar enabled and under it above 4g enabled" in bios. and then go in bios disabled it and do the test again.also i have amd cpu and rx 580 8gb but when i disabled resize bar i have only 256mb.Look the screen.

The resizable bar setting does not make a difference in fps in CS2. But it causes a lot of trouble in some games, especially Call of Duty.

I do not recommend the map you posted. Because it gives very irrelevant results. The real test is to constantly check FPS, 1% and Frametime in a normal match.

i will do benchmark with it enabled and disabled and post results,with benchmarks result its the only way i can track it.
