ok thanks,can you test this thing that i show on the screen as well,so this is default on the picture but when you change msi limit to more then one in my case max is 4 ,when i change it to 4 i have from 1 "irq 4294967290 Realtek PCIe GbE Familly Controller"

to 4 irqs "irq 4294967290 Realtek PCIe GbE Familly Controller"

wich in theory is better but can you test it as well?
as u see in the image below, i have limit = 16, so i have 16 irqs, according to chatgpt this is how to get your best value :
For most gamers, starting with an MSI limit of 8 and adjusting to 16 as needed can strike the right balance between performance and stability. Always tailor the settings to your specific hardware and gaming requirements, and perform thorough testing to ensure the best possible gaming experience.

and for RSS, these are my settings:
Using 2 queues with 2 cores: 12 and 14 and NUMAStatic as profile, till now, my gaming experience has changed, no more delay.

If we compare your screenshot and mine the only diffrence we have are in:

NumberOfReceiveQueues i have 4 you have 2

BaseProcessor: [Group:Number] : 0:3-mine
MaxProcessor: [Group:Number] : 0:3-mine

BaseProcessor: [Group:Number] : 0:12-yours
MaxProcessor: [Group:Number] : 0:14-yours

MaxProcessors : 1-mine

MaxProcessors : 2-yours

I think you see diffrence because of this exact thinkgs.Can you show me hot to change to see like yours,also 3 days ago u did even have rss now you add it by hand and you see diffrence this is what excatly i said,if it works its night and day difference,and we must prove it by benchmarks or something so can people try it.

rss is always using one core even if you have all cores in
but you can force to use one specific core with MaxProcessors 1 and baseprocessornumber x (specific core you want to use)

Personally, had tested with RSS for some while as well until I read somewhere it created more problems or doesn't work as well as it does and adds nothing to Gaming specifically.

I took it off, and it resolved some of the packetloss problems or issues I was experiencing.
Take it with a grain of salt and do experiment (which is why I wanted to follow this thread if I did something incorrectly)
Ok big man thanks,so bassicly this is what my settings should look like:

Also what must be my interrupt priority when i install fresh net drivers its always High
Also what must be my Transmit / Receive values be ? i did try 64 128 6144.

Can you prove it ? Also what is the diffrence if it runs on core 2 1 3 or 0 ?

On your screenshot your "max limit is 32" wich is maximum 32 irqs but ,but the limit value can go above,so as you seen in my case maximum "limit" value is 2048,even tho in "msi_util" "max limit" is 4 ,so i think in your case lets say if you put your max limit value like i find it out threw "GoInterruptPolicy.exe" and it lets say in my case 2048>4 ,if the irqs move from to 32 it works but, i am not sure should me 2048 limit even tho it goes only to 4 irqs.
Whenever i change the limit i get blue sceen, can't test it.

For your second question about my settings ,this is how you can change it:

RssBaseProcNumber: first cpu core to use (i used core 12)
RssMaxProcNumber: last cpu core to use (i used core 14)
MaxRssProcessors: how many processors to use in [RssBaseProcNumber, RssMaxProcNumber] (i used core 2)

PS: RSS doesn't use LOGICAL PROCESSORS, only PHYSICAL ONES

Change XXXXX by the value you want

Reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4d36e972-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}\0001" /v "*RssBaseProcNumber" /t REG_DWORD /d "XXXXX" /f
Reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4d36e972-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}\0001" /v "*RssMaxProcNumber" /t REG_DWORD /d "XXXX" /f
Reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4d36e972-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}\0001" /v "*MaxRssProcessors" /t REG_DWORD /d "XXXX" /f

After that, disable and enable your network card to apply these settings.

ok thanks,i forgot to mention my cpu is ancient i5 6600 may thats why rss no such big deal for me?

I think you need more cores in your CPU (from 8 and above)

Ok then i guess maybe i will disable rss and everything else possible and only use msi mode on:)
thanks for testing rss profiles,they dont make any diffrence.i was wondering should i disable rss in net adapter advanced options and in cmd, or only in advanced options

yes with windows performance analyzer
record and check it yourself

even with disabled rss you can change which core ndis.sys should work with baseprocessornumber

Ok so in your opinion this is what my settings should look like?

and also should my cmd be like that or should i disable it
