New Year Info Dump
Posted: 06 Jan 2025, 04:32
Happy new year everyone, I'm going to leave a few things here for you to try out.
I was mostly looking for hidden BIOS and regedit settings last year so I only found some of the more basic ones in Windows. There are things that further reduced my already insanely low input delay, so here goes.
The first one is quite strange: removing 7-zip and associated registry keys. This one is quite good because if you need to use it, you can just reinstall it and then remove everything again in about 30 seconds. The keys are located in Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software and Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE
This one resets the Windows Hardware Scoring or whatever it's called. Some people on forums claim it to be useful after installing drivers.
IT CAN POTENTIALLY REDUCE PERFORMANCE
CMD or PowerShell:
winsat formal -restart clean
I remember this to be a commonly suggested one but removing search indexing on all your drives, preferably with NSudo or something that can grant you full access.
The last one is leaving your GPU in MSI Mode because without it, latency is worse. Not having it in MSI Mode gives me an fps boost and also much better hitreg but it is hard to look over the
