The Nagle's algorithm tweak is useless as games use UDP packets to transfer data and this algorithm only is an optimization of TCP packets. In fact, by doing this "tweak" you will decrease the efficiency of anything requiring TCP connections, like browsing, downloading files and so on...
Came here to say this. The mouse precision thing has also not been true for a long time.
@@MenkoDanymodern games use raw input
@@Rexeh1 Exactly, ask me, a (former, by now, I guess?) game developer
@@MenkoDany Yeah this is a useless video. There isn’t any tweaks that will significantly increase fps. People simply need to accept and upgrade their hardware if they want better performance.
Although this is typically true, several games use a "mixed" network architecture. Sometimes non-latency sensitive data (like connection data) will be transported via tcp for the better reliability. See minecraft as a good example for this.
Drawing flame decals on the sides of my pc makes it faster
RGB too
Personally, painting the entire PC (including the internals) red makes things go faster.
I didn't put decals but I still see flames 🤔
It always has and works on other things too! My phone is so much faster since I did this on there!
Paint it red too, every Ork knows red goes fastah!
ALT+F4 speeds up just about every game for me. I try to hit it during really important moments for maximum effect.
Can confirm 👍
It's hard to believe young gamers don't know about this trick! It's gotten me out of many tricky situations
yeah it reduces load on your gpu by 99%
Don't forget about RGB
@@zyxiw Yes, agree! The more RGB you have, the faster your PC will be! 🤔🙄
If you want to use the "adjust for best performance", I recommend to keep the "smooth edge of screen fonts" box ticked, because it can sometimes alter how text are displayed in the screen
Its like anti-aliasing for fonts. You can turn it off for questionably better performance, but the edges of text will look more jagged. These settings don't make a huge benefit to performance, but they make the computer feel snappier turning off animations.
Honestly it doesn't give any performance improvement, but the main concern is it also alters the type font in word processing application. In some case it makes a lot of difference so it's no more WYSIWYG when you try to print it
(Edit: the performance settings give performance boost, but if you tick the text smoothing box it won't affect anything)
Definitely the first thing I do, when logging onto a virt or remote machine .. but yeah gotta keep font smoothing on!
I don't know why this option is in this video since they only affect performance on desktop usage and not gaming xD
it's not like windows is gonna enable it's "Basic Theme" like we had the option to do back in Windows 7 that actually increases performance since it displays windows directly without going through the desktop compositor, to be fair the current implementation of DWM does seem to support direct compositing tho
once you're used to having no mouse acceleration you become a pro fps player on the desktop after a few months. you learn the exact distance to other stuff on the screen, feels awesome
Real gamers make their own mouse acceleration curve
Real gamers don't use acceleration
@@DaxxterDreams sorry bro you fake gmer
I configure multiple, stacked acceleration curves that work in concert with an eye tracker and heart/respiration monitor that feeds a stream of raw data to a Precognitive Prediction Engine which constantly analyzes the information stream to decide intent within milliseconds of it happening, which then finally tweaks the acceleration curves for the upcoming action it has predicted. This all happens thousands of times a second to help enable lightning-quick plays in Hearthstone with minimal effort 😎
Dont games use raw input, meaning no mouse acceleration?
List of things I was maybe hoping to learn more about, but didn't:
- HAGS (hardware-assisted graphics scheduling) .. what the heck is that about?
- Resize-BAR .. I also still don't really understand what the tradeoff is, with that
- the "Fullscreen Optimizations" stuff seems to have come/gone/changed a lot over the past 5 years .. I have no idea what the current state of that is, and what's best
- any settings or visibility into controlling keyboard/mouse/joystick input latency, on Windows
And, maybe more on the NVidia side of things, than Windows, but:
- how do things like HDR, color-depth, and GPU-scaling affect fps and latency?
- what the heck is "low-latency mode" .. does it have any different effect when running games in borderless-window mode vs fullscreen-exclusive mode
You could reduce latency by checking your motherboard manufacturer manual and checking which USB ports go directly to the CPU rather than a seperate chipset
HDR and things like that are completely display-based and usually do not affect performance
There are other CZcams videos that explain Nvidia Low Latency modes better than I do but On + Boost forces the GPU to max boost clocks and GPU percentage to get the most FPS. You should turn it to just On for everything and ONLY On + Boost
@@decliningship4208 that's a great tip I've never heard or thought of before .. certainly costs nothing to try. thanks!
You can use a PS/2 mouse and keyboard since its an older simpler protocol that transmits signals faster than USB.
One setting in games to look for is to play in fullscreen exclusive instead of windowed fullscreen. Fullscreen exclusive is usually less demanding, while windowed fullscreen could be better if you need to alt-tab alot and have any overlays in the game.
The alt-tab thing is literally a non-issue even in exclusive full screen as nowadays we have SSDs
If u wanna swap between fullscreen and windowed, hit alt+enter 👍
@xFluing a lot of older games like to crash when you log out like dawn of war soulstorm or aom original
@@grimm_8819When Fullscreen it will close the game when you alt enter. Windowed Fullscreen is a different option that negates that.
@xFluing Some games really don't like it when you alt tab out of fullscreen and will crash Edit: Bethesda Games for example alt tabbing out of Skyrim Fallout etc in full screen pretty much guarantees a crash. Though tbf they'll crash if you look at them wrong but if you were trying to speedrun crashing those games alt tabbing in full screen would be the quickest way to do it :P
I'd really like a similar videos, but for stuff you should change in the BIOS/UEFI Settings for a new PC. Stuff like:
Enable XMP/EXPO,
Enable ReBar,
Maybe adjusting power limits for intel CPUs,
Maybe some more nieche settings. idk.
It'd be also great to have an example for where to find each setting in the most common Motherboard vendor UIs (MSI, Gigabyte ...)
Every time I setup a new PC I struggle to remember everything.
Turning off case lights when the PC is off (all of them, both rgb and functional) proved to be surprisingly tricky on my Asus motherboard. As someone who doesn't have anywhere to put the PC case other than with the glass window facing my bed really close, it's very distracting.
Would love to know more
@leonro Ah, yes. I went down this rabbit hole myself. The RGB setting has some obscure title for some reason.
@@SNu263 I actually had to change the motherboard's power limit settings for when the pc is shut down, because just turning rgb off still left me with a couple of obnoxiously bright (but static) on-board leds.
@@leonro It's calling to you dude just 30 more minutes... 😂
The amount of people I know that don’t go into windows settings and change the refresh rate to suit their monitor
Guilty, thanks! Just got a new laptop and I wondered why when I connected it to a second display that there was some lag
I've seen system updates and found my refresh rate changed, also power plan setting stuff in w11 seems to like setting it to 60hz.
But games use UDP and not TCP which has Nagle's algorithm disabled already. Also you would only be disabling it for the packets you send. Not the ones you receive from your opponents so you still wouldn't see a difference.
So you mean that I'll potentially be helping my opponents? Good, now I can finally have an excuse for my bad gaming skills.
nice one
Regardless of the specific setting not doing anything useful, I wouldn't want my gun fire to be delayed...

most of the game use UDP but there is always some special, minecraft use TCP
So, I've got this old 14 core xeon workstation with 128gb of ram and I use it for playing games and keeping track of like 20-30 chrome tabs ata a time and always used to see call kinds of weird hitching with the internet. I just tried the registry trick you mentioned and my latency has been smooth as butter ever since. Since I have more ram and cores than I'd ever know what to do with, I probably would see little to no benefit to using Nagle's algorithm and would only experience any costs. Thanks for the tip!
Just curious, which game(s) are you playing? There have been multiple comments from others that most games use UDP, which is not affected by nagles algorithm.
Why tf do u have 128gb of ram with a xeon chip
The thumbnail with Linus telling you to delete system32 is most Linus thing I've seen
yeah but did you do it ?
yes
SNAP !
Bro thank you so much, I keep missing my hits in MC, and now I know why 😂😂
I had a problem at work that I solved yesterday by turning off game mode. I’m a software developer, and my laptop has just enough RAM to run Docker containers, WSL, VScode, and a browser or several browsers. On a new laptop, I would periodically experience random slowdowns with some windows freezing, becoming unresponsive, or slowing down significantly. It seems so far that game mode being on by default was the issue. With users in general being more prone to opening a larger amount of apps at the same time, I’m surprised that it comes on by default instead of showing up like a recommendation maybe in the system notifications when you start playing a game
i recomand you to run docker and WSL (or even linux) on an other computer, so it take less RAM of your main computer.
Also docker is not rly optimized for windows, i recommend use linux for that.
Can’t believe they didn’t mention to turn off game DVR as thats the biggest fps increase from windows settings
I forgot that was even a thing
There's powershell scripts to uninstall it completely so it won't reactivate itself after an update.
What's that? If you don't mind me asking?
Clean your PCs vents because heat saps performance. Use fullscreen mode, disable v-sync and motion blur. Adjust settings based on your computer specs, texture sizes, foliage need gpu memory and cpu to decompress, these settings affect loading time. Model complexity, FOV, anti-aliasing and most other settings need raw GPU power. Enable FSR or DLSS if the game supports it. If the game doesn't run well, try a lower resolution, 720p high is much easier to render then 1080p medium. 720p with 2x anti-aliasing is more pixels then 1080p without AA, so get to your native resolution before enabling AA. Open task manager - startup, disable everything that you don't use every time you use your computer.
motion blur is purely taste and vsync does help against tearing and spending significant resources on rendering frames you don't get to see
Most games don't even use MSAA these days since deferred rendering made it almost useless. Most AA options in recent games will be extremely fast post-process algorithms that don't change how many pixels you're rendering like supersampling does (or MSAA, to an extent).
@@croozerdogthis...!
I feel personally called out here… I’m a developer, leave my 1458 tabs alone!
I have a trick where when I need that RAM back I *forcibly kill* my browser so when it opens back up it offers to restore all my tabs.
@@GSBarlev theres usually a browser setting to open last session, instead of just a new tab/homepage...
@GSBarlev Thats not a trick…. Thats under utilising your tools, like i said… developer.
Did you know that all chromium based browsers have a setting that remembers your tabs and reopens them, or opens specific groups pre set within the same options pane.
Then take this further and enable sleeping tabs = memory hog no more…
The more you know :)
@@TheSimRacers That's also available on firefox, so no need to give google more internet marketshare :)
@@Sillysor try using microsoft docs, piled with the rest, then come back and ask that haha 🤗
In all seriousness though, most are used, a-lot get cleared monthly into many obsidian vaults.
Aye that last tip was massive. Plz more like that!
I recently reset my pc. I completely forgot about enhanced pointer precision. Thank you, gonna give the recommendation with the registry editor a try.
It's baffling to me that the mouse acceleration setting is still the default option, and has such a misleading name, arguably it does the exact opposite of "enhance pointer precision". If you want to get the mouse around the screen more quickly, just use higher DPI / sensitivity.
yeah its from the olden days with inaccurate rubber ball mice. that old style mouse option menu hasn't changed in decades
Worst part is people get used to it and don't want to try turning it off because of muscle memory, habits etc.
When using someone else's PC that's one of the first things I notice, even after showing them how the mouse drifts with fast movement, they don't want to leave their usual "comfort zone"
hey techquickie video idea here: make a compilation of forum resources for obscure computer things
i remember tons of forums from the late 90s to the early 2010s which had tons of information about anything such as RMA or per game per gpu nvidia "developer" level settings or even very niche information like the best ergonomic controller button mapping for the best layout
this library isn't limited to PCs alone but all kinds of hardware, its even bigger than all the obscure info in CZcams believe it or not, a library of babel !
people discuss and collect all kinds of information enriching the internet
this deserves a giant video, do it.
Just thinking yeah we know all about these annnnnd I was wrong. Nice video! Totally love learning new things like this. It's like finding money in the laundry :))
The Game Mode reminds me of back in the Win98 era. I had a computer that was getting way old at the time, and playing some games was not as fun as it could have been. The original Diablo was one of those. Yes, original Diablo got laggy on my machine, so underpowered was it.
Well thing is I was also very much an enthusiast of LiteStep, a Desktop replacement that was incredibly customizable and that could be a lot lighter than the regular desktop. Early on it was a either/or situation and you changed the desktop loaded by editing system.ini, if I remember correctly. However as people got tired of this someone created a desktop selector that would put up a selection menu when windows were starting and in you didn't do a selection within a time limit it would start whatever desktop environment you had marked as default.
Well Diablo was still a bit laggy, so I looked at the desktop environment selector, had a thought and added Diablo to the .inf file. And wouldn't you know, it ran so smooth when there weren't a desktop loaded with all the processes and memory they would take up, but just the game.
This actually worked on Windows XP too. Though I was giving up on the custom desktop environment and used it less and less by that time. And the machine I had built by then was a monster, at least for half a year or so...
Still, even today I sometimes I feel it would be nice to just log out, close all non essential services and processes and then log back in but directly into a game instead of having explorer.exe and all the crap it loads to server up the desktop hovering in the background sucking up CPU cycles and system RAM when all I want to do is play a game. And that's me on a machine with pretty good specs. For low spec or budget gamers that would probably make life a lot better.
this was such an informative video. could you make a video about other cool things to do with your computer?
1:00 but what if I randomly need one of the 200+ tabs I have opened while gaming…?
thanks. this helps
You all should make videos with benchmarks for different settings with different gpus. best amd/best nvidia settings.. best low budget gpu settings both nvidia/amd.
I recommend disabling Nahimic on MSI motherboards/laptops. In some games (e.g., CONTROL), it makes launching the .exe impossible.
I heard about TechQuickie from previous LTT videos but didn't know that it was basically a "tech tips for dummies" type thing. Love it!
Riley’s disk drive shirt looks like it’s ‘Star Wars Kilo Ren edition’ 😂
Auto hdr is truly wonderful. Ever better when you use the HDR calibration app in the windows store.
I just have Windows Update disabled. I update on my terms, not Microsoft's.
Let' me guess, updating only GPU driver?
I find that pressing ALT and F4 at the same time during a game gives you 50% more FPS, and up to 75% more FPS if you're playing a multiplayer game
And 69% sanity as well.
I did not know about this. Learn somethin new every day hot damn. Thanks Riley and tech mf quickie
I would probably put a little more elbow grease into research next time to double check things.
Regedit hack will not only does nothing for UDP packets which most multiplayer games use, it could even reduce performance or increase network latency due to other processes now being less efficient and having to send more TCP packets congesting the network.
Most PC games released in the last 10-15 years use raw mouse input rather than getting that input information through Windows, so that setting will not have any impact most of the time, but better safe than sorry I guess.
The rest are probably fine and can probably edge out a few frames here and there. Tho the one about animations will just make your normal use look clunky and have no effect will in game.
Just bc careful when giving out regedit tips bc these can have a disastrous impact.
What I really love about my Linux system is that I can plug in my DualShock 4 controller and I did not have to install any drivers or configure anything.
Plug & Play as it is supposed to work!
Last i read about "game mode" was to just disable it as it messes with most games. I have it disabled but ill try it again.
I have been watching this channel since 10 years ago, and now I just Subscribed finally after all those years. :)
I hope everyone have a good day always! 😃
Always entertainingly comical. Great ending!
Ugh disabling Enhance Pointer Precision was like the opposite of putting on glasses for the first time. It feels so erratic and quick now, I'll have to get used to it I guess?
Game mode doesn't work I've still had notifications popup and wouldn't go away until I press the x to dismiss this has happened to me an uncountable amount of times now.
I use high performance energy power plan, and edited to the CPU Minimum and Maximum of 100%, this makes CPU goes maximum frequency if thermals allow. I am rocking a Noctua NH-D15s with a R7 5800X3D and its fine, I got, 4.2 Ghz average +- .1 sustained
Well shoot, this just helped me actually utilize my displays HDR. It always looked like absolute rubbish until I found the calibration in that same submenu
thanks linus!
I remember my aunt once used my pc and she found my mouse really weird to use, turns out it’s because I have mouse acceleration off and she isn’t used to that :)
Would love a video on CSM vs UEFI in a BIOS. Thanks!
CSM is just Corporate Stable Model, meaning the manufacturer pledges to keep replacement supply on hand even after the product is no longer sold, that way they can replace broken hardware without having to upgrade to a new part
@kenzieduckmoo they are talking about the bios setting lol
Short answer is they are firmware blueprints/models. BIOS is the oldest, then CSM, with UEFI being the latest technology and the one everyone should be using on modern hardware. We still call it BIOS, but computers don't really use BIOS at all anymore. As for differences, it's just functionality and compatibility for hardware and features.
Turn of the "Memory integrity" checkbox in "Core isolation" in "Device security"
I don't know why, but it helps my pc a bit
Lol I remember setting those registry entries to get a better ping in Minecraft. Fun times.
Wheres the LTT Spinning Disk shirt, I can’t find it on the website.
Most games use raw-input nowadays which bypasses enhanced pointer precision, allowing an accelerated cursor in your desktop with a constant cursor in-game.
I don't see the appeal of an accelerated cursor on desktop though. Why not have precision? The speed at which you move the cursor changes all the time based on alertness, fatigue, energy etc.
Due to that fact acceleration ensures your inputs are never consistent. You're relying on visual confirmation to stop moving or do adjustments after the fact, as opposed to feeling how much you'd need to move to reach a specific point. Getting used to system-wide raw input makes your inputs naturally more efficient, as long as your dpi isn't too low for your resolution.
do an updated guide of things to do after you build a new machine and do a new instal please
Laptop user here, Putting the Battery mode to "Best Performance" Mode, did bumped up the FPS noticeably, But I'd recommend an AC Adapter plugged in all the time while gaming, since gaming on battery is not the best idea ;-; Plus Using AC Adapter while gaming does improved the FPS (For me atleast)
Idk but disabling game mode gave me more fps

Disabling game mode stopped some stuttering I was seeing in certain games.
Same. I recommend against it.

One thing I've been doing in W11 is to divert non-gaming apps to my APU, though I haven't run many before and after benchmarks.
First, use Process Explorer to view GPU usage and collect the file path by View > Select Columns > Process GPU > (select as per your preferences) > Sort by GPU Committed > Right-click process, Properties > Copy Path
Then go to Settings > Display > Graphics > Add an app > Browse > Paste > Options > Specific GPU > select your APU/IGPU.
I wouldn't expect you guys to make a video like this 😥
ok, i'll admit, i was dumb and young and didn't know about computers, i deleted system 32, i learned my lesson real fast
Hi. I've been watching your videos for a long time and am a big fan. Today I was watching a different tutorial about increasing PC performance and it mentioned going to system config/Boot/Advanced Settings and I changed the number of Processors from 1 to 16 (I have an 5700g) I then rebooted my PC and everything absolutely stopped working. It took about 10 mins to boot up and is now really slow. I set the number of processors back but nothing changed. I hope someone can help me with this.
FYI to others, the honks you hear at 0:29 and 0:31 are in the video, NOT someone outside your house trying to get your attention.
What about GPU accelerated task scheduling?
i subscribed and it turned my 10 yr old pc into a beast pc
You could do a similar video for audio recording and video work.
Non windows setting. Use ddu to remove nvidia drivers and install them as a driver only with nv clean install. Same thing can be done with amd using their install tool. Select the factory reset option and select driver only install.

Most games captures mouse input "directly" to circumvent windows' pointer acceleration (also to reduce latency), so changing that option will only make doing general desktop tasks worse
Notably laptops, where moving icons across the high-res display desktop can be tedious as you have to click and hold the icon twice with a touchpad that doesn't feature auto-move when reaching the edge(s)
@@Reed_Peer yes
@@MegaLokopo If you're not using your PC for gaming and you have a mouse that has a low DPI and cannot be changed, the acceleration makes some tasks like dragging icons easier and faster to complete by moving the mouse quickly while doing such tasks
Game mode causes stutter for me, even when upgrading to 5800X3D from ryzen 1600 and new windows 10 install.
A new way is to use Microsoft pc manager note: it is in public beta but it works really good
A fresh format and installation of windows, with no antivirus, pc go vrooom
Changing the task split threshold
bring back the old control panal, so much better than setting menu
That you have to go to settings, to this, to that, to this, to that menu to get TO those effects options is OBSCENE. Damn could they bury that any deeper if they tried without just removing the options entirely?!
Quick tip before anyone turns on Game Mode: I have found that Game Mode really screws with a lot of games for some reason, and causes lag spikes.
Yeah game mode is garbage, all it does is bluescreen my system several times a day

Using the wrapper DXVK for DX9-11 games might improve general performance or 1%performance in several cases, even if you are playing on Windows.
According to some, anti-tracking scripts/programs might improve general performance by disabling unnecessary telemetry crap Windows does in the background
'It prevents Windows Update from taking system resources, which can result in more framerate!'

Nagle's algorithm i had to see the subtitlesssss lmao
ANOTHER HELPFUL TIP IS TURN OFF REAL TIME PROTECTION BEFORE LAUNCHING THE GAME.. THIS HELPED ME ALOT

Start blinking immediately after “Nagle’s algorithm” text disappears. You will still see it

In my experience Game Mode causes more problems than it solves, especially on AMD systems and in VR.
I'm currently all AMD (Ryzen 5600G + 6650XT), zero issues. I've had Game Mode enabled since Windows 10 (GPUs used along the way: GTX 970, R9 390, GTX 1050 Ti, RTX 2060, Radeon/Ryzen iGPU, RTX 3060 Ti, 6650XT). If you stream with OBS, Game Mode is practically a must-have. But I haven't used VR, so I cannot speak for how stable that portion is.
Does your system support Resizable BAR or SAM cause u need Game Mode for it.
Allows PCIE streaming higher then traditional 256bit.
Damn that mouse setting! I've been annoyed by this without knowing for so long, thanks LTT 😭
Here's a tip, at least for modern AMD CPU users, not entirely sure about older AMD or Intel, but stick with the balanced power plan. I've seen a lot of videos where they tell you to choose the high performance power plan, but it can actually be worse because it creates much more heat than the performance gain, and can thermal throttle your PC. There's no difference between the Ryzen and Windows balanced power plan for the newest AMD CPUs as far as I'm aware, I would probably still choose the Ryzen one though.
I've read about Ryzen Masters Eco Mode, do you think it could help my 7800x3d? It runs quite hot. My AiO cooler might be on its last legs too tho
Clock Tuner for Ryzen works wonders, tunes according to your silicon quality.
I got Gold grade so those cores are OC 800mhz still uses a static mhz but only under demand and on the priority cores the lower grade cores CCX u under volt.
@@dioclias I would recommend starting with undervolting, helps quite a bit. Also check how long your thermal paste normally lasts, there are some that give really good performance but tend to dry out pretty quickly.
true I tester benchmark and got same results
Is Intel i3 10gen old?😅
Great tips...
