These are things I, myself do; I find them great, safe & simple. As a disclaimer: Use at your own risk. 1. LET'S CLEAN THE CRAP FROM YOUR COMPUTER & OPTIMIZE I. To that end, download the free program CCLEANER. If this isn't something you do regularly, you may be surprised by the amount of junk it finds and clears: https://www.ccleaner.com/ccleaner/download/standard II. Install CCLEANER III. Run CCLEANER IV. Click 'Anaylyze' V. Click 'Clean' VI. Find the menu on the left & click 'registry'. This will fix irrelevant entries no longer needed. VII. Click scan for issues VIII. Click 'Fix Selected Issues'....Click 'scan' & 'fix' again until it returns no issues. (Registries are like branching trees, requiring several passes to prune all the obsolete branches) 2. TIME TO OPTIMIZE YOUR COMPUTER SO IT RUNS MORE EFFICIENTLY I. DOWNLOAD ADVANCED SYSTEM CARE This program is an all-in-one computer optimization program. Other discrete programs may do an individual job better, but this tool has something for eveyone. https://bit.ly/2Qh4w02 II. INSTALL THE PROGRAM III. RUN THE PROGRAM IV. FROM THE TOP MENU, CLICK 'CLEAN & OPTIMIZE' V. CHECK THE 'SELECT ALL' BOX VI. CLICK 'SCAN' VII. CLICK 'FIX' VIII. FROM THE TOP MENU, SELECT 'SPEED UP' IX. CLICK 'DEEP OPTIMIZATION' X. AS A BONUS, WHEN YOU ARE READY TO GAME, ENABLE THE 'TURBO BOOST' OPTION ON THE LEFT TO FREE UP RAM & CPU RESOURCES. YOU CAN TURN IT OFF AGAIN WHEN FINISHED GAMNG 3. YOU CAN DOWNLOAD SPECCY TO VIEW YOUR SYSTEM'S MAIN COMPONENTS, THEIR MANUFACTURERS, OPERATING TEMPS, ETC.: https://www.ccleaner.com/speccy 4. UPDATE YOUR GRAPHICS DRIVERS: I. AMD: https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/faq/dh-016 OR https://www.amd.com/en/support II.

Small detail is that you have to uncheck their CCleaner Monitor system. And the 'Startup' section is very nice to unmark (all these three tabs in) them that you don't need. Add some MS Visual with it and DX-Websetup up and all Motherboards Drivers with the latest BIOS and some Idiots, and you are fine Timmah! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having a second screen or a single one, you always see the temps and what Max hit of Celc. it did. Amazing and a lovely program, just like CPU-Z to check things out.
