Is gamebooster any good? Does it free up cpu resources? I am trying to get Kingdoms of AmalurReckoning to not lag sometimes.

This topic is locked from further discussion.
I've never used it myself but what I've heard from people who have is the difference isn't huge. Something like 5 FPS.
You should have absolutely no problem with KoA, what do you mean lag, lag during combat? if it's that kind of lag, then you can't fix that, for some reason they thought a random stutter like freeze in combat is awesome.
Gamebooster and any other similar apps are useless.
Its really good I used it on my old comp and the difference was humongous. Iobit is pretty good too. And ccleaner to clean out internet cache and much more. Also fixes registry errorsIs gamebooster any good? Does it free up cpu resources? I am trying to get Kingdoms of AmalurReckoning to not lag sometimes.

[QUOTE="DanielDust"]Pretty sure you're way off base with that assessment. Pretty sure anyone able to manage and maintain their PC will have superior results. More applications running = worse performance, there's logic to why such applications never work, just like software to free RAM and so on.Gamebooster and any other similar apps are useless.

[QUOTE="DanielDust"]Pretty sure you're way off base with that assessment. Actually he's right, there has been a topic with the same question as this one. Then I said something like this: Gamebooster or any such programs only 'stop' processes but the programs themselves are also a (or more) process so they also use RAM which makes them useless, just make a clean boot (google it) keep your computer that way (only things that really need to start are things like virus scanners and fire walls) and if you want you can 'stop' processes any time with the task manager by hand. /threadGamebooster and any other similar apps are useless.

Make sure you put shader warming on, if you didn't already, performance is flawless.I recommend it especially if you have stutter issues with certain games like Black Ops. It didn't fully fix the problem but it improved it.

Gamebooster and any other similar programs are next to useless. If you really want a free performance boost there is only one way and is overclocking . Whats holding you back in Amalur is your dual core CPU. Overclock that to a decent 2,7-2,2,8ghz and you will see enough performance boost. Also instead of using a software like that just open your task manager then see if there are unwanted processes running or if a process is taking alot cpu cycles and terminate them . Also use msconfig ( write msconfig on your start menu ) to prevent unnecessary programs from starting with windowsGamebooster and any other similar apps are useless.

You guys seem not to understand the purpose of gamebooster, it is meant to close programs that isn't neccesary for gaming but is neccesary for other things that you do not want disabled from the beginning.... And the task manager your speak of means one has to do it every time when a click of yoru button can do the exact same thing with game booster.. And a second click brings everything else back online..
Dude, there are two things I said there.
In other words
1) Learn to manage your PC (general, not you). - it'll give way better results than a redundant application.
and the part that you fused with 1 for some reason
2) An obsolete PC, will benefit the most from a lighter OS than a redundant application.
Two button presses are more than it should require, you're doing 2 button presses just because, you're not making the OS faster, games won't run any better (5 frames is just bs compared to a real solution, the variable frame rate loss goes way beyond just 5 frames and I'm sure that was an exaggeration, software like this doesn't get more than a few frames unless the PC is a total mess).
Why exactly would somebody not satisfied with performance not take time and clean their PC for way better performance? (not some fantasy that it probably runs better because I have this software) there is no such thing as permanent and troublesome (the result of you fusing two entirely different statements), only lazy, that is a lazy excuse that contradicts what a person, asking such questions, wants to do.
