The best computer accelerators

Probably, every user of Windows OS knows that over time after a "clean" installation of the system, it starts to slow down, to put it mildly, and even hangs at all. What to do in this case, and which computer accelerator (or optimization method) to use, we now look. At the same time we will understand which processes are generally subject to optimization.

What are computer accelerators?

Actually, any utilities of this type, whether it's own operating system tools or third-party applications and software packages, in computer terminology are usually called optimization tools.

Today, utilities, which are usually classified as computer accelerators, are found quite a lot. True, they can be conventionally divided into optimizers, allowing to exclude all kinds of problems in the system (software) part, and those that are able to directly affect the "iron" components of any computer system, regardless of which company is their manufacturer.

Optimizing your own Windows tools

Computer accelerator may not always look like an application or software package developed by a third-party manufacturer. Not all users know that the administration and optimization of their own terminal can be made even with the help of the own tools of the operating systems of the Windows family.

First of all, you should pay attention to cleaning the disk from the "garbage". For example, in systems like Windows 7, 8 and 10, this process works much better than in complex optimizers. Its use allows you to delete even the installation files "OSes", which is not available in most other programs.

Do not neglect and defragmentation, the process of which allows you to transfer the most frequently used files and programs to the fastest areas of the disk. True, according to the majority of users and experts, this process does not cause much enthusiasm. First and foremost is that it takes quite a lot of time. Third-party software products work much faster in this respect.

The simplest way, when you can not use computer accelerators at all, is the use of the universal command msconfig, called, say, from the "Run" menu with the subsequent transition to the startup section. Here you can disable almost everything (except for the most important system processes).

In addition to the fact that the antivirus should remain on, it is ideal to note that only the ctfmon service should remain in the autoload, which is responsible for the language layout of the keyboard and its switching. Do not be afraid, system processes can not be disabled. Yes it is not necessary. In Windows 10 so generally, they are simply hidden from the eyes of the user. In extreme cases, you can simply complete some process, nothing more.

Acceleration with the help of complex optimizers

As for software products of this type, they are presented quite differently. For example, it could be a game accelerator on a computer, an optimizer for running background services and processes, or a software package that allows the processor to overclock without physical intervention.

However, as practice shows, most applications of this type include many special modules, among them Advanced System Care, CCleaner, AVG PC TuneUp 2015, Glary Utilities, Windows 7 Manager, Ashampoo WinOptimizer and many others.

Separately, it's worth mentioning about the utility iObit Uninstaller, which allows you to remove the installed applications and the remaining files or entries in the system registry entirely. About the register will be told a little later.

Optimizing the Internet connection

There is no need to explain that not everyone can afford to install a dedicated line with a bandwidth of 100 Mbit / s to 1 Gbit / s. But the speed of the connection directly affects the settings for opening access to web pages and downloading information from the World Wide Web.

What to use? To do this, any utility that is an Internet accelerator on a computer can be used. As it is clear from the title, programs like Internet Optimizer can be used. As a rule, user participation is not required here. Simply start the process, and the program will determine the most suitable parameters for the Internet connection, including even optimizing the use of IPv6, which in most cases is not used when specifying standard settings (uses mostly IPv4 only).

Acceleration of games

With modern toys, the situation is somewhat more complicated. Accelerator games on the computer need to use only one that allows you to perform a comprehensive optimization of absolutely all system and "iron" components. First of all, this concerns the parameters of video cards and CPUs, as well as the resolution of the computer terminal monitor or the laptop screen for the most efficient transmission of the picture. This especially applies to the dynamic scenes in the first-person shooter FPS.

In this case, a utility such as Razor Game Booster can be useful. By the way, it is able not only to optimize gaming processes on a PC or in the case of passing games online, but also has a mass of useful functions that are present in the aforementioned complex optimizers.

Computer Accelerator

As you know, the CPU, not to mention the motherboard, is the heart of the whole system. Many users, called overclockers, try to squeeze out of it the maximum performance due to overclocking. If anyone does not know, the clock frequency of absolutely any processor can be increased, in comparison with the factory settings, since it, so to speak, has a power reserve.

If earlier it was necessary to rearrange contacts for this, now it is possible to use software solutions. So, for example, for this purpose any specific accelerator of games on the computer, but it is better to use usual means of BIOS where the parameter of a multiplier of the processor (Ratio) on the system bus changes. For example, for processors running at the manufacturer's stated frequency of 1.33 GHz, the performance gain can eventually reach a frequency of 2.0 GHz.

For AMD processors, you can advise the AMD Overdrive utility, which allows you to produce very fine settings that optimize the use of all the features of these chipsets as much as possible, even without physical overclocking.

Optimizing RAM by cleaning the registry

Now about the sad. Are you wondering where to find the memory accelerator for the computer? It is worth grieving you. There are no such programs! If there are utilities that allow developers, as claimed by the developers, to optimize the "operating system", this acceleration, rather, reduces only to cleaning the application cache and the clipboard, and certainly not to optimize it.

In principle, in this case it is acceptable to use standard Windows features. This can be either increasing the size of the paging file (for low-power systems) or completely disabling it (for faster access to RAM and saving reserved disk space).

In addition, it is worthwhile to use computer accelerators, which allow you to delete incorrect, erroneous or obsolete keys and entries from the system registry, the presence of which leads to a significant slowdown. Own means in OS Windows are not present, so it is better to address to the special programs in which there are such functions. The simplest example is a utility such as Registry Optimizer, although in the multi-purpose software packages described above, there is also such a module, and it starts when testing and optimizing the system in one click.

Disk and Registry Defragmentation

Do not discount the defragmentation process. For hard drives, any utilities that can transfer data to the fastest areas of the disk without changing their physical address are suitable (only the actual location changes).

For the registry it is better to use specialized utilities. They work somewhat differently, helping to organize keys so that the system does not read them for a long time. But even when you boot Windows, this is exactly what happens. The system accesses not only the data in the boot area of the disk, but also the system registry. So it turns out that in the case when the records in it are not ordered, the system simply "picks" in search of the right key for downloading a particular component.

What's better?

As it is already clear, it is simply impossible to allocate some best computer accelerator. Each software product has its own direction and purpose. Depending on which process or component should be optimized, and which package is used. It is worth saying that experienced users are better to use highly focused applications. Well, for a regular user, some universal product suitable for speeding up a PC in one click in automatic mode even without its participation is suitable.
