Absolutely amazing guide - it was wild seeing your system time go from 8PM at the start to 1AM in the conclusion. SO much hard work!

Thanks to you Chris! I just got Windows 11 and Office 2021 From BNH Software! The activation process was easy, and the delivery was instant.

You're the goat chris!

It’s crazy that he can fight through waves of kangaroos, while upside down, to get these vids out. Truly deserve the success. Ya love to see it

This is the best custom tweak guide out there by a mile for Windows! Nice job and thank you for taking the time to make this :)

Amazing work Chris, like ever! Stay hard 💪💪!

You're the only one who does pc optimizations that don't some how have the opposite affect on my computer thank you very much!!!

You are seriously the man for putting so much effort into all of this. The video itself is stunning and even as a total novice I felt comfortable every step of the way. Thanks for all the hard work!

I was just thinking about your videos yesterday and wondered why the links were down seems you read my mind and uploaded. Thanks bud!

Why does Microsoft not create a Gaming Friendly OS version for the millions upon millions of gamers??

Glad to see you again

Благодаря этому видео, у меня пропали лаги мыши и стало работать все плавно и быстро. Впервые в жизни вижу настолько идеальный график в mousetest. Не знаю кто ты блин такой, но ты мне просто жесть как помог. Просто браво 👏🎉

the goat is back

The best to do it! Glad this is finally out so that everyone can experience how AMAZING this acutally is. Solid job mate.

Thank you for always helping the community and for the explanatory video.

i discovered you with CAPET when u were only 500 subscriber and now u'r doing the best video ever

honestly bro i praise you as the best pc optimizer to all my pc buddies. please never quit what you are doing, so many people appreciate you chris!!!💯

Just when I'm about to build my first PC, I see this beautiful video. Thanks alot man!

I've been here since the first windows guides/tweaks. I must say its been exciting in itself seeing the organization and delivery of these tweaks; Love the content!

my man dissapeared and came back a beard and 5 gen family lol. glad to see you again and thanks for everything

Can't wait to try this out. Not gonna lie, I am gonna miss getting quick access to your game config folders.

When he was most needed, he returned

wonderful, thank you for me and my friends, I've been waiting for your video for a long time! I've been following you for a long time and your settings are the only ones that have ever actually done anything! I adore you! don't stop doing this! with these scripts/powershells you have simplified and speeded up everything! Perfect!

Always appreciate a new upload from you mate. Just wanted to drop you some love and a comment to say thank you as always. Nice one Chris.

an absolute legend with such perfect tips. Thank you for this and all that you do for us!

been preaching Fr33thy for about a decade now, even as a fellow enthusiast i learn something new every video. congrats on the 1M views well deserved! and thank you!

You're a legend Chris, cheers brother

most complete, mindful, actually caring about his viewers, actual tweaks that increase performance, very detailed, making an option for everything to be reverted. This was perfect after a clean install due to some corrupt files and general problems and slow downs

Thanks legend! Been waiting for this!

Timer resolution is very much not placebo. It is true that programs do change your timer to a lower one when using them. But I've found that something like Chrome changes it to 1.000 whilst some games change it to 0.500. Also, sometimes when you play a game and it's being changed to 0.500 if you then alt+tab and open your browser it then gets changed to 1.000 and even after you close your browser and tab back in to the game it does not get changed back to 0.500. So having something that forces it to 0.500 at all times is good. I'm thankful for this. Now, weather there is an actual difference between 1.000 and 0.500 when it comes to performance or latency that is up for debate but might aswell make sure it is set correctly at all times.

This is an absolutely invaluable resource, thank you so much for your work.

Great video!! Was using 125% scaling for windows, didn't realise it reintroduced mouse acceleration, was abit of a game changer after changing it to 100%, Thanks

Crazy stuff! Looking forward to the upcoming videos!

I'm glad you getting your flowers bro been watching your content since covid never seen anybody tweak PC's the way you do 1M on a optimization video is awesome good shit bro.

I am glad to be alive at the same time as this guy. This just keeps on getting better and better. Amazing work Chris.

MAN GLAD TO SEE YOU BACK!!!!!!!!

The man is back! Volkanovski of the PC world! Would love to see updated COD tunings! Finally on fiber so I treated myself to a 4090 and i9-14900K. Plan on getting the works from you ASAP!

I’ve learned a lot over the years man. You, buildzoid & a few others have made it very easy to understand overclocking & pretty much everything else in terms of optimizing. currently running a b650 aorus elite ax ice with 6200 CL26-36-31-30-61 @ 1.63v stable. Gpu - rtx 4090 CPU - 7800x3d Thank you for always spreading knowledge 🙏🏻. 4 years ago I knew nothing lol

It's so crazy that a video like this is free, you're a fucking legend

Appreciate all the hard work put into this Chris. You have helped me and many others a tremendous amount. Thank you.

absolute legend, once again 👍moved to a different platfort to a juicy ryzen 7 7800x3d just in time with the video did all the above on a new platford and everything works super well, thanks once again for a good video Chris 😁

Actually a goated video, I went from about 150-200fps in CS2 to now breaking 400 regularly

New FR33THY video; it's on github now? Nature is healing. // (+~35-55 FPS increase, shaved off ~1.0ms Game-to-Render latency stable) Thanks for everything Chris as always, will continue to recc/vouch everywhere applicable, and looking forward to future stuff. Good on ya

Great to see another video man. Hope all is well with the family.

The king is back. Hope life is treating you well

!The best

Sir I just wanted to hop in here and say, you sir are a GOAT. I haven’t been able to get my pc running semi smoothly for months. Gave up reset my pc for the 5th time this year, followed this vid pretty much to the T and my desktop is now butter DESTINY 2 the most unoptimized game I’ve touched is now butter. Coming from my UNSMOOTH 120 fps in 6’s to my now SMOOTH 150-160 fps. Thank you! ❤

Many thanks for the update-security on/off quickflip 🙃

Perfect timing. Assuming Amazon doesn't delay my package again, should get 4980 super and last part for my AM5 build today. Edit: I appreciate that you are going in depth with each option and all the different options between AMD, Intel, etc.

Returned when we needed you the most ❤️

as usual you deliver a fantastic guide, thanks for the hard work really appreciated

Answered tons of questions I had, and some that I have always wondered about. Thanks so much!

So happy to see another upload my guy, I just got into your channel as I recently built my first PC, your guide on how to factory install Windows was invaluable, and I found myself wanting a new video from you on how to optimise Windows, and here it is! I hope all is well with you

Just built 3 new machines, installing this on all. Thank you for all your effort in allowing us to use the full potential of our machines. Which should be a right to all

10/10 for the efforts you've put in. Excellent work!

Timer resolution does actually have a big impact especially on input lag and 1% lows. Even better if you do the Amit method of setting up the timer resolution.

This is absolutely insane with all the details and explanations and the software provided, thank you very much for putting this up, absolutely incredible.

Idk why it was failed to mention, but messing with the task bar WILL undo all pinned icons and reverting it will not restore it. If you have the taskbar in a state you like, manually edit the settings, don't use this shortcut

Who granted you the authority to create such an incredible video? Haha. Thank you, Chris, for your exceptional work, it's truly remarkable!

In FR33THY We Trust. Thanks man

Thanks u for create all this stuff without need to purchase it, u make the community learn about all this stuff.... 👍👍❤❤

Bro that is crazy thanks i cant imagine how long it took you to crate all this.

Incredible, thank you for all your effort

We need to support this guys, hes legend ! thanks for everyting

Always a holiday when Chris uploads a new optimization guide !!! Love your content bro keep it up

KZbin Gold

Love to see it broski. Been a fan for years now. You never disappoint ❤

the goat is back!

Just thank you for all your work

There aren't many people like "FR33THY" these days, someone who will tell you why you need it and make a constructive argument. Thank you so much for your time FR33THY, you've done a decent job!

Love your guides! inspired me years ago jump in the tweAKhole, never had issues with input,grafics or other windowsshit

The king is back with a banger, huge support ❤

Thanks so much, this is so well done!

We back? Let's go!

Ohh my lord!!!!! Also to disable the gigabyte app installer in bios its under Advanced- Settings - IO ports

Bro is back, I remember watching this type of videos back in 2019 with my shitty laptop... Dam we getting old

Bro I love the script where it just nukes all bloatware man, this is glorious! also being able to actually destroy Edge, what a relief, and then being able to instantly install Paint, Notepad and Pictures is all I needed, keep doing you Goat!

Amazing work the PS scripts are so nice!

You are so amazing, glad i found you a few years back

yooo...long time no see ya....that sound setup is crisp! Thanks for the video

holy shit i love you, THIS IS SO MUCH KNOWLEDGE FOR FREEEEEEEEEE

you are so UNDERRATED you deserve atleast 1 mill subs, and i tell you why,first everything is reverseble and i like how now you show how to aplly scripts for people who dont have a clue!

Hi Fr33thy I have done most of the optimizations on my PC and it works perfectly the number of fps I gain is still impressive I have been doing your optimizations for years and it has never disappointed me, on this one I I just have a problem when I deactivate Windows security I can't play Valorant because of a problem because the game needs flow control protection and there would be a way to deactivate security on windows while keeping flow control activated via a regedit line or a line to delete in the security.ps1 file?

Sincerely grateful for your hard work ❤

Havent watched the video but appreciate your work 🎉 i know this will have awesome info!

Missed you Chris. Your videos are always invaluable!

Might make a few commits to that repo, very nice man. I can see you didn't copy anyone and made every scripts yourself. Great job

I bought the 10 pro key. Thanks fr33thy/awesome vid.

thank you Chris! this is great.

You're back bless you

absolute legend, best guide ever ! i actually understand what i'm messing with this time 😂

Amazing work like always! Thank you :)

thanks so much! really needed this

Your the goat 🐐 Chris thank you for everything you do I low key miss the a-z

Congratulations on your million views video. I'm pleased I recommend your channel on mine 👍

Hi! Quick problem I just got, the DDU script fetch the version 18.0.7.7 right now, and your script is made for 18.0.7.6, so it mess up things because of its name. So I had to change the version in the script. I'd suggest to try and get either a fix version or get some regex to patch it. Thank you :D

So, following the steps in the video , I successfully get around 10-16% increase of fps and stuttering off. A lot of time for customising for sure. Intel i7 and 6000 mhz ddr5, RTX 3080. Thanks 🙏, Fr33thy for having you!

CS2 Before and after optimization [VProf] FPS: Avg=340.1, P1=160.2 [VProf] FPS: Avg=375.1, P1=171.8 good shit 👌

3 months still relevant, can tell ya even a few years down the line it'll still be relevant
