In today’s video, I’m going to show you the best settings in Windows 11
to speed up and optimize performance for gaming,
as well as make your PC faster and lower ping in any game!
Hey! What's Up? I’m Victor and welcome to another video of this channel!
Before showing the settings, I recommend you to continue in this video
only if you know how to reinstall your Windows,
in case there is any problem caused by those settings.
And you will make those at your own risk,
and I am not responsible for any problems.
First, you’re going to check the integrity of the system files of your Windows 11.
To do that, search for “Command Prompt” in the Start Menu.
Then, right-click on the corresponding option,
select “Run as Administrator” and then click on “Yes”.
Now, copy this command on the description below.
After that, right-click on the command prompt to paste and then press “Enter”.
When the process is complete, type “sfc /scannow” and then press “Enter”.
And lastly, wait for this verification to finish and then close the Command Prompt.
Now, you’re going to modify the DNS server and clear the
DNS cache in Windows 11, to lower ping in your games.
First, open the settings.
Now, select the section “Network & Internet” and then click on “Ethernet”.
After that, click on “Edit” under “DNS Server Assignment”.
Then, select “Manual” and enable the option “IPv4”.
In “Preferred DNS”, type “1.1.1.1” and in “Preferred DNS Encryption”,
select “Encrypted Only (DNS over HTTPS)”.
In “Alternate DNS”, type “8.8.8.8” and in “Alternate DNS Encryption”,
select “Encrypted Only (DNS over HTTPS)”.
And then, click on “Save”.
Now, open the Command Prompt as administrator again.
And lastly, type “ipconfig /flushdns” and press “Enter” to clear the DNS cache.
Now, you’re going to modify three options in Windows 11 to improve performance for gaming.
First, search for “Game Mode” in the Start Menu and then select “Game Mode Settings”.
Now, make sure this option is enabled, otherwise enable it.
And then, click on “Graphics”.
Now, search for your game in the field “Search this list” and then click on it.
After that, click on “Options”, select “High Performance” and then click on “Save”.
Now, search for “Control Panel” in the Start Menu and then select the corresponding option.
Under “View by:”, select “Category”.
Now, click on “Hardware and Sound” and then “Power Options”.
And lastly, select the power plan “High Performance”.
Now, you’re going to clear the temporary files on your Windows 11.
First, press “Windows” and “R” on the Desktop.
In the field “Open”, type “temp” and then click “OK”.
Now, select all these files by pressing “Ctrl” + “A”.
And then delete all of them by pressing “Shift” + “Delete” and clicking on “Yes”.
Maybe, some files cannot be deleted because they are open in some program.
So, just check the option “Do This for All Current Items” and then click on “Skip”.
Now, search for “%temp%” and click on “OK”.
Then, select all files and delete all of them.
After that, search for “Prefetch” and click on “OK”.
And lastly, delete all these files.
And I recommend cleaning the temporary files at least once a week.
Now, you’re going to do the defragmentation process if you
use an HDD or the optimization process if you use an SSD,
to avoid fragmented files from causing performance issues in your Windows 11.
First, download and install “Defraggler” by using the link on the description below.
After installing, open Defraggler.
In the list of drives, select “Local Disk (C:)”.
Then, in the lower corner, click on “Defrag” if you use an HDD, or “Optimize” if you use an SSD.
Now, click on “Yes” in this warning.
And lastly, you must wait for the process to finish.
And that was the video!
