Our objective is to spend money wisely on PC and get the best performance at the lowest cost. We will not proceed immediately to the selection of a new computer or components, the purchase of all at once can lead to unnecessary costs. Problems with low performance in games arise from a variety of reasons. Therefore, our way we will start with the optimization of the OS and software cleaning PC.
If you are an experienced user then you can skip this publication!
The methods listed below will not make your computer more productive than it was, but only return its performance to its original state. If you are a competent user and well followed your PC the maximum that you can get by doing the manipulation below is improved responsiveness and speed of the OS. Only a new video card driver can raise FPS, a patch that brings optimization to the game or a remote hidden miner with a couple of Trojans can raise the number of frames.
Well lets get started! First of all, pay attention to the version and type of Windows. For best performance, use Windows 10 (x64), Windows 8.1 (x64), or Windows 7(x64).
Bit depth (x64) allows the OS to use more than 4 GB of RAM. Most new programs and games run on (x64) bit systems only.
If you decide to reinstall the OS, first of all you need to know what drivers are available for your OS and motherboard. To find out the model of your motherboard, enter the command in cmd " wmic baseboard get product". When you find out the model, look for the drivers for it. In rare cases, the motherboard has several revisions, respectively, for each revision of the motherboard has its own drivers. Revision can be viewed only, opening the PC cover.
From myself I can recommend Windows 10 (1909). In the first place because of the relevance, increased safety, and programmatic support to DXR.
DXR is a technology that allows you to support ray tracing in a new line of graphics cards from Nvidia).
To reinstall you need a flash drive from 8 GB and the official utility from Microsoft Windows 10 Media Creation Tool it will help to easily make a bootable USB flash drive and record an official image on it Windows 10 (1909). be careful the program will remove all your files from the flash drive!!!
Remember before reinstalling you need to save all the necessary files and keys and software licenses, as they can be deleted!!!
After reinstallation of OC install necessary drivers from the official website. Do not use driver packs and third-party sites!!
Which way you would not go in any case cost a little to optimize the OS.
1) Disable unnecessary visual effects (I usually leave that on only 2 points).
2) Remove CFG Win 10 protection (this lowers the protection against exploits, but significantly increases the speed of the Windows interface)
If your computer is often viruses and advertising recommend not to disable this component of protection.
3) Uninstall unused programs.
4) Disable background work of unnecessary programs Win 10 settings--->Privacy--->
5) Remove unnecessary programs from startup ctrl+alt+delete ---> task manager
6) Free up space on the disk where the operating system is installed.
7)Antivirus. This is my favorite item because many users are worth a few pieces at once. If you are in doubt about what to choce, then all is simple.Leave the one in which the license is paid, if both antiviruses are free or not activated, then I recommend removing both and installing Bitdefender free or Kaspersky free (I recommend registering and logging in to your accounts so that you are not disturbed by notifications). Also a good option is a built-in antivirus in Win 10. I have been using these products on different PCs for a long time and they satisfy me in all respects.There are other good anti-virus products, but they are often full of ads and a bunch of annoying notifications. Below I left a comparative table of the site PC MAG for free antivirus and a link to articles on paid and free products.
Сomparison table from the PC MAG website:
Microsoft Defender isn't bad, but it's still not enough to fully protect your PC. You don't have to pay extra, though. We’ve tested and ranked the top free antivirus apps.
Without antivirus, your personal information, your data, and even your bank account are at risk. We've tested more than 40 utilities to help you pick the top antivirus software for your needs.

You can still turn off services, telemetry, and more, but it will not give a tangible increase and speed. At the same time, it is possible to disable the necessary components for the proper operation of Windows. Therefore, at this stage, I propose to complete the optimization process.
Friends, we really need help with the correct translation! If it's not difficult for you, please suggest corrections.
