Tips & Tricks6

Good 1% Lows

1% low FPS drops to 98 FPS, frame drops below 144Hz cause visible stuttering. Ryzen 7 260 w/ Radeon 780M Graphics usage at 68% is the bottleneck.

Moderate CPU Usage

CPU usage hit 68% while GPU sat at 31%. Your GPU has headroom, close background apps or lower settings to increase FPS.

Hot CPU Temp

CPU peaked at 86°C, thermal throttling detected. Use a cooling pad, clean air vents, or undervolt the CPU.

Critical RAM Usage

RAM usage peaked at 99% of 16 GB. Close background apps to free up memory, or upgrade to more RAM.

Single Channel RAM

RAM is running in single channel mode, halving memory bandwidth. Install a second stick to enable dual channel for a significant FPS boost, especially in CPU-limited games.

Outdated GPU Driver

GPU driver is 8 months old (version 591.59, 2025-12-11). Update to the latest driver for bug fixes, game optimizations, and potential FPS improvements.
