Cool Trick To Improve NVIDIA Graphics Card Performance

[africanos23]

"A Reddit user has discovered a neat little tick that could potentially increase frame rates of NVIDIA GeForce users. The user discovered that disabling the “NVIDIA Streaming” Windows service (which is set up to start automatically and always run) will result in a 3-5% frame-rate increase. "

NVIDIA has updated us via twitter letting us know that this only affects a small number of systems and they will be rolling out a fix very soon.

Nice

I gained 3 frames on GTA 5, hardly noticeable on my 144hz screen but it is a gain nonetheless.

I can see it now 'Nvidia releases new Ultron driver gains of 5% are seen across the board!'

My exact thoughts.

"Disabling all Nvidia related processes you can gain up to triple the FPS in games"

Titan X = GTX980 Quad-SLI

Depends what your frame rate was before, if it was 10fps that's quite a gain!

Yup, almost a 3rd more performance lol.

Couldn't see it in my services but then I remembered I only install the graphics driver and physx driver anyway so I don't have all the other nonsense that Nvidia wants us to have.

Same here.

I use Shadowplay occasionally.

I'll just re-enable the service next time I want to use it.

Someone should do a 'before' and 'after' Heaven 4.0 run.

I wish.

Which reminds me I have got to get my quad 980s back in a PC in the next few days.

Didn't think of doing that

I don't bother with GFE either.

Driver and physx for me.
