Hiya Terr, Great video, will you be let me know the steps that I need to do to get a transmit buffer size of 1024 as currently it is set to 128. Thank you and keep up the great work.
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4d36e972-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318} go to this registry path and then their should be folders in sequential order starting at 0. Find the folder that has the specific network card properties you are trying to alter. Then open that folder go to Ndi then params then *ReceiveBuffers or *TransmitBuffers (depending on what you want to change). Click on that folder and edit the Value named "Max" this will allow you to change the upper limit for that buffer.
A few things to keep in mind
1) your specific registry names and path for your network card may be slightly different. Feel free to reach out if you can't find the right value to change.
2) Although you can edit the value for buffers there isn't a lot of research into whether going above the drivers normal max amount actually improves performance. As well as if it works the same way on every card. That being said some people have seen improvement increasing the buffer beyond amounts normally allowed by the network driver. So best bet would be to see if you have any noticable difference yourself, but do be wary of placebo.
3) There isn't much literature on buffers and there effects and most of the literature out there is somewhat contradictory and not necessarily always from reputable sources. So although the general consenus is bigger buffers = better, it is possible that may not always be the case or if you read certain article the complete opposite is actually true. So take that with a grain of salt as well and really try to see what works best for you.
Hope that helps if you have any more questions feel free to let me know and if you would like a video made on any specific topic feel free to tell me that as well. Have a nice day!
same, my recieve buffer is 512 but my transmit buffer maximum is stuck on 128
@@terr1985 so uh when i changed the maximum for transmit buffers, it still didnt let me set it to 1028 even though it said that the max was 1028. it didnt let me set it to 129 either, only the default max of 128
@@shorrtX you gotta set ur buffers in the reg to. set the max to 1028 and the current to 1028

Finally someone who can explain at least a bit about why. There are so many people who just make a list without any explanation. Thanks.
this is probably the most helpful video i have ever watched thank you so much

Such a detailed video, thank you, it fixed my realtek ethernet, i had big bufferbloat with even qos but after this video now its 1ms download and 0ms upload.
I didn't even knew you can change transmit buffers to higher than the max in regedit, no one ever explained anything like that in other videos, thanks again, very good video.
I like how you explained everything! Would be also awesome to see in practice, if the ping got lowered or something like jitter got smaller.

Hey Terr, I just wanted confirmation on something. So I have a Ryzen 5800x (8 core CPU) would you recommend 4 or 6 rss queues? I have mine set to 4 right now but will there be much of a difference adding the extra 2 queues? Thanks for the video, super informational!
I doubt it would make much of a difference. That cpu is so fast that its 4 cores will easily handle all network traffic. You could put it to 6 if you feel you need the extra computing power, if you are doing a lot of downloading for example. Otherwise don't sweat it
@@terr1985 hey i kinda have the same question but for the 5800x3d im wondering if the extra queues would help with downloading
Im sure you already know this but you can always copy the folder location in the registry editor and paste it in the description of the video to help people get there all they will have to do is copy it and paste it in the editor and it will bring them there.
I hope you upload more these are really helpful since I'm trying to become a pc tweaker lol

@@terr1985 k thx
Yo Terr, great video, just wanted to ask i dont have the receive side scaling option nor do i have the option for maximum number of rss queues, as i have an i5-13600k and quite a few cores!
Its likely the internet driver. Try to update your internet adapter driver
If you saw the previous comment please disregard it. It turns out the slow down came from an old dongol my ethernet was connected to a long time ago and I forgot about it. I plugged in my ethernet directly followed the changes in the video and now I have decent speeds and consistent lower ping. Thank you for the great video
How much did it speed ur internet
On my old cable internet it helped a lot, especially with latency. Once i used fiber it legit almost didnt make a noticable difference. Im on a wifi extender now and changing settings on that made it a lot more stable. So it kinda all depends really
@@terr1985 Ok, btw when I try to ping google it shows that 1252 is the max MTU size? I have ethernet connection..
can you do a video about Wi-Fi properties you should enable or disable? thank you for the content
Hey there, great video! Quick question: I'm currently in the registry editor trying to increase my transmit buffers (and receive buffers if I can) to 1024 or higher. I'm using another comment as a guide to look for the folder, and I found the 4d36... folder but don't know what is meant by "Find the folder that has the specific network card properties you are trying to alter." Could you elaborate a little please? Thank you so much!
So if you go to your internet settings for the adapter you are using. Whatever settings you can change will exist in the registry. So, say there is the side-scaling, that will exist in the registry so you want to find the folder that has that setting in registry
@@terr1985 So I found the folder (I looked at the driver details and picked "Driver Key" to find it) and changed the values for transmit and receive, still not the greatest ping but I blame my computer for that. The weird thing is that I'm missing a decent number of the options you have like Advanced EEE, Auto Disable Gigabit, Receive Side Scaling, RSS load balancing, NS Offload, and a few others I believe. Are these bad signs? I'm more on the inexperienced side with technical stuff so I'm trying to follow as much as I can with what you have.
Also, is there a way I can tell if I should be using IPv4 or IPv6? My networking tab had almost everything enabled at first, but I'm wondering which of the two I should leave unchecked.
Whether you use ipv4 or 6 isnt really to much to worry ab, it's just a different network address. If you have issues using ipv6 bc of your network configurations or hardware you can turn it off though. The limited options may be due to your hardware or an outdated driver, I would try to find the newest driver and if it still doesnt have options you could add them and see if they work; they likely won't since the hardware may not support them.
How did you tweak transmit buffers in registry edit because I tried and it did not let me change my 128 transmit speed in Ethernet settings.
How did you change the capacity of your transmit buffer?
Hi, I run nvidie with 11700H cpu, my transmit is stuck and 128 and im worried if i have broken my stystem, i do a lot of tampering with settings like such. Why wont it go higher, i looked at your comment below but cant find the right path in my folders.
Nice one.. Thank you
hey, Should i have Recv Segment Coalescing (IPv4) and (IPv6) disabled or enabled
This is probably the best video I've seen explaining all these settings. So sad that some people will run away because of the length of the video, but this is one convinced me the most. Gonna test these settings today on a stream. One thing, lately, when using NDI on OBS, I get random packet loss/bursts on my computer, to the point im convinced its CPU lag spikes. Do you have any recommendation on this issue?
Thanks in advance.
Sounds like cpu usage forsure if you got a good gpu change the video encoding from software to hardware
Do you have network throttling enabled?
I don't have that setting myself. However, judging from the name it seems best to have it disabled. You don't want to throttle the network that would decrease performance.
@@terr1985 You can disable that setting in registry or tcp optimiser, network throttling slows down your speed so it uses less bandwidth
@@TestBench3 Sorry just now seeing this. If it is a setting in tcp optimizer it will only be useful for tcp protocols. Since modern videogames are run using the udp protocol it will have no effect on network performance.
Hi, so what if your on a laptop and have a realtek wireless but not family controller? Thanks
Very nice brother, just finished doing and gonna try now... some settings don't show up to me, soo i skipped.
Hi. would just like to know something regarding adding rss queues in the regeditor. what would the recommended amount be to add if i have 16 cores however, it's 8 eco cores and 8 performance cores? As well as the recommended amount of recieve/transfer buffers in my advanced ethernet properties if i have 32gb memory(RAM if thats the memory you're referring to) also for more info, i have an msi z690 pro ddr5 MB
and an intel 13700k cpu
Prolly just add 4 queues and max out the buffers. If your card doesnt support rss tho it might not work even if you add it to registry
XD, that burp, do you have any insights for mobile hotspot? I use phone tethering through usb because my internet provider is really bad, thanks!
That is a tough situation, my heart goes out to you. Best thing I can think of is make sure in phone settings "tethering hardware acceleration" is turned on. Make sure the usb is plugged into a 3.0 or higher port for better transfer speeds. Also, if the cable isn't one that supports fast charging I would get that bc it will have fast transfer rates too. Other than that, hook up a satellite disk to your phone??😅😅, not sure; there isn't to terribly much you can do in that scenario. I wish you the best of luck!
I know this video is old but how do you change your transmit buffers to a higher value using registry in Windows? I would really love to know. My current values are rather low in my opinion for 1 gig internet. Thanks
Check out the pinned comment. It explains everything. Hope that helps😁
HEY I HAVE A QUESTION, HOW DO YOU INCREASE YOUR TRANSFER BUFFERS?
I have 32gb of ram what should I put Receive buffers on?
in my adapter properties it says jumbo packet, not jumbo frame, no drop down menu, just a text field and it says values are to be between 1514 to 9014, should I just put it as low as possible or is there a way to disable it if its the same as jumbo frame? Tried to google it with various different wordings but it just kept coming back to the option of disabling it with a drop down menu in this advanced tab, thanks and cheers
ever get an answer for this i have same thing
hey i was wondering do i need more rss queues and why?
Hi Terr do you have other socials or anything to connect on? Seem very knowledgeable and curious if you share any info elsewhere.
No, I really don't like social media so I don't have any accounts
do you do payed optimisations? i want to overclock my cpu (ryzen 9 5900x and gpu (3080ti) but id rather someone more knowledgeable done it than me, anyway please keep posting videos man :)
Yeah I'd be happy to do payed optimizations
Finally some who knows what he's talking about !
When it comes to interrupt moderation , my mouse feels snappier on enabled with either medium or adaptive(haven’t done enough testing to see which ones better), but disabled seems to have better hit reg in game but mouse is clunkier and input laggy so it’s sort of a trade of. If anyone wants to touch on this subject
It's only a tradeoff when you have old cpu/too few cores for other tasks. Disabled is for lowest latency.
@@lunatik6168 I have a 10900k
so is it better Disabled or Enabled ?
There is a lot of nuance in these settings. In theory more interrupts means better latency. However, in reality this is not always the case; either the network card or cpu is not able to handle the increased amount of interrupts, and limiting how many interrupts occur can improve performance. Additionally if your network card and cpu can handle more interrupts, limiting the interrupt count will reduce performance. Everyone's setup is different, so it is never a "one setting fix all" unfortunately. Hope this helps😊
ping is distance between you and other computer(server), how these settings can lower distance?
Good video brother definitely gonna try these out again. What's the way to revert the network adapter settings in case someone runs into any problems ? Uninstall device on device manager and rediscover ? Also is ipv6 not needed/better for gaming in general ? I mainly play valo.
There should be a button to revert to default settings. Not all drivers have them, if you don't have that option you can find the drivers for your network adapter online. Download those drivers and keep them on your pc. Uninstall the drivers in device manager, and reinstall them through the download. Ipv6 doesn't help in terms of speed, it was a protocol designed to help resolve the decreasing number of available ip addresses.
@@terr1985 Thanks for your answer brother appreciate it! Honestly trying to resolve mouse issues I've been having lately and been trying almost everything I can find.
Make sure your mouse is plugged into the usb ports closest to your motherboard (not ones near your power button on the case). Make sure your hertz is set to 1k (4k and 8k will be smoother but can cause performance issues in games). Also a higher dpi has been shown to decrease latency. However, it is by a fairly small margin and anything above 4000 dpi makes no difference in latency.
@@terr1985 I'm currently using the 3.2 usb ports on the mobo,hz set on 1000 and dpi on 800.
Mouse sens issues have been happening for a while and I'm close to giving up honestly.
@@user-py1di1bt7l Do you have enchanced precision turned off in mouse settings? Also your cpu is heavily involved in handling mouse and keyboard interrupts. If your cpu is bottlenecked, too slow, or too hot (which will decrease performance); you can run into issues with your mouse and or keyboard. It could also be the mouse itself. What sort of issues are you experiencing?
How do i get transmit buffers from 128 to 1024?
Could you do a video on wireless adapter optimization? Ive been randomly getting ping spikes from 40 ms up to 500ms on overwatch and it makes the game unplayable. Ive looked through multiple videos on the wireless settings and nothing helped. Im really terrible at this any info would help.
The settings are so random for wireless adapters, some are completely limited in settings and others have the same settings as ethernet adapters. My best advice would be too use 5ghz wifi if you can, and potentially look into a better adapter if things still persist. Definitely look up the adapter model first online, it may just need the manufacturer drivers to run correctly. Also tp-link/linksys is total trash, I have adapters and such from that company and I always have issues.
@@terr1985 thanks man, appreciate it.
same here brother, did you fix it? my pnig spikes to 700-800 in games
Sorry to Necro. But I only have Interrupt Moderation, Network Address, Priority Vlan, Receive and Transmit Buffers, Speed and Duplex listed in Advanced...
Power Management is not a tab either.
Did a recent update hide the settings?
The options are based off your network card settings, try updating your drivers for them
@@terr1985 Got it now. Had to go to my mobos website and update the driver from there.
Hi, Would you be able to do a payed internet optimisation for me?
hmm ok but youre ping is dependant on the reception and reply or resend of the remote server and networks

Thank you for the video, do you recommend any other guides?
Im not sure who is really popular in this space rn. It doesnt garner a lot of views so most people don't bother even getting into it. Also there is an awful lot of misinformation out there as well. The only person ik that did a lot of in depths guides was fr33thy but he had a lot of backlash from fans or something like that and took down a ton of his videos.
Hi, im so bad with computers and internet but im just trying to make my ping issues better. This video helps! for the MTU step at the end, it told me I need to run as administrator so nothing happened when i pressed enter. Also, I saw something else where they told me to change my user interface metric value from automatic to a set number. I did that and I was wondering if that is worth it or not, and also how do I find the actually user interface value for my computer since I'm not 100% sure I found it or not but I still put the number in anyways, Thank you so much, internet things are so confusing to me so an answer in dumb terms would help so much!

It is likely just your driver. Make sure your ethernet/wifi adapter driver is fully up to date. Its also possible the hardware is very basic and doesnt support that setting. I promise you arent the only one that doesnt have it. Two other people also asked me ab the same issue. There is a way to add it in registry but if the hardware doesnt support it no difference will be made.
@@terr1985 oh alright that makes sense thank you for the google ping part that part really helped
my lenovo legion 5i pro has been having issues with internet, especially in games, every now and then the internet would suddenly get slower (and the problem isn't my wi-fi). So I tried updating the intel wi-fi driver (and yes, I downloaded it from the official intel website), after that the problem got worse, now it's bad in general (not only in gaming), the internet might be fast for 5 minutes and then suddenly it would get slow again, it's almost as if the computer chooses whenever the internet will be fast, medium or slow, because the speed is always fluctuating and at different times, I have tried watching some videos and tried a lot of things to fix it, the results made the maximum internet speed better but did not fix the fluctuation of the speed. Any advice? I wonder if uninstalling the intel wi-fi driver and reinstalling it would make it better, I'm so worked up I need help, I don't know what else to do. The last step in this video was confusing to me
I would recommend changing the settings within your router. It might be beneficial to turn off one ghz band (either 5ghz or 2.4) depending on how close you are to the router. That may help the flucuations as the router can save some cpu power and be more stable.
@@terr1985 it's not a problem with the router. But I've tried something that really helped: deleting the wi-fi driver and updating it again, and resetting the BIOS to default settings

Did you ever find out how to? I have the same problem.
so bro if my mtu its 1362 the right way its 1362+28? so i need put in the mtu 1390?
Yes, as long as it isnt fragmenting at 1362 you are good to put 1390
RSS had to be disabled for certain Windows NT 2003-era NIC drivers that would corrupt packets when the new (at that time) RSS feature was enabled.
thank you great video :)
i didnt understand, you talk that we dont want to see the 100% packet loss in the mtu check to google server and we need to set the lowest possible value but you set 1500
can you explain a bit about mtu? What should i set if 1492 1500 value have the 100% packet loss
You want the lowest number that has no fragmentation, then add 28 to that number and you have the number that you set your mtu to.
If my Receive Buffer max value is 512, and I set my Transmit Buffer to double = 1024, but my max possible value for Transmit Buffer is 4096. Should I increase Transmit for maximum value or leave it just double of Receive Buffer since I cannot go over 512?
I would say set it max and try it out. It may help hit reg bc you are sending more to the server. Idk tho, tbh I hate messing with the buffers, sometimes the nic card freaks out, or the game server freaks out. Also if your network spikes a lot stuff gets weird. I would say if you wanna play around with it just change to what feels best in game. Don't focus on the numbers or the "theory" behind it so much; bc depending on your network and the game all that could be thrown right out the window.
@@terr1985 Thank you!

good solutions in case you need to restore default settings w/o having to full reset pc:
Create windows backup right before you change them, revert to backup if it makes it worse.
Record in OBS studio as you change things in settings. That way you can watch what you changed and change them back.
Uninstalling and reinstalling wifi drivers will reset all settings to default. (You need to make sure you have your wifi driver setup exe downloaded first, before uninstalling.
How to edit transmit buffers in registry editor?
I pinned the comment of someone else asking this😁😁😁. You'd be suprised how much i get asked😅😅.
Hey i want to change the transfer and receive buffers to the highest possible how can i do this ?
The pinned comment explains how to do it.
i got no power management option?
How many queues if you have 24 cores
These things did help my ping although in new games such as mw2, I had to do port forwarding and all of that. Even though my ping in game is 60-70 I still sort of teleport around while running in game. Very uncomfortable. Is that due to my internet plan being 15 down, 3 up? It’s basically all that is available for me.
Yeah sadly those speed are really slow and definitely throttle your connection. Not to much you can do on the software side to fix that
@@terr1985 I’m not sure if it would be any worth the extra 15 bucks a month to upgrade to 25 down 5 up. What do you think? It could be a minor improvement but doubting it would stop the glitchy network lag I get
Yeah save the money, its not enough of an increase to see a difference. Techincally if you look at the network statistics in game you can see most the time its only sending kilobytes of packets a second. So even 10 megabytes should be enough. But when you factor in bandwidth size on the router interface between it and your pc, whether you have dsl, cable, or fiber. All those things contribute to the speed of your communication w the game server. Is weird you get 60 ping but still lag around. Do you use ethernet or wireless connection?
@@terr1985 it’s Ethernet and I’m the only device running on it. Wish I knew why warzone and call of duty’s have me lagging like that when other games don’t. I’m wondering if it’s a hardware upgrade I’m needing ? I’m using a cat 6
@@AnthrixOfficial So just keep in mind, that "lagging" & micro stutters in game can easly be confused as an internet issue.....but in reality if your Thread count isnt set properly in MW 2, that will more than likely fix majority (if not all) of your issues. @Terr can prob explain 1000% better than i can lol. Good luck buddy, and i hope that fixes it for you!!
Should I. Do these if i play on wifi too not Ethernet?
Yeah, you'll have less of these options for wifi but changing the ones you can will still help.
Does this have any chance of breaking something? I did this and after a few hours my pc suddenly crashed and now it won't turn on anymore, no lights or sounds at all anymore.. I only recently bought a new high quality psu
Most of the settings changed are fairly safe. Only thing i can think of that would cause a crash like that would be using MSI utility tool and setting something to MSI mode when it doesnt support it
@@terr1985How do we know what our pc does/doesn’t support with msi mode so that we know if we should proceed with the msi tweak or not
You can look up the parts to see if they support it. Really i would prolly only put your gpu in msi mode, if it supports it. If something does crash you can reset it with a windows media creation usb, also known as a usb bootable windows iso. This will fully reset the pc tho so you really needa backup all your data ahead of time
i found MTU 1372 as lower one with no pocket loss is that normal?
I don't see it often. Maybe your ISP, or wireless card is effecting it. As long as your packets aren't fragmenting you'll be fine. Higher MTU is better for packet throughput, it's so close to 1500 though i doubt you'll be able to even see a difference.
Your video was a life saver man, is there anyway to contact you for some additional help? Easier to talk on twitter or Discord!
Don't leave it on auto negotiation for speed & duplex. you'd think it would autonegotiate but it doesnt really do it well. just leave it on the highest possible your Lan Adapter supports.
how do you know that?
@@nonukas321 i have fiber optic 1GB Symetrical(up&down). 1500MTUS in my gateway and in my local System(PC). When i don't have it on 1GB Full it goes below that treshold like say 300mb. meaning its negotiating based on the task that you're doing. Just leave it on 1GB all the time and you should be good gang. Also on windows your CPU is limiting your network usage so auto neg option wont really help much unless you have the setting changed. in Regedit i have it set too 100% CPU usage and i thought my CPU performance would go stupid and bottom out but actually i guess network doesnt really impact it all that much as i thought it would so my internet is crazy stable
In device manager it shows that my usb intel 3.1 only has one IRQ? Ure shows 8. Something wrong ?
No you're all good
Thanks@@terr1985
my transmit buffer is stuck at 128 max and my recieve is 512, i replaced the network adapter but still hasnt allowed me to go to 1024, wtf do i do?
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4d36e972-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318} go to this registry path and then their should be folders in sequential order starting at 0. Find the folder that has the specific network card properties you are trying to alter. Then open that folder go to Ndi then params then *ReceiveBuffers or *TransmitBuffers (depending on what you want to change). Click on that folder and edit the Value named "Max" this will allow you to change the upper limit for that buffer.
A few things to keep in mind
1) your specific registry names and path for your network card may be slightly different. Feel free to reach out if you can't find the right value to change.
2) Although you can edit the value for buffers there isn't a lot of research into whether going above the drivers normal max amount actually improves performance. As well as if it works the same way on every card. That being said some people have seen improvement increasing the buffer beyond amounts normally allowed by the network driver. So best bet would be to see if you have any noticable difference yourself, but do be wary of placebo.
3) There isn't much literature on buffers and there effects and most of the literature out there is somewhat contradictory and not necessarily always from reputable sources. So although the general consenus is bigger buffers = better, it is possible that may not always be the case or if you read certain article the complete opposite is actually true. So take that with a grain of salt as well and really try to see what works best for you.
Hope that helps if you have any more questions feel free to let me know and if you would like a video made on any specific topic feel free to tell me that as well. Have a nice day!
@@terr1985 tysm, i do this in reg editor?
@@lordmark4966 yes
@@terr1985 Hi I did this but did not to seem find the params folder so im pretty much stuck here, please help
why arp offload off?
when I reduce mtu, the loss in cs go jumps by 1-2%, why is this happening? and with a decrease in the value of mtu, the ping, on the contrary, increases
The MTU isnt matching the router, best bet would be to set it to 1500 and see what happens. It's the standard MTU for most everything in modern technology, if that still doesnt work than test to find your correct MTU. I can almost guarantee it's 1500 tho
Any fix for packet loss issue in games
Turn up your transmit and recieve buffers and use an ethernet cable are the best solutions. Otherwise switch isp if possible
Yo, bro. How do i reset them all to default? Because i changed almost every setting like a year ago and i myself don't know what i changed.
Easiest way would be to find your internet card model. System Info in windows will show you that. Then download the driver for it from the oem website, then go to device manager in windows uninstall the driver for your network card and then run the install for the new drivers that you downloaded
Do all those steps in that order, otherwise you risk removing the driver and losing wifi on your pc, without the new one you wont be able to access the internet to download it.
@@terr1985 thanks bro. U should do a tut about it, im sure many need want to reset them.
Good idea, I have a bunch of video ideas that I wanna put out. It's just ab pushing myself to do it. I get nervous when making videos, just not super social so I usually dread putting them out. On the flip side I really wanna share the knowledge and help people from digging for it like I did.
I cannot find a download for the MSI utility v3, any help with this?
www.mediafire.com/file/ewpy1p0rr132thk/MSI_util_v3.zip/file You have to download the tool from there. Last time i downloaded it i ran it through virus total and it showed up fine. However, i dont own these sites and the file contents could be tampered by the owners at any time. It is unlikely malicious but id drop it in virustotal after unzipping to see if its ok to run. Honestly a good idea to do that before running any executable on your machine.
@@terr1985 Hi thanks for replying so quick, the link says the website cannot be reached. Could it be an expired link?
Yeah probably, i just copied and pasted the reply from someone who asked the same question a while back. Ik the program was built by a single person but they never put it on github so they may have had to host the download site themselves. That can get expensive after a while.
@@terr1985 Ahhhh i see.. okay no worries thanks for your help!
Of course
for the RSS queues, it didnt have any sort of option refering the queues or RSS
Some drivers dont, there is a way to add it to the registry but its unlikely to work if the network card doesnt support it
i love you so much
Do these steps actually reduce ping in games? Anyone got any results to share? Just wondering if its worth messing around with it
did u test it?
@@Cnlne not tested it yet but done similar tweaks in the past and noticed no result or ping changes in counter strike
Hey, i am on the realtek gaming 2,5gbe gaming ethernet family controller and there on MsiUtil a default limit is set to 16 and max limit 32 should i drop the numbers to 1 and 4 like you have ?
No if your drivers support more interrupts that is a good thing. I just cant set mine any higher than 4 (which is my default) without having huge lag spikes.
what are your view on dns servers though?
Changing dns server won't help with multi-player games. I can go into detail y if you would like but the main takeaway is it has negligible effects.
@@terr1985 thanks :) btw do you have any mouse to game end latency reduction thing?
Disable power saving on your mouse. Make sure you are at the highest allowed polling rate and a higher dpi does provide better latency. Beyond that it comes down to how fast your cpu can handle the game plus the data and interrupts it receives from the mouse. As sad as it is sometimes it just comes down to better hardware.
@@terr1985 true, but how can polling rate effects the mouse so you mean to say 8k dpi better then 1000?
You got dpi and polling rate mixed up. So polling rate is how fast the computer communicates w the mouse (this is the 1000hz or 8khz etc). The dpi is dots per inch and is generally default set to 400 or 800 on your mouse. Changing it to somewhere in the 2000 dpi area decreases latency and this effect doesn't get any better at around 4k dpi.
how many rss ques if got 2 core 4 thread?
Set it to 2. You only have enough cores to handle two queues.
