How to Optimize a Laptop for Gaming

Gaming is a great platform where gamers play games . There are many consoles and devices where we can play games . The major platforms are PlayStation, Xbox , Android and PC . PC gaming includes Desktops and Laptops .

Laptops are different from Desktops from their appearance as well as their performance . In order to provide mobility laptop processors and ram are made sufficiently small (called mobile chipset) . So, the performance are also slightly reduced compared to desktops . Major reason for this difference is the cooling system . Many laptops does not have proper cooling system and ventilation. I will share you some info follow these to improve your gaming performance in your laptop even though yours is not a gaming laptop.

Tweaking CPU :

                           Generally mobile cpus are of two types U series and H series . U refers to ultra low power consumption meanwhile the performance is also low compared to U series . vice versa H series refers to High power consumption meanwhile provides high performance.

At first identify your processor has the ability to overclock . Check your processor in google that it supports overclocking or not . If it supports overclock it in your Bios . If not then unpark it by using Park control Software . Download the park control software click here to download . And enable all tabs and set to 100% . This allows to overclock and boost your CPU's overall performance

Tweaking GPU 

                        Tweaking GPU  is easier than CPUU . First check what GPU have in the taskbar . If you have dedicated GPU such as nVidia or AMD  then it is enough to update the latest drivers in the corresponding website . If you have integrated GPU such as Intel HD Graphics and ATI Radeon . Then you have to sacrifice game's graphics and lower the resolution to improve performance . Intel HD 4000 and above supports great games till 2015 ( Includes GTA V , Valorant , CSGO etc) . Reduce the effects in your windows settings . This helps you to improve the overall performance of your GPU

RAM 

           Improving the ram's speed and performance is based on the type of ram you have if your laptop is manufactured above 2015 then you might have ddr3l or ddr4 . The best way to tweak ram is closing google chrome while gaming as it uses more resource of ram in the background and often clear the ram by memreduct software which allows to clear ram while gaming as well as Editing by pressing ctrl + f1.

Sacrificing :
                   As I mentioned already in order to play games on Integrated GPU PC . Then you might sacrifice the following 

• Graphics of the game - You should play the games in low - mid settings to get at least a playable Frame Rates

• Expecting high frames - If you are playing on low end laptop then stop expecting 60 FPS its playable on 20 Fps too so don't expect more then that might be disappointing.

• Satisfaction of your gameplay - Don't compare your gameplays to high end PC and don't get disappointed . And be satisfied of what you have

Follow all these to Become a Good Low end Gamer . All the Best
