Issue with razer cortex

[Le Pof]

Hi, i wanted to test a game booster, and i found that razer cortex. I've tested many times and i have always the same issue, i start a game from razer cortex, and game improves a lot fps, for example, i tested it with FC4, with ultra settings i have 20-30fps, so i have to play with high settings, so, when i start it from razer cortex, with ultra setting is like 50-60 fps, but, after 2 o 3 minuts, for no reason, fps go down to 20-30. Is like the program stops working, and i dont know why this happens, the same with all other games.
This game booster improves a lot my fps rate, but i dont know why it stops working after a while playing... do you have any idea?

Sorry for my bad english :P and thanks.

Game booster software doesn't actually do much at all, aside from if you have a pretty low amount of RAM(3-4GB).

The only ways to increase performance without changing hardware are quitting programs(to reduce RAM usage on systems with not a lot of it), switching to lower settings, and overclocking.

So, if this program is useless, why im getting that awesome fps rates for this short while, and then im going down?

its killiig background tasks
you can easily do that yourself

Just put FarCry4 on a mix of settings, learn what they do and set them as high as system can handle or to help reach a desired average FPS. DO NOT set any of those in-game options to Ultra unless u have a high-end GPU with at least 3 GB of VRAM. As below this, GPUs lacking VRAM will be bottlenecked in such a game as this when you apply Ultra settings.

Booster apps have nothing to do with FPS; all they help to do is close background apps and free up system RAM. Nothing more.

I have a 3GB VRAM GPU!

So if booster app doesn't have nothing to do with FPS why i'm getting that improvement for this short time?

What's your full system specs & OS?

What are your results like if u do clean bootup and never load up Cortex and just launch FarCry4?

I never tried before to kill all proces and i have to say that i feel the difference, at ultra is like 40fps without booting from cortex, but i get more fps while this short time when cortex is working.

specs:

r9 280x msi
i5 4570 3.2ghz
8gb ram
windows 7
