I mean, if the computer is loaded down with junk...it could help.

I finally get to reply to your thread for once in my life the answer is if you are having trouble with fps/ping you should look into upgrading because if youre not at 60fps you obviously have some cheap computer that was from the dollar store No need to thank me Im a wizard when it comes to computers

why it take so long to reply my br0? have u been waiting to or something

and my ping is not normally that bad, but i have quite a few things connected to it. last time i deleted a bunch of stuff, the ping went down from about 200 to 80 so im hoping this will bring it down to 40 or something but idk if thats how it works. when i go on that ookla speed tester thing it shows 25 ping normally or around their but i go into a csgo match and its always 60+ :/
im saving up for a new build atm to completely replace this one but hopefully i wont need to get some more internet too :3

btw thank you computer wizard

I used to have a garbage Toshiba pc I played csgo on when I got new wifi it really improved toshiba pcs are NOT for gaming so it may be more of an internet issue than a computer one

im pretty sure its okay. it normally shows about 11 upload and 4 download or something with about 25-30 ping. its just that when i go into csgo its like 60-80 ping unless it wants to crush me with 100+

Deleting stuff off of your PC doesn't improve your ping. The only way to improve that is to get a better internet connection.

Removing bloatware might help your framerates, though.

I don't think it will affect your ping but it could affect FPS and general use.

I would do a complete format and reinstall instead of all the various cleaning tools out there. Its easier, its 'cleaner' and less to learn.
