It's not a rare pearl, magic either, this wont work for everyone either just for the simple fact that not everyone is fortunate enough to be able to afford the hardware, with that being said, if you have an EVGA card download NvidiaInspector, open the profiles and select a pre selected game (I used Battlefield 4) as the base it has an sli profile to work off of, copy the profile/save it and start tweaking the settings according to what your machine can handle but also kill the fps limiter. not everyone can use the same pre-installed profiles to work off of, all machines are different all hardware is different, ex. (you and I purchase identical CPU's, yours might clock to 4.7g and remain stable where as mine might only clock to 4.3 and often, (I just won the silicone lottery) each machine will be limited by the individual hardware installed (Bottle necking) to help control this (latency) you need to open your hardware, overclock the cpu until its stable, overclock the ram until its stable, make sure you mobo bios is up to date (or in my case I prefere and older bios for mine as it is more stable in overclocking) depending on what you have installed make sure you have a stable and strong power supply, I have the EVGA Supernova 1300 G 80+ because my previous cards were the kpe's and clocked they drew 500w ea. you also need to open the Nvidia control panel and make adjustments there, I turn off Vsync because the game has it also and I dont need them competing to kill my fps. you have to play around with the settings based on your hardware no two are the same, did I mention you have to overclock, overclock everything. watch your temps though. cards included. even the gtx 1080 fe which is oc from the factory, I pushed both of mine higher. That should help with your individual machine side latency latency, but keep in mind that the hardware you have installed might still bottleneck you if its just off the shelf type. there are other OS settings can can improve your exerience also but one thing at a time. I have notice that most people do not have an optimal ISP, for various reasons (cant afford/bandwidth not provided in their area and so on) there are fixes for that as well (to a point) if you are in an area that only offers around 250 mb or lower service, this will help, most dont realize that Microsoft has a 20% lock on your incoming bandwidth for their own use, so you are only getting 80% at the best of times and less when they decide to download updates, (this usually will not work on stripped down versions of the OS, you will need PRO or higher, but you can try with anything under. Go to start type 'GPEDIT.MSC" Administrative Templates, Network, QoS Packet Scheduler, open Limit reserve bandwidth, change the setting to 100% and save, now on Win 10 some will tell you that it no longer applies, thats not true either, if the radial is ticked in "Not Configured" its going to steal your bandwidth also, you will still need to set to 100%, click ENABLED, ok, close, now you can use 100% of your bandwidth, other minor tweaks can be made from "SERVICE.MSC"to alter other progs leaching bandwidth, some of the biggest issues with servers hosting games is the (lag/latence/rubber banding) people blaming them for individual poor performance, while that is partially true in a small way, there are work arounds, now hosted servers will not use any of the open DNS's out there for obvious reasons, but that does not prevent you from using one thereby by passing your IPS DNS which is always a large bottleneck, I change mine depending on the country hosting the server I am going to join "http://pcsupport.about.com/od/tipstricks/a/free-public-dns-servers.htm" make the changes to your Ipv4, Ipv6 in your network and settings. dont comment on Ipv6 its not just wireless anymore, I have a 1 gig download, my router coming off my modem is 1 gig also and combine the two for improved performance/stability/lower jitter and (0) ZERO packet loss. my wi-fi pushes out at about 780 mb, anyways, once you change you DNS to an open DNS your speed will increase and latency will drop, back to the server thing, rubber banding will always be unavoidable at times because others will cause it to happen, not because of their internet speed, but because of their jitter, to online game you only need a max 1.5 mb persistent connection, everything else is used only for downloads. did I mention router? make sure you have a good router, spend a little extra now to save heartache later. or if you prefer switches make sure it is managed, not un-managed. dont forget to OC everything or you will be trying to push a bus with a tricycle. where was I....... oh yea, I have noticed that Elite Dangerous has a memory leak that varies from time to time, here is a fix for that, infact this will fix it for every game you play and other progs that leak also. open note pad and paste this " [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\TimeBroker]"Start"=dword:00000003
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\SysMain]
"DisplayName"="Superfetch"
"Start"=dword:00000003
"Save to your desktop as all files, rename to fixmemory, reboot you machine the file extension name will change from .txt to "Registration Entries, you can move it to your Documents folder and forget about it, as it has written its self, just dont delete it.
other tweaks to help with latency issues and low fps/load times and more, if you have an SSD dont add a cache, install another spin up drive, doesnt have to be huge, 100g is fine because you will be setting your system cache on that drive, I have an 80 gig cache ,thats the only thing I use that drive for, I have 32 g of system memory that it compliments, I also use one of the enb progs to force my system to use 10 g of system mem for games dedicated. if you are recording game play its best to have you save files on the same drive as the game .exe, if not you will experience lag and low fps, and yes some capture software is better than others, I use Xsplit, works well with Intel CPU's without running usage up to 70, 80, 90%, the only way you can improve on performance over an SSD is with a Pcie SSD, an example would be HyperX, but they are kinda spendy. and you have to have extra Pcie x 16 slots to use, which reminds me, most basic mobos have 3 to 4 Pcie slots but heres the catch only no. 1 is x 16, no. 2 x 8, no. 3 x4, make sure if your going to sli that at least two of the slots are x16 and support sli in x16 or one card will run x16 with the other x8 reducing performance. theres my two cents, more like a quarter, see how this works for you and let me know, when you are ready to start tweaking sli profiles with NvidiaInspector I can help you with that if you like, but results will vary and take time this is just a work around until the game creators work sli profiles into their games.
