Hidden Hardware Optimisation

Tweak the Secret Hardware Devices Hidden on Your PC to Boost the Performance of Windows

Most hardware manufacturers expect you to use their devices out of the box, without applying any particular configuration settings. However, if you just use the default hardware settings, your computer will not be performing at its best.

Doing so will give your PC a free performance boost, and also ensure that it runs with greater stability.
