In a situation where it is required to increase the performance of a computer without resorting to installing new hardware, it is recommended to change the parameters of the processor and RAM. Typically these devices are configured in the BIOS menu.
Instructions
Step 1
Turn on your computer and wait for the operating system to load. Check the status of the RAM. To do this, open the start menu and go to the control panel. Now open the "System and Security" item and select the "Administration" menu.
Step 2
Run the Windows Memory Checker program. Confirm restarting the computer and wait for the RAM parameters testing to complete. Now restart your computer again and hold down the Del key. After entering the BIOS menu, open the item that allows you to change the parameters of the central processor and RAM.
Step 3
First, increase the voltage supplied to the RAM strips. This will prevent an abnormal shutdown of the computer. Now find the four memory timings. Select the fourth item and decrease its value by 0.5. Now apply the new RAM parameters by selecting Save & Exit.
Step 4
After starting the operating system, repeat the procedure for checking the status of the RAM. If the test did not reveal any errors, repeat the process of entering the BIOS menu. Decrease the value of the indicator of the third item by one. Repeat the algorithm for decreasing timings and checking the state of the RAM until the testing program detects errors.
Step 5
Increase the voltage applied to the RAM cards periodically. If you need to further increase the performance of the RAM, then adjust the bus frequency. Usually this indicator is located above the timing values. Increase the bus frequency by 20-30 Hz. If the program for testing the state of the RAM does not give errors, then continue to increase the frequency.
Step 6
Do not under any circumstances drastically reduce the latency rates. This can lead not only to a malfunction of the computer, but also to damage to the memory cards.
