Guides

Free, complete guides to the settings Windows, your GPU driver and your games already give you. Every guide works on its own, no purchase needed. Where a Fastplay build helps, we say what it adds and what it does not.

Why the scan asks for these values

Your answers help the scan recommend modules. Your Windows version, drive type, CPU core count and game set the few settings that depend on them. The network values are optional; skip any you do not want to share. None of them are passwords or account details.

Find your values for the scan

The scan asks for a few numbers most people have never looked up. Each takes a minute.

Windows for gaming

Per game

What to set in game, in your driver panel and in Windows for each title. Graphics and shader behavior are handled in game and in the driver; Windows controls how your PC schedules, prioritizes and services the game. Each page says which is which.

The steps above are the settings Windows and your driver show you, and they are worth doing either way. Underneath them is a deeper layer of Windows scheduling, input, network and storage behavior that the normal menus do not expose. That is what Fastplay builds for, from a team working on gaming regedit optimization since 2015, with modules developed and tested over years. See what each module does.
