   I searched first and found three threads that all contradict each other. I assumed it was a known issue, but I cannot find anyone else describing it.

   I tested it across a couple of sessions and the difference was smaller than the forums made it sound. Corrections welcome, especially if I got a detail wrong.

   For what it is worth, you get most of the benefit from the first adjustment; everything after that is marginal.

   The usual fix here is measure before and after, otherwise you are just guessing whether it helped.

   Same boat here. worth testing on a second account to rule out something profile-specific.

   Let us know which part worked.

   Counterpoint: the safe move is the reversible one — you can always undo it if it makes things worse.

   The usual fix here is the difference is real but small enough that you may not notice it while playing.

   That fixed it for me, at least.

   Same boat here. this changed for me after the last patch, so older threads may steer you wrong.

   Others may have a cleaner method.

   Speaking as someone who got it wrong initially, the averages hide the problem; look at the one percent lows instead.

   Not the answer you want, but region and server load matter more than most guides acknowledge.

    Report back once you have tried it.

    Quick correction to the above: that behaviour is intentional, even though it is poorly explained in-game.

    Worth a shot before anything drastic.

    Speaking as someone who got it wrong initially, the wiki number is theoretical; real results are always a bit lower.

    That fixed it for me, at least.

    For what it is worth, the defaults are conservative on purpose, so there is usually headroom to gain.

    Others may have a cleaner method.

    Speaking as someone who got it wrong initially, verify the files before anything else; it catches more problems than people expect.

    This is the bit people miss — the trick is to change one thing at a time and actually note the result before touching anything else.

    I went through this last month. the difference is real but small enough that you may not notice it while playing.

    Good luck, it is a common snag.

    For what it is worth, keep a note of what you changed, otherwise you cannot undo it cleanly later.

    Let us know which part worked.

    In my testing, nine times out of ten it is a driver or a background process, not the thing you suspect.
