[@Heinz] nope, Windows does not come with all the tools you’ll need, and nope, no computer runs any game at the computer’s smoothest and most responsive potential right out of the box, that’s what tweaking is all about — to customize your computer for each task — Microsoft is not savvy enough to get out of their own way.
Plus each end user can spend hours researching what services and programs to toggle to get their PC to pay attention to them instead of to be collecting program data and sending to Microsoft and scanning for Microsoft in the background.
Sure, a savvy person can do it manually … over and over every time they want to play a game with all the responsiveness they paid for.
Or, they can use a program that automates it for them — well, whadyaknow, a program that automates a task — what will these computer geeks think of next?
( Why would someone who thinks Windows comes with everything be on this site anyway? )
