  1. 0:00This right here is the fastest gaming
  2. 0:02laptop all the way from 2018. Having
  3. 0:05only a GTX 1650 GPU as well as a 60 Hz
  4. 0:09refresh rate screen, we're going to be
  5. 0:11optimizing this laptop to still be crazy
  6. 0:14in 2026. Okay, so this right here is the
  7. 0:18gaming laptop and it is definitely the
  8. 0:20best gaming laptop of all time. I mean,
  9. 0:22this laptop still outperforms some
  10. 0:24budget gaming laptops even in 2026.
  11. 0:27Well, this laptop actually came out all
  12. 0:29the way back in 2018. So, this is
  13. 0:31definitely a pretty old gaming laptop.
  14. 0:33Not to mention, this was a budget gaming
  15. 0:35laptop for its time. Like, it cost about
  16. 0:37$599, so it wasn't too expensive. The
  17. 0:40crazy thing about this budget laptop was
  18. 0:42that some people actually got this
  19. 0:44laptop running close to a,000 FPS. I
  20. 0:46actually have a friend named Cooler who
  21. 0:48actually got this exact laptop to even
  22. 0:50about 1,200 FPS about 4 years ago. So,
  23. 0:54this laptop is definitely super super
  24. 0:57powerful and it is also a very popular
  25. 0:59gaming laptop. This gaming laptop is the
  26. 1:01Acer Nitro 5, which is the 2019 version,
  27. 1:05which the specs in 2026 aren't the best,
  28. 1:08but trust me, this laptop is still
  29. 1:10pretty good. It has a GTX 1650 GPU,
  30. 1:13which honestly was a pretty popular GPU
  31. 1:15as well, especially on like budget
  32. 1:17laptops like this. And then for the CPU,
  33. 1:19we have an i 9300. Nothing too crazy of
  34. 1:22an Intel CPU. But the only disadvantage
  35. 1:25with this gaming laptop in 2026 is
  36. 1:27definitely the refresh rate. The
  37. 1:29screen's refresh rate is 60 Hz as well
  38. 1:31as being a 1080p resolution. So, if you
  39. 1:34guys are playing on this gaming laptop
  40. 1:35in 2026, I definitely recommend you guys
  41. 1:38connect this thing to an external
  42. 1:39monitor since first off, connecting a
  43. 1:42gaming laptop to an external monitor, it
  44. 1:44literally could be any refresh rate,
  45. 1:45gives you a slight FPS boost of about
  46. 1:4815%. And then you guys can go ahead and
  47. 1:50also take advantage of the higher
  48. 1:51refresh rates coming from this laptop.
  49. 1:53Since the refresh rate is only 60 Hz,
  50. 1:55you're only going to be able to see 60
  51. 1:57fps. But yeah, I want to go ahead and
  52. 1:59see how good this gaming laptop is in
  53. 2:012026. And also go ahead and upgrade the
  54. 2:04RAM inside this laptop since this Nitro
  55. 2:065 only came with 8 gigs of RAM, which is
  56. 2:08definitely not enough for gaming in 2026
  57. 2:11as well. The storage is only also about
  58. 2:13256 gigs of storage, but it really
  59. 2:16doesn't matter too much since we're
  60. 2:17going to be really just testing out
  61. 2:19Fortnite and Fortnite just takes up all
  62. 2:21the storage inside of this laptop. Now,
  63. 2:23like I said, I've seen this gaming
  64. 2:24laptop actually outperform new gen
  65. 2:26budget laptops. Talking about gaming
  66. 2:28laptops with like an RTX 5050, which
  67. 2:31don't get me wrong, they do have a
  68. 2:32pretty high refresh rate screen going up
  69. 2:34to about like 165 hertz, which is just
  70. 2:37crazy. But I'm not even joking. This
  71. 2:39laptop from 2019 did actually outperform
  72. 2:42so many new gen budget gaming laptops.
  73. 2:45And not to mention, if you guys decide
  74. 2:46to pick up this gaming laptop in 2026,
  75. 2:49you guys can definitely get really good
  76. 2:51deals from this laptop since many people
  77. 2:53actually upgraded from this laptop. And
  78. 2:55they're selling this exact laptop on
  79. 2:57eBay for as low as $230.
  80. 3:01Like, it's actually crazy how cheap this
  81. 3:03laptop actually is. Like the specs are
  82. 3:05definitely very outdated, but for some
  83. 3:07light 1080p gaming, this laptop
  84. 3:09definitely still has the potential of
  85. 3:11running consistently 180 fps. Okay, but
  86. 3:14taking a look inside of this laptop.
  87. 3:16I've actually done upgrades on this
  88. 3:17Nitro 5 before. One huge upgrade I did
  89. 3:20was on like the cooling fan was broken.
  90. 3:22So, I did need to buy like an external
  91. 3:24cooling fan and basically install it.
  92. 3:26That definitely helped a lot with the
  93. 3:27temperatures of this laptop as well as
  94. 3:29the performance. Most importantly, it
  95. 3:31got rid of this very [music] loud fan
  96. 3:33noise that was just super annoying that
  97. 3:36I literally played with for about 3
  98. 3:38years. And I finally did upgrade that
  99. 3:40about a year ago. But yeah, this laptop
  100. 3:42you guys can go ahead and actually
  101. 3:43upgrade the RAM unlike some modern
  102. 3:45laptop where the RAM you guys can't
  103. 3:46actually upgrade and it's basically
  104. 3:47[music] built inside of like the
  105. 3:49motherboard. Yeah, we can go ahead and
  106. 3:50upgrade this laptop which only comes
  107. 3:52with 8 gigs of DDR4 RAM which I have
  108. 3:54this 8 gig RAM stick right over here.
  109. 3:57And just simply upgrading the RAM is
  110. 3:59actually going to give us an FPS
  111. 4:00increase as well as having more
  112. 4:02consistent FPS since we're not going to
  113. 4:04have to deal with any problems with the
  114. 4:06game's meshes or whatever since we're
  115. 4:07only running 8 gigs of RAM. Yeah. Boom.
  116. 4:09There we go. We upgraded the RAM. And
  117. 4:11honestly, for a gaming laptop I had for
  118. 4:13a very long time, I also played with for
  119. 4:15a very long time as well. The condition
  120. 4:18of this GTX 1650 laptop is actually
  121. 4:20still pretty good. I honestly see this
  122. 4:22laptop still having a few more years in
  123. 4:25it before it's just completely garbage
  124. 4:27and can't play any games at all. So,
  125. 4:29let's go ahead and first see how much
  126. 4:31FPS we can get on this laptop. And if we
  127. 4:33need to go ahead and actually optimize
  128. 4:34it since back then I did optimize this
  129. 4:37laptop a lot and me personally I did
  130. 4:39reach about like 800 FPS on this laptop.
  131. 4:42You guys can go ahead check my older
  132. 4:43video. This laptop was running like an
  133. 4:45absolute beast. Okay, so if you guys
  134. 4:47take a look at the specs of this gaming
  135. 4:49laptop, we have the 16 gigs of RAM
  136. 4:52installed on this Nitro 5 now. And you
  137. 4:54guys can see the CPU is an i5 9300H. We
  138. 4:58have the GTX 1650 graphics card, and we
  139. 5:00also have 1 TB of storage that I did
  140. 5:02also install. Now, usually the refresh
  141. 5:04rate of this laptop is 60 Hz, but I did
  142. 5:07overclock the display to 82 herz. And
  143. 5:10this is what I've actually done before
  144. 5:12when I used to play on this laptop. I
  145. 5:14didn't actually play on 60 Hz. I did
  146. 5:15play on the overclocked version of the
  147. 5:17refresh rate. So, it definitely makes a
  148. 5:19huge difference if you guys actually try
  149. 5:20out 60 Hz versus 82 Hz and I'll even
  150. 5:23show you guys how to actually do that
  151. 5:25later on when we actually try to
  152. 5:26optimize this thing. But first, let's go
  153. 5:28ahead and just take a look at the
  154. 5:29performance and FPS we get from this
  155. 5:31laptop without doing any optimizations,
  156. 5:33anything to it at all. Okay, now taking
  157. 5:35a look at the max FPS this laptop can
  158. 5:37actually get without any optimizations
  159. 5:39whatsoever. you guys to see why this
  160. 5:41Acer Nitro 5 laptop is still pretty good
  161. 5:43in 2026 with the max FPS running close
  162. 5:46to 240 FPS right now. This is absolutely
  163. 5:50crazy coming from a laptop that's almost
  164. 5:528 years old that only has a GTX GPU
  165. 5:55inside of it as well as only having an
  166. 5:57Intel Core i5 CPU. Like it definitely
  167. 6:00runs very consistently about 180 to 190
  168. 6:04FPS in creative. Yeah, just upgrading
  169. 6:07the RAM, I do notice a difference in the
  170. 6:09performance from this laptop. And it's
  171. 6:12actually not just the performance. I do
  172. 6:13notice a difference in like the meshes
  173. 6:15of Fortnite as well. Game honestly looks
  174. 6:17a lot clearer and just more defined once
  175. 6:20you actually upgrade the RAM to 16 gigs
  176. 6:22compared to 8 gigs of RAM where you're
  177. 6:23going to be getting less FPS as well as
  178. 6:26the builds as well as like the builds,
  179. 6:27meshes, and everything just looking less
  180. 6:30defined and they also take longer to
  181. 6:32actually load in. But yeah, as I'm
  182. 6:34building with this laptop right now,
  183. 6:35we're actually still running about 145
  184. 6:37to 160 FPS. Like, this laptop is still
  185. 6:41insanely good. I guarantee you guys
  186. 6:44can't find a better laptop for under
  187. 6:46$300 right now that can run FPS as
  188. 6:48consistent as this laptop right over
  189. 6:50here. And you guys will know why this
  190. 6:52laptop was super popular. It is for a
  191. 6:54good reason. The price of performance
  192. 6:57coming from this laptop is just so good.
  193. 6:59And it was crazy that back then I even
  194. 7:01reached 800 FPS with this laptop with
  195. 7:03many people also reaching close to a,000
  196. 7:05FPS. But unfortunately creative is
  197. 7:07probably like the best part with playing
  198. 7:08on this laptops. In an actual game the
  199. 7:10FPS is just so much less consistent
  200. 7:13which is why I'm going to go ahead and
  201. 7:14see if I can optimize this thing and
  202. 7:16just make it so much more playable in
  203. 7:182026. Since the potential FPS we can get
  204. 7:20with this laptop is still pretty high.
  205. 7:23I'm going to go ahead and try to reach a
  206. 7:25max FPS of about like 300 FPS. That
  207. 7:28might be a little bit of a stretch, but
  208. 7:29coming from a laptop who used to could
  209. 7:31run 800 FPS, it is definitely possible.
  210. 7:34Even though this is a pretty old laptop
  211. 7:36still, but so far, just upgrading the
  212. 7:38RAM for this laptop is a good first
  213. 7:40step. Since it only comes with 8 gigs of
  214. 7:42RAM, that was definitely limiting us.
  215. 7:44And the performance you get with this
  216. 7:45laptop. Okay, if you guys take a look at
  217. 7:47the max FPS we're getting in an actual
  218. 7:49game, we're still running about like 90
  219. 7:52to 110 FPS, sometimes reaching 120 FPS
  220. 7:56in an actual game. And this is with the
  221. 7:58laptop not being optimized at all. So,
  222. 8:01it definitely still runs pretty decent
  223. 8:03without being optimized. This is just
  224. 8:05raw power coming from the laptop still.
  225. 8:07And even though the FPS is just so much
  226. 8:10like less consistent. All right, you're
  227. 8:12dead, bro. You're dead, bro.
  228. 8:16Get him out of here. Nice. Oh, he's
  229. 8:18right over here. Oh crap, I'm dead. I'm
  230. 8:19dead. FPS is definitely less consistent
  231. 8:22in an actual game with us running only
  232. 8:24about like 85 to 90 FPS. Like right
  233. 8:28there, we got a frame drop all of a
  234. 8:29sudden for no reason as well. But
  235. 8:31honestly, for a laptop that definitely
  236. 8:33pretty old and was a budget gaming
  237. 8:36laptop, it still runs without being
  238. 8:38optimized pretty decent. Like a lot of
  239. 8:40laptops nowadays, I'm pretty sure they
  240. 8:43can't even run as good.
  241. 8:53Correct. 200. There we go. A lot of
  242. 8:55budget gaming laptops nowadays that are
  243. 8:58maybe like double the price of this
  244. 8:59laptop don't even run as good as this
  245. 9:02laptop. So, even without being
  246. 9:04optimized, this laptop runs consistently
  247. 9:05about 95 fps, which is still above the
  248. 9:09refresh rate of this gaming laptop,
  249. 9:11which usually the screen's only 60 Hz. I
  250. 9:14did go ahead and actually overclock it,
  251. 9:15but the FPS is definitely very different
  252. 9:18in an actual game [music] compared to
  253. 9:19what we got in creative for sure. Right
  254. 9:21there, we got a frame drop. But yeah,
  255. 9:23I'm pretty sure I can go ahead and
  256. 9:25optimize this thing to be like so much
  257. 9:27better. Like literally so much Okay,
  258. 9:30crack. There we go.
  259. 9:34Get him out of here. Get him out of
  260. 9:36here. There we go. I see him. Hold on. I
  261. 9:38see him. I see another dude. Hold on.
  262. 9:41Where's this guy?
  263. 9:44Cracked.
  264. 9:48200. There we go. Okay, just fighting
  265. 9:50that guy, we definitely dropped down to
  266. 9:53about like 70 FPS. Get me out. So, when
  267. 9:57you actually get into a fight, the
  268. 9:58frames do start to drop.
  269. 10:02crack
  270. 10:05200. There we go. Okay, the frames did
  271. 10:08drop down to like 61 FPS from what I
  272. 10:11saw. So, like I said, the FPS is
  273. 10:13definitely not as consistent in an
  274. 10:15actual game, but I definitely think we
  275. 10:17can go ahead and optimize this thing to
  276. 10:19run so much better. Like, I've seen this
  277. 10:21thing run way better before. So, even
  278. 10:24though it's still pretty old, I'm pretty
  279. 10:26sure I can go ahead and get this thing
  280. 10:27to run at least consistently
  281. 10:30120 FPS in an actual game. That is what
  282. 10:33the goal is. But so far, we're only
  283. 10:35running about like 80 FPS consistently
  284. 10:37without this thing being optimized,
  285. 10:39which isn't like the worst. Like, it can
  286. 10:41definitely get a lot worse than this,
  287. 10:43especially with this laptop being as old
  288. 10:45as it is. So, I'm honestly pretty
  289. 10:47surprised it's holding up pretty well.
  290. 10:50Get him out of there. There we go. And
  291. 10:52definitely if we didn't upgrade the RAM,
  292. 10:54the frame drops would be a lot worse. So
  293. 10:57definitely upgrade the RAM on this
  294. 10:59thing. No way. I just started missing.
  295. 11:02All right, [music] let's see if we can
  296. 11:02get into a fight. And hopefully the
  297. 11:04frames don't drop too much. 200. There
  298. 11:07we go. Our frames are definitely going
  299. 11:09to drop a lot over here. There's someone
  300. 11:11right over here. I can't edit
  301. 11:17200. There we go. Oh my. Oh my. Oh my.
  302. 11:21Let's go. I can definitely still run
  303. 11:23this thing pretty good without it
  304. 11:25actually being optimized. Like the
  305. 11:27laptop is still definitely running very
  306. 11:29solid, especially for 1080p gaming like
  307. 11:31we are right now. Oh my Oh
  308. 11:37my Let's go get him out of there. I
  309. 11:39actually thought it would be a lot
  310. 11:41worse. I'm not going to lie. Oh my god.
  311. 11:43Oh my. Yo, my builds won't place. My
  312. 11:45builds won't place. There's someone down
  313. 11:47here.
  314. 11:50There we go. There we go. There we go. I
  315. 11:51need the medkit. There we go. Nice.
  316. 11:54Definitely frame drops. Just fighting
  317. 11:55that guy right out of the bat. So,
  318. 11:57hopefully optimizing this thing could
  319. 11:59fix all those problems. That's like the
  320. 12:01number one problem with this laptop. And
  321. 12:03the only thing that's really stopping me
  322. 12:05from like playing on this laptop in
  323. 12:062026. Like the max FPS is really good,
  324. 12:09but it's definitely not consistent. The
  325. 12:11laptop is definitely not as consistent
  326. 12:12[music] as you think. Wait, this guy's
  327. 12:14landing in
  328. 12:16200. There we go. Get him out of here.
  329. 12:18There's fighting up here. I missed.
  330. 12:22Go, go, go, go, go, go, go. There's
  331. 12:23another guy. There's so much people.
  332. 12:27There's so much people. 40. I'm dead.
  333. 12:31I'm dead. I'm dead. I'm dead. I'm dead.
  334. 12:33Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Let me heal.
  335. 12:35Please do not get frame drops. That's
  336. 12:37all we need right now. Just don't get a
  337. 12:38frame drop and we live. Wait, there's
  338. 12:40loot down here. I need this. Please give
  339. 12:42me a medkit. Why is my builds not
  340. 12:43placing? I need a medkit. Come on.
  341. 12:45Where's the medkits at? No way. Chill,
  342. 12:48chill, chill, chill, chill.
  343. 12:50Loot in here, please. No way. How is it
  344. 12:53this hard to find a med kit, man? All
  345. 12:54right, we're still running about like 85
  346. 12:58to 90 FPS right now, which it's been
  347. 13:01pretty consistently running about like
  348. 13:0380 FPS the entire game. Should I push
  349. 13:06this guy? No, no, no. We can't push him.
  350. 13:07We can't push him. Hold on. Just get me
  351. 13:09out. I can't push [music] him yet. What
  352. 13:10am I doing, bro? That's not even the
  353. 13:12right way. Hold on. I see him. I can't
  354. 13:15get no damage in. Hold on. Oh my god. I
  355. 13:18could have hit that. I could have hit
  356. 13:19that for sure. Peek, peek, peek, peek,
  357. 13:22peek, peek, peek. No way. I got like no
  358. 13:26mobility. That's my problem right now.
  359. 13:28There we go. There we go. We got it. We
  360. 13:29got it. All right, we're going up. We
  361. 13:31going up, man. We going up. Where these
  362. 13:33people at? Hit that. Where's this guy?
  363. 13:35Is he below me? Yeah, he's below me. He
  364. 13:38dropped down somewhere. He ran away.
  365. 13:40Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go.
  366. 13:42Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go.
  367. 13:43We going over here. Nice. Nice. Nice.
  368. 13:45Nice. Nice. Four people left. Running
  369. 13:47about 110 FPS right now. Still some
  370. 13:52pretty solid FPS. Nothing too crazy.
  371. 13:55This guy's probably going to push me.
  372. 13:56No, he's not. [music] All right, let's
  373. 13:58go. Let's go. I missed. All good. All
  374. 14:00right, they're all fighting over there.
  375. 14:02I'm not sure if there's someone down
  376. 14:04here. There is.
  377. 14:0736.
  378. 14:13Oh, he is one shot. 200. There we go.
  379. 14:16Get me back up. He doesn't know. We're
  380. 14:18good. We're good. We're good. I'm
  381. 14:20lagging. What the Okay.
  382. 14:26I miss
  383. 14:2940 [music] 16. We got height. No way I'm
  384. 14:32about to win this. No way with these
  385. 14:34frame drops. We got height. We're good.
  386. 14:44I miss. I missed.
  387. 14:47No way. No way. I lost that. There's no
  388. 14:50way I missed my shot.
  389. 14:53Okay, let's see how good we can get this
  390. 14:54laptop to run by doing some
  391. 14:56optimizations onto it now. Okay, so I'm
  392. 14:58going to be seeing if I could do the
  393. 15:00same optimizations I've actually done
  394. 15:01back then on this laptop to get the 800
  395. 15:04FPS I used to. And the first thing I
  396. 15:06really want to do is just update the
  397. 15:08drivers for this laptop. You guys can
  398. 15:10see I don't even have the most upto-date
  399. 15:12drivers. So, let's go ahead and first
  400. 15:13just download that. All right, let's go
  401. 15:15ahead and run some quick Windows
  402. 15:16settings. First off being the graphics
  403. 15:18settings. These are kind of like the
  404. 15:19go-to settings I ran with back then to
  405. 15:22optimize this laptop. So, let's go ahead
  406. 15:23and see if it still helps. In the
  407. 15:25graphics preference, we're going to go
  408. 15:26ahead and find Fortnite. You guys can go
  409. 15:28ahead and add in Fortnite if you guys
  410. 15:29don't see it. Go into options and we're
  411. 15:31going to go ahead and select high
  412. 15:32performance where you guys can see it is
  413. 15:34on our GPU, the GTX 1650. Let's go ahead
  414. 15:37and save that. Next up, we can go ahead
  415. 15:39and go into our power options. And I did
  416. 15:41just realize that this laptop is still
  417. 15:42running Windows 10. So any updates with
  418. 15:45Windows 10 has been discontinued. I
  419. 15:47should probably upgrade this laptop to
  420. 15:48Windows 11. But let's go ahead and
  421. 15:50create a power plan. Select high
  422. 15:51performance. Press on next. Select all
  423. 15:53these on never. And we should be running
  424. 15:56on its highest performance now for this
  425. 15:58laptop. So we're not going to like
  426. 16:00preserve any energy or anything like
  427. 16:02that from our battery. All right. Let's
  428. 16:03make sure all like the game modes and
  429. 16:05everything are turned on. Okay, we have
  430. 16:07game mode on, but you guys want to make
  431. 16:09sure to have game bar off. Next, let's
  432. 16:11go ahead adjust the appearance and
  433. 16:12performance of Windows where I'm going
  434. 16:15to go ahead and just select adjust for
  435. 16:16best performance [music] and click on
  436. 16:19show thumbnails instead of icons and
  437. 16:21smooth edges on screen font.
  438. 16:24This is basically going to transform
  439. 16:25Windows to kind of look a little bit
  440. 16:26uglier, but nothing too crazy, but it
  441. 16:28should give you just a slight
  442. 16:30performance boost. All right, let's go
  443. 16:31ahead and go into Nvidia Control Panel
  444. 16:33now. And what I want to actually do on
  445. 16:36this is just set our preference
  446. 16:37emphasizing on straight performance.
  447. 16:40Now, usually I would say go use your 3D
  448. 16:42settings, but on this laptop and
  449. 16:44especially back then, I literally just
  450. 16:46set this bar all the way to performance.
  451. 16:48So, your game might look a little bit
  452. 16:50different for sure, but it's going to
  453. 16:52give you an FPS boost since you're
  454. 16:53literally just preferring performance
  455. 16:56over quality of your game. So, let's go
  456. 16:58ahead apply that. And the next Nvidia
  457. 17:01thing is going into the Nvidia app. And
  458. 17:03what's really cool about this new app
  459. 17:05compared to like GeForce Experience,
  460. 17:06which I only had back then with this
  461. 17:08laptop, is we can go ahead and use
  462. 17:10Nvidia apps advanced overclocking
  463. 17:13settings. So, if we go into performance,
  464. 17:15you guys can see all these performance
  465. 17:17stats for our GPU. And we can go ahead
  466. 17:19and just select automatic tuning, which
  467. 17:21automatically finds the best overclock
  468. 17:23settings for our GPU, which normally
  469. 17:25would be pretty hard since you guys need
  470. 17:27to go on the internet and find all these
  471. 17:29settings and manually do it. But the
  472. 17:31Nvidia app definitely helps with that by
  473. 17:33giving us the best settings to overclock
  474. 17:35the GPU. So, definitely super helpful
  475. 17:37and will definitely give us a
  476. 17:39performance boost. The next tool I used
  477. 17:41on this laptop is the Ultimate Windows
  478. 17:43Utility. This is kind of outdated from
  479. 17:452022 now, but we can go ahead and still
  480. 17:48use this by running this command for
  481. 17:50PowerShell. So, go ahead and run
  482. 17:53PowerShell as an administrator. Paste in
  483. 17:56the command just like that. And we
  484. 17:58should open up the one tool for
  485. 18:00everything from Chris Titus. Boom. Just
  486. 18:03like that. And we can go ahead and just
  487. 18:04go into tweaks. And you guys can see we
  488. 18:06have a ton of tweaks here. But usually
  489. 18:08what I did is just click on standard.
  490. 18:10Back then, they actually had recommended
  491. 18:12selections for laptops versus desktops,
  492. 18:14but I guess they just removed that. So,
  493. 18:16let's just go ahead and use all these
  494. 18:18standard tweaks. Once you press on
  495. 18:20tweaks, you guys will see in the
  496. 18:21background, it's just going to run all
  497. 18:22these tweaks while creating a system
  498. 18:24restore for you. So, this is completely
  499. 18:26safe, and this is usually where I got my
  500. 18:29most FPS boost. So, this Chris Titus
  501. 18:31tool is definitely super helpful,
  502. 18:34especially on low-end and budget
  503. 18:36laptops. And once all the tweaks are
  504. 18:38finished, it will show in the PowerShell
  505. 18:40just like that. And we also removed so
  506. 18:42many disc space. So, we have a lot of
  507. 18:44free space now. And that honestly wasn't
  508. 18:46too many tweaks. But let's go ahead and
  509. 18:48just see if we even got a performance
  510. 18:50boost from Fortnite first. Hopefully, we
  511. 18:52got at least like 30 to 40 FPS increase
  512. 18:55and more consistent FPS. Now, now after
  513. 18:57optimizing this laptop, the max FPS, you
  514. 19:00guys can see, is definitely much better
  515. 19:02with the max FPS going up to about 260
  516. 19:06to 270 FPS. So, we definitely did get
  517. 19:08about like a 40 FPS increase. Now, if
  518. 19:11you guys take a look at how consistent
  519. 19:13FPS is now, it's definitely pretty much
  520. 19:16more consistent with us running
  521. 19:17consistently about 220 to 230 FPS. Now,
  522. 19:21there definitely still is slight frame
  523. 19:23drops here and there down to about like
  524. 19:25190 FPS, but it's definitely not as
  525. 19:27worse as before. So, let me know in the
  526. 19:29comments if you guys think this laptop
  527. 19:31is still good in 2026.
  528. 19:33Let's go, bro. GG's.
