But there other legitimate ways to boost your’s performance without resorting to any such game boosters. Whatever it may be, we will soon find out in April. Still there’s a lot of ambiguity as MS hasn’t revealed critical details like whether all games or ones from only Windows Store are supported. MS’s implementation is on the same lines, but it will be more superior as it’s done at OS level.

But such boosters are akin to snake oil, with no real world improvement whatsoever. Razer’s Game Booster is one modern example. Many programs claiming to boost FPS are there from years. Game Mode aims to not let this happen by taming the background processes.

Your FPS might drop and you may experience stuttering or lag. During your playing sessions, if some rogue background app (cough…Windows Update…cough) decides to run, it will affect your gameplay. Unless your PC is Hulk in Specs department or you are running a very old game, many of today’s titles will tax your system upto max. The higher the FPS number, the better & smoother your visuals. 60 FPS is considered as benchmark & adequate for majority of gamers. Their performance is measured by FPS (Frames per Second), which means how many frames or individual images your PC can process in a second. While the exact details for the Game Mode are still not clear, with Microsoft only saying that Game Mode will make your gaming experience on Windows more enjoyable & immersive.

Among these there is one feature which is sure to entice Gamers like me, the Game Mode. Scheduled to forcefully takeover your PC sometime in April 2017, the Creator’s Update brings many new features such as new 3D Paint app, improved VR-AR features and general refinements to Edge & Cortana. The next major update to Windows 10 is around the distant corner.
