The latest PC games require a huge amount of resources. Even with powerful hardware, they can still run slowly with certain video settings. Razer Game Booster can help you squeeze more resources out of your computer, while playing games. It shuts down non-critical processes and services and it carries out other optimization tasks, which free your computer's RAM. As a direct result, your games will run faster and smoother.

The software is free and it does not take long to install it on a modern day computer. You will not encounter any compatibility issues, even if you are using a 64-bit operating system. Moreover, you don't have to install any prerequisite tools or restart your computer before running the application.

Razer Game Booster comes with a tabbed interface, on which you can find several features. The game launcher is the software's central feature. You can add your favorite games to a list, by selecting their executables on a standard Open dialog and launch them. If you run a game with this launcher, the application will optimize your system automatically. Alternatively, you may click an option, on the same interface, to switch to gaming mode and launch any game the traditional way.

The software allows you to decide what should be shut down when gaming mode is on. You can target any running processes, as well as system or non-Windows services. You can also tick a few options to close Explorer.exe, clean the computer's RAM, change the power settings for high performance and more. Besides the game launcher, you can also use a few tools for system diagnostics and tweaking, driver updates, and path defragmentation.

Razer Game Booster includes screen capturing features as well. You may configure a series of hotkeys and make a few quality adjustments on a separate tab. While playing a game, you can use your hotkeys to display the current framerate, take screenshots or start a video and audio recording.

Pros

You can make your games run faster, just by clicking a button. The software allows you to choose which processes and services to shut down. Razer Game Booster also includes a few system tweaking tools and screen capturing features.

Cons

The user interface is predominantly black, making the text hard to read in certain cases. With Razer Game Booster, you can focus your computer's resources exclusively on games, to make them run faster and smoother.
