New computers ship with operating systems that are designed to work on a multitude of hardware configurations, as these operating systems are not specific to a particular machine it’s unlikely they get the most from a computers hardware. There are a number of general tweaks you can perform, but to really optimise your PCs performance you should consider a standalone tweaking and optimisation tool.  

Ashampoo WinOptimizer 5.03 is an optimisation tool that enables you to get the most from your operating system, depending on your hardware configuration and software installed on your machine. You can also use it to tweak your registry and even defragment your hard disk.
