Windows 8.1 64Bit Network optimization HELP!

tso92 · Post by **tso92** » Wed Jul 09, 2014 10:41 am

Hallo, (i´am from germany sorry for bad english ^^)

also my os is windows 8.1 64bit and i will tweak my network and OS, (rwin mss mtu etc.)
but i dont know who ....

i play games like bf4 bf3 and look many videos on youtube ...... and i see many tweaks for windows but not for WINDOWS 8.1
and i think that i must change my parameters for windows 8.1 and not win7 xp or vista ( i mean that the most videos are a copy from unknown people and mostly another os´s than windows 8.1 )

with tcp opti 3.0.8 or older / Dr.tcp doesnt work right i think, because if i use tcp opti. i have many disconnects ( optimal settings or custome --> same result )

i hope you can help me ... and i dont know (what you need / which data/info) to help ....
write and i try my best xD

Do a tracert to figure out any hops close to you that may experience ping spikes and packet loss.
Other than that, what type of internet connection do you use ?
A lot of the tweaks remain the same in Windows 8.1, look at the netsh commands from the following article and try them manually:

For setting congestion provider in windows 8.1 use these and restart first then go to next pass;

Code: Select all

then save this one as a batch file and execute it as admin (right click and click run as administrator) ex: nodelay.bat

Code: Select all

:: Script that finds the enabled network adapter of a certain name and sets the default gateway

set networkCardKey=HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4d36e972-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}

  if "!I:~0,4!"=="HKEY" (
    if not "!I:~-10!"=="Properties" (

       for /f "tokens=3" %%E in ('reg query "%enabledKey%!dev!" /v ConfigFlags') do set flag=%%E
       if "!flag!"=="0x0" (
         set __adapter_!I:~-4!.name=!name!
         set __adapter_!I:~-4!.guid=!guid!
       )
     )
  )
)


set targetName=Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller

set guid=
set testguid=

for /f "tokens=2* delims=.=" %%A in ('set __adapter_') do (
  if "%%A"=="guid" (
    set testguid=%%B
  )
  if "%%A"=="name" (
    if "%%B"=="%targetName%" (
       set guid=!testguid!
     )
  )
)

if defined guid (
  reg add %interfaceKey%!guid! /v MTU /t REG_DWORD /d 0x5dc /f
  reg add %interfaceKey%!guid! /v TCPNODelay /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
  reg add %interfaceKey%!guid! /v TcpAckFrequency /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
  reg add %interfaceKey%!guid! /v TcpDelAckTicks /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
) else (
  echo "Not Found!"
)

set guid=

ENDLOCAL
Echo On

here at these lines you may modify if you have another adapter(s)

set targetName=Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller

change as example this : Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller : with your Adapter name !

then open cmd.exe as administrator !

copy these lines into it and pres enter (one at the time)

Code: Select all

netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=highlyrestricted
netsh int ip set global taskoffload=enabled
netsh int tcp set global chimney=automatic
netsh int tcp set heuristics wsh=disabled
netsh int tcp set global rss=enabled

good luck

really nice thank you i try this .....
but second i dont understand ....

i create a .bat file and write the second window ( after code: ) IN THIS .bat FILE and run it as administrator ... right ?

and 3th is set targetname= ?
my network adapter is --> Intel(R) 82579V Gigabit Network Connection -->said my device-manager

KEiGHT · Post by **KEiGHT** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 6:04 pm

you may create a .bat file if you want with all netsh settings !

example for target name:

set targetName=Intel(R) 82579V Gigabit Network Connection

TCP Optimizer will show you the right Adapter Name

tso92 · Post by **tso92** » Thu Jul 10, 2014 7:09 pm

ok thank you ... and as backup i will export my registry ....

netsh int tcp set global congestionprovider=ctcp
cmd as admin dont accept this comand : netsh int tcp set global congestionprovider=ctcp

maybe my system can more ...
cpu: i7 3930k
ram: 16 gb ddr3 ram
gpu: gtx titan
motherboard: gigabyte x79 ud5

KEiGHT · Post by **KEiGHT** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 1:54 am

If you merge those registry, don't need anymore to set netsh for CTCP

in windows 8.1, only Powershell work to set CTCP directly

tso92 · Post by **tso92** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 8:17 am

ok keight also i change all parameters ....
and up to now no disconnect .... maybe i changed before not enough parameter ^^

however thank you

KEiGHT · Post by **KEiGHT** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 1:49 pm

test with this to see if all are in

netsh int tcp show global

tso92 · Post by **tso92** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 2:36 pm

i checked all and all is in, but i think the gameplay is mhmmm how i say that slower / or i feel like iam in slowmotion after i changed all ....

->it is normal ?

(i enable cpu unparking in OS and BIOS)

i7 3930k with 4.3 ghz

High Precision Event Timer ??? on or off .... i dont know many said on many said off
i turned HPET off and it is ok
but my ping get sometimes higher .... --> ping peak ... from 50 ---to--> 106
or 9 to ---> 25 ....
maybe some parameter need more optimazion ^^

KEiGHT · Post by **KEiGHT** » Sat Jul 12, 2014 7:54 am

CPU unparking are only for AMD

Why don't you just leave it alone? The "tweaks" that you are trying to apply obviously aren't working.

Just what I said. If everything that you have tried isn't working, just let it go.
