Comments and Reviews
I use Razer Cortex as my game launcher, despite a few other options I have available. The main reason why is the game booster, which is awesome. It optimizes my PC when launching a game, and restores it when the game closes. The System Booster I run about once a week, just to clean up unnecessary files.
I still use NVIDIA GeForce Experience to optimize game settings for my GPU, and I get 144fps (my monitor's maximum) on some games, with 90fps being average on others.
I no longer use Razer Cortex. There is a lot of feedback with people saying it slows their computer, but I never experienced this myself. My issue with it was that after a fresh Windows reinstall it wouldn't detect any of my GOG games. After a few days I decided to get rid of it and just use the GOG launcher. As far as performance goes, I don't really notice a drop in performance without the Game Booster running.
I simply optimize games with NVIDIA GeForce Experience now. All is well :D
need user account to use software
Although Razer Cortex scores high at alternativeTo and is free, when I initiated the installation, the program demanded I provide an email address and a password in order to access not only any features of the program but also services which seemed related to gaming. No access is granted to any features without such agreement. That said, the email address seems related to gaining information related to gaming. Users will have to decipher what that implies.
Now the sign-in is optional, you can use a "Guest account" to use all functions.
