    If you have latest gpu, GFE is good since it maxes out everything. If you like you tweak some settings it'll say game is not optimised. Just set it using in-game preset to high, very high or insane which is way better than using GFE. Its a matter of preference you may or may not like this.

    Best free AVs which don't slow your computer down and have no ads or nags to upgrade:

    - Bitdefender Free (you need to create an account though)
    - 360 Security Essential AKA Qihoo Antivirus (if you don't mind installing an AV from China) = https://www.360totalsecurity.com/en/features/360-total-security-essential/
    - Windows Defender, if you don't mind slowing the computer down as it's one of the heaviest according to AV-Comparatives Performance Tests

    I installed this on my parents win10 machine. Seems to be ok. I'll probably go over there today and see how its working. fwiw, you'll need a free BitDefender account to activate the product. You can create one at this link or just do it when you install.

    RTSS Rivatuner Statistics Server v6.6.0 Final/Stable Download Version 6.6.0

    RTSS To Get Vulkan Overlay and Videocapture support

    "If you have been working with software like MSI AfterBurner then you guys know there is a secondary software installation called RTSS. This is short for Rivatuner Statistics server. This API is responsible for the text overlay but also allows video capturing. Good news, Vulkan support is almost finished. In our latest beta Unwinder has added full support for Vulkan, this means that starting with the RTSS 6.6.0 public release (to be released hopefully later this week), you will be able to fun stuff in Vulkan titles. Now we know there is just one title, Doom. So here's a teaser of what Unwinder has been working at to get supported"

    I have the paid version of it, so this is a welcomed update. It has been a long time. Thank you for the heads up. I just updated from the 3a2 beta from 2015 that I was using.
