It's out of beta and now full and final.

Designed to help optimize your PC for smoother, more responsive game play in the latest PC games with the touch of a button, Game Booster helps achieve the performance edge previously only available to highly technical enthusiasts. It works by temporarily shutting down background processes, cleaning RAM, and intensifying processor performance. That means you can keep all the features of Microsoft® Windows Vista® and XP® ready for when you need them, but turn them off when you are ready to get down to serious business – gaming. Game Booster makes it simpler to enjoy the latest games and take your experience to a new level. All systems go!

Have you noticed any significant increase in speed using this? I have been using it since a couple of beta's back, but forget about half the time to turn it on.
I can say that I haven't noticed any lagging or slowing of a game when its running.

You can configure windows to do something similar, but this seems like a good idea, if all you need is one click of the mouse to swith off all the unecessary stuff. I could have done with this when Battlefield 2 first came out as I could only run the game with around 40 bots, even with a lot of background programs turned off, (I used to use a freeware program originally created for the flight sim crowd, that did a similar thing).

I can't play GTA IV on high graphics, but apart from that every other game I've bought recently I can still max out the graphics and play with no problems, though I'm sure I'll need it with even better games on the horizon if I don't upgrade my cpu and graphics cards soon.

Thanks for the heads up

nice one, great piece of software if you have little RAM to spare. Sadly I just lost my giveaway copy of the Pro version due to a system error.

This is a great piece of software. It really can make a big difference if your computer is older or just does not have the best hardware to run a game. It can also be used to speed up your computer for things other then games. I have used it when doing video editing or using other CPU/video card intensive programs.
