PC Game Booster FAQs

We changed the name to better reflect the core functionality and purpose of the software. While "Game Fire" was a great brand, "PC Game Booster" more clearly and directly communicates what the software does: it boosts your computer's performance and reliability to achieve a smoother, more responsive gaming experience.

Please rest assured that this is only a name change. PC Game Booster retains all the same powerful functionality and features you loved in Game Fire. It's the same trusted tool, now with a name that instantly tells new users exactly what to expect.

PC Game Booster is a powerful game booster that can enhance your gaming experience with just one click. By optimizing your computer's performance, it can allow games and applications to fully utilize all available system resources, resulting in a smoother and more enjoyable gaming experience.

PC Game Booster boosts your computer's performance in several ways. It suspends unnecessary Windows features, optimizes system memory, tweaks Windows scheduled tasks, turns off background processes, defrags game files, and applies various system tweaks. These optimizations not only improve system performance and reliability, but also enhance your overall gaming experience.

One of the most convenient features of PC Game Booster is that you can manage and access all favorite games from a single user interface. You can easily access this interface using a hotkey, saving you time and effort in searching for your games.
