[QUOTE="artek, post: 909861, member: 22897"] afaik from the fine print in the benchmarks of their marketing material, it would help with performance impact while running external software in addition to your games. So things like chorme, discord, etc. If you close those out anyway while you're gaming, you're not likely to see much of a benefit. But it is very lightweight, and non-bloat, which is what was attractive about it to me. Third party firewall is no good for gamers, neither are 99% of the other AV features. The part that I've always wondered about is how it measures up in detection and protection vs. the other McAfee and non-McAfee av-software. But since almost no one has tested that, it's hard to say. What I'd like to see them do is take the feature set found in the intelligent standby cleaner list and bundle that into Gamer Security. [/QUOTE]
