However, we saw our frame rate drop from the low 40s to the mid-30s while using the zipline with the boost enabled, a considerable drop in performance. Our average FPS was 45 on Apex, with and without Cortex's Prime Boost mode. Improvements were relatively minimal with the older PC. So we tested both machines on 2 games, Apex Legends, and Warhammer: Vermintide II, to cover both a regular boost and a Prime Boost game. Thanks for reading.As you can see, both machines aren't top-tier and could benefit from a boost to their gaming performance.

I have 16GB of ram and from this problem alone the non paged pool goes so high to 6gb of ram wasted and makes my computer slow down.

So anyways the conclusion remove Razer Cortex from your computer to avoid these memories leaks and low performance. And a big pile of RAM you may not notice it but Razer Cortex creates a lot of non paged pool RAM usage its a memory leak, at first when you start your computer you wont have any issues but after a few hours of computer usage you are forced to restart because of the memory leak i used the program poolmon to investigate where was this coming from and these two tags pop out:Īfter that i used the program WPA.exe to trace where they were coming from and in fact RazerCortex.exe which occurs while creating files KernelBase.dll!CreateFileWThis also causes the IRP (which stands for I/O request packet) usage Razer Cortex eats a lot of your performance by secretly grabing a lot of your percentage of you CPU usage. As the tittle suggest i don't know if this is a known issue or not but Razer Cortex is a big pile of mess supposed to be a way of getting a big performance boost for your games and pc, but for me and others it is not.
