Note
v3.1.1 is now available! Check out the release page for the latest version. If you encounter a Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.B!ml false positive from Microsoft Defender, this is a known heuristic detection — you can safely add an exclusion in Windows Security. A fix reducing this false positive is included in the latest build.
ExaGameBooster™ is a open-source process optimization service for games. This program optimizes core allocations for games to improve performance and reduce lags. We support modern CPU architectures such as AMD 3D V-Cache™ and Intel P+E cores.
This software is provided "as is" without warranty of any kind, either express or implied. Use at your own risk.
- v3.1: Reduced false positive antivirus detections (improved installer, non-solid compression, version info)
- v3.1: Support for new 12/16 core AMD Zen 5 products (9900X, 9900X3D, 9950X, 9950X3D, 9950X3D2)
- v3.1: Support for Intel 14th Gen (Raptor Lake Refresh) desktop CPUs
- v3.1: Support for Intel Arrow Lake (Core Ultra 200 series) desktop CPUs
- Continuous: Support for more games (including V-Cache optimizations)
Simply download and run the Installer.exe executable (administrator privileges required). This will install the service and set up the autostart. You can also just run ExaGameBooster.exe to test without installation/autostart.
NOTE: If your CPU is not in the list, you probably do not need this program. This program solves scheduler problems caused by multi-die CPUs.

ExaGameBooster™ is supported by Windows 10 and 11. We currently do not plan to extend the supported operating systems.
NOTE: We are constantly working to test and add new games. If you would like to see support for specific games, please create an issue on GitHub or email us at [email protected].
Since version v3.0.2 we support ~7200 games. BattlEye and VAC games are now also supported. Please note that some Easy Anti Cheat games are not supported because they block CPU affinity settings.
NOTE: We will wait to add CS2 support until we can test anti-cheat compatibility after the full release and check back with Valve to see if any changes in VAC could affect ExaGameBooster compatibility. This is done to avoid the risk of VAC bans. Please wait until we have clarified this.
