For constantly running gaming computers we recommend manual defragmentation. Only the gamer himself can
decide when he can afford to lose system performance as a result of defragmentation. Alternatively, we recommend
configuring the O&O ActivityMonitor so that an automatic optimization will not start while a game is running.
For a regular desktop PC, where mainly Internet or office applications are used, or even some games are played, we
recommend keeping the default setup of O&O Defrag. Automatic optimization makes sure that your system is always
running at its optimal performance level without any effort on your part.
For office computers requiring average performance, the rule for for private desktop PCs should apply: We rec-
ommend keeping the default setup of O&O Defrag as it is.
