The differences between the factory operating system and this custom optimization build become instantly apparent when examining system diagnostics right after a clean installation.
Unlike the official ISO, Ghost Spectre removes hundreds of non-essential system components, Xbox services (optional), tracking features, and pre-installed applications. The result is an operating system that uses significantly less RAM and CPU idle time, making it ideal for competitive gaming and low-spec PCs. Key Features and Enhancements
