The Optimize Page in RIP Reticle
Optimize is a Premium page inside RIP Reticle. It applies a focused set of changes aimed at aiming feel and frame consistency, rather than the broad system tuning that RIP Tweaks does.

How it relates to RIP Tweaks
If you already use RIP Tweaks and have worked through Input Lag and your graphics tweaks, Optimize covers similar ground and you will see less from it. If RIP Reticle is the only one of our apps you use, it is the quickest way to get the input side sorted.
Before you run it
If you also have RIP Tweaks installed, make a restore point there first. It is the same PC and the same Windows settings, so one restore point covers both.
If you are on the free tier
Optimize is locked and the app will say so. Your three free crosshairs and the FPS counter keep working exactly as before.
Measuring whether it helped
Use the FPS counter before and after, and watch the one per cent low rather than the average. That number is what stutter feels like, and it is the one most likely to move.
