30. Define the applications to accelerate by clicking Program Prioritized by

FirstPacket.

31.Click Add to browse for an executable gamming applications. For example, if you want to accelerate a game such as Serious Sam 2, look for the Sam2.exe and add it.

32.Click Apply.

Note: Only applications that are added to the Programs Prioritized by FirstPacket section are prioritized and benefit from FirstPacket technology

TCP/IP Acceleration

Note: Enabling TCP/IP acceleration enhances your network performance but can cause your network traffic to bypass the firewall because all processes are off-loaded to the hardware.

NVIDIA TCP/IP Acceleration technology is a networking solution that moves the processing of TCP/IP network traffic from your computer’s CPU to its nForce hardware resulting in greatly improved system performance.

NVIDIA TCP/IP Acceleration provides deep levels of networking and traffic inspections at full-duplex gigabit Ethernet speeds. Overall system performance is greatly improved because the CPU is not tied up processing network traffic, especially at gigabit Ethernet speed.
