I haven't install freeware anti-virus program just yet.

Always keep low processess as much you can and run games will go smooth without interface from other apps running in background and sluggish frame rates depends on games you are running with.

Why some ppl let anti-virus apps running in background while play games ?

There's no real need for an anti-virus program if you know what you're downloading.

Even if you are downloading, just scan it at www.virustotal.com

So much easier than having an anti-virus clog up your system resources.

A better approach is to run a clean boot so nothing starts but with Windows 7 but your AV.

Uncheck everything except AV in msconfig>Startup, after reboot enter msconfig>Services to Hide All MS Services, uncheck everything except AV again.

Check back after several reboots to see if anything writes itself back in, turn it off in its Program Prefs or uninstall it.

You now have a clean boot with only programs you open running up your CPU/RAM..
