So I have a descent computer that still can run high-end games on medium to max settings, but the majority of the time it's useless background processes that use up valued resources. Is there a way to run a computer with very basic functionality to maximize the resources available to the game?

My specs:
OS: Windows 10 Home
Processor: Intel i3 4130 @3.40GHz
Ram: 8GB
GPU: AMD Radeon HD 7700 Series
