Norton For Gamers?

[Doug99]

I am currently using Norton 360 for my home/family PC but my son is now looking to buy his own gaming PC.
Is the 'Nortons for Gamers' any significant benefit over the standard Norton 360?
Cheers
Doug

I've only ever used Avast antivirus

Norton is overpriced fearmongering baggageware, sold under a name which last represented something worthwhile over 30 years ago.

Sling it away and buy something vastly better such as Eset.

Windows 10 already has antivirus. The only security measure I use is a free firewall to block everything including microsoft. Beyond that, I back up a small OS drive and practice safe computing of not running anything I don't trust. Most untrusted stuff can be run in a discard-able virtual machine.

And their cheapest ESET NOD32 Antivirus offering is sufficient. It has a "Gamer mode", but I've never found it necessary.
