Are you running any other application at the same time? Or you might have installed tons of apps that eat up cpu usage.

Also check CPU and GPU Usage and Temp.

then make sure your video plugin is like this [Image: Capture8.png?t=1395761972] tis should work if not your video card drive is causing it to run slow.

By the way, unless your CPU is penta-core (which i doubt), extra rendering threads should be set to 3 instead.

you know what, i tried putting my resolution back up to ware it was before, 1440x900 (my display res), but it started lagging. so i tried to update my vid drover, i had the latest. so i ROLLED BACK my vid driver, and presto! it works at 60fps on highest resolution my screen can handle. weird, it's like amd drivers are getting worse, not better.
