IntelGuy Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 The first thing to try is to update your video drivers. You can get the latest driver from here: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IntelGuy Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Try turning off some of the eye candy. You can go to Control Panel>System>Advanced tab>Performance Settings>Visual Effects. You can select "Adjust for best performance" or "Custom" and select just the features you want. Unchecking "Smooth edges of screen fonts" may be enough to raise the 2D score and most like;y will not be very noticeable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
