Anyone with this graphic card who experienced some troubles in the beginning? I just got it and it's laggy, windows takes 30 mins to boot, CS has liek 10-100 fps and spikes etc...

I got the latest drivers so I don't know what's wrong

Anyone? <3

Pros: This thing runs cool, uses little power, and does what I want it to do, which isn't play games, but to watch HD content. It also matches everything in my case.

Cons: None yet.

Other Thoughts: I'm not a gamer, so I can't rate this on gaming, but I can rate it on video performance, and it's excellent. I play an occassional game here and there and i'll add to this later when I do, but I don't think it will matter because serious gamers aren't looking at this card anyway. This is a good budget card and it plays the part well.

Ait, but it still doesn't explain why it takes windows 30 min to boot etc :p And shouldn't it be able to run CS, which si from 1998, with 100 fpZ? feil

booting has to do with ur hard-drive
i had a similar problem and i solved by getting a 7200rpm hard-drive, instead of my default drive (5400rpm). I have a 3650mobile and it does a very job on every game except WC3. I get about 40~60fps on dota and i have no idea why.

did you just install it? try removing it and trying with inbuilt or other gfx card.
can you rephrase that in the form of a hamburger?
