    so I received my m17x a few days ago and I had really great FPS and I downloaded the catalyst software suite and went in the control center to change the 3D settings and I put everything on "max quality" and since that I always have bad FPS .... ?? What's the point of installing the control center if it makes me lag?

    I had no lag when I only had video drivers without all that Catalyst crap
