    This is a common complaint. It is not its strongest point.

    If you have good lighting the framerate may get better. In darker environments it struggles.

    You can tweak the camera settings in the control panel and reduce the filters to get rid of some processing overhead. It might not help much but you can play around with it and see.

    I believe AllurG means the filters within the ASUS lifeframe application.
