    Hey folks

    I was in a hurry and had to buy a Laptop asap, so i bought the Asus Pro
    it seem´s to be a fast laptop 3gb ddr3 ram? well that´s more then my tower.

    onboard grafic? jeah... i know but even this seems to be okay.


    The Laptop is incredibly slow, it takes hours to start
    It lags as soon i have some programs running the same time.

    but hey please keep reading that´s not all.

    I know it´s not a gaming notebook but even my old old old packard bell was faster then the ASUSpro ( at all games cs go , rust etc.)

    i m pretty sure i have the latest updates of all hardware installed. but you can judge



    Now question for you. Is it normal i can t play games like cs go or rust ( lowest graphics) having 7-14 fps?

    Can i do something more? is there anyway out of it without buying a new notebook? cause i really dont have the money...

    i watched a tutorial to overglock your onboard graphics but i m not a specialist so im a bit curious..
    .
    Overclocking, overclocking, and much more! Like overclocking.
    thats my system Intel Core i3-3120M CPU @ 2500.0MHz - 244 XTU marks on HWBOT
    which include processor powercurrent etc.

    ps: i cancelled all things, i dont need, running in the background... i m running windows 7 64 bit without windows aero features
    and i probably did all the silly tricks which you can find in the internet... so might overglocking be the only chance?

    you can find my dxdiag file below

    Thank you in advance

    you can find my dxdiag file below

    General usage can be sped up via an ssd, make sure no required applications start on boot. Check your ram configuration in gpu-z make sure you are running in dual channel. What speed is the ram?

    When on what is the idle cpu usage like? Are any processes hogging resources? How much ram is free/being used to cache data?
