    I tried maxing everything out, and it's pretty laggy (there's a delay in scrolling and such, although the animation still looks good when my camera is still).

    Is this what everyone else is getting? Using latest Dox's drivers btw.

    Thanks

    I maxed out as well, and as you say, performance wasn't smooth enough on 1920x1200.

    I would suggest dropping it down to 1680x1050 or 1440x900 if you don't want to drop graphical settings.

    Using OEM drivers as this machine is still mostly work book and game on my Desktop (GTX 260).

    EDIT: Sorry for bumping I just noticed this was old.
