Windows 7: Low Graphics System Ratings

najib333 · 11 Sep 2012

Well, i did a system rating for my Laptop and here is what i got:

SPECS:
MS Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit SP1
Intel Core i7-3612QM CPU @ 2.10GHz
12.0GB RAM
Intel HD Graphics 4000
Nvidia GeForce GT 630M

I guess this i why i FPS Lag and Slow load in even a low basic graphics game.
So anyone got any solutions for this? As u can see from my specs, i shouldnt have lagg in a low grphics game.

Help would be much appreciated.
Thank You

I have an i7 3770 desktop and with the Intel HD 4000 graphics I get 6.5 for both graphic parameters.

The laptop and different i7 may be different but not that much. Install the latest Intel HD4000 graphics for your specific CPU and see if that helps.

A 630M should be pulling in more than that.

I'd reset/re-run the assessment.

I had already done that and still the same.

My first thought would be are you using a generic driver

Have you changed any drivers recently ?

it could be a simple tweeking issue i have heard of people getting a new driver by contacting Nvidia

which isn't released yet to help with issues sorta like these

Solarstarshines, the user is using the built in Intel HD 4000 graphics that are on the i7 CPU chip, not an NVIDIA video card.

The user listed both Intel HD Graphics 4000 and Nvidia GeForce GT 630M which would mean it does but has switchable graphics.

I have the same thing on my laptop. It's an nVidia Optimus graphics card. You can run with Intel or nVidia. It usually runs the 630 when you tell it to run programs with it or when the graphics are needed. You can set it to only run either or.

Drivers | GeForce

I didnt change any drivers as this is a newly bought laptop. What i only did is update my NVIDIA driver to a BETA version as the latest version, i got this not compatible error.
