Hi,

I got the Asus 6450 (EAH6450 SILENT/DI/1GD3(LP)) for my HTPC - replacing the onboard Intel HD 2000. So now my kids can use it for Minecraft etc also. But I have some issues with it.

1. Artifacts.
Some graphics (e.g. in webpages) show strange artifacts. Typically images that are distorted 50%.

2. Performance.
Running the "Windows Experience Index" my graphics went from 5.0 to 4.4! Shouldn't that be better than the onboard Intel HD 2000?

I'm running Windows 8 with newest AMD/Asus drivers 9.2.

What could be the cause of this?

Did you install the latest drivers for it? Try doing that if you haven't done so, yet. :)

Yes, I have installed the newest drivers from Asus version 9.2, I have also tried "stock" Catalyst drivers version 12.104 (newest). Same result...

then the rating is wrong,sometimes it happens. Which OS are u using?i think win7,right? Doing a clean installation helps. Leave the rating,is the gpu performing worse than the hd2000? What cpu do u have?

As I wrote, I'm using Windows 8 - a fresh (but updated) install btw. And the rating isn't the only thing. Also the artifacts indicates something is wrong. I have an Intel Core i3 2100T CPU.
