Ok so I have a few things I want to clear up. Most games I play don't run very well and I feel with my set up I should get decent frames in most game. ffxiv, wildstar cs:go titanfall diablo 3 and a few others I have to play on low(they play very stuttery and choppy). I don't feel this should be the case.

I have an asrock z77 ex4 mobo with a sapphire 7870, 8 gb ram, cx500 psu. I used lucid virtu when I first build the pc but have since figured it to be useless so I uninstalled it. I disabled the onboard graphics in my bios and currently just my 7870 is listed in the DM.

So my question is this. Should I leave the hd4000 drivers on the pc(they show up in add/rem program list). Could this be causing some kind of complication or making the 7870 not perform optimally?

Other then that I don't know what my problem could be so to this point ive just lived with it but as I was clearing out the add rem prog list I noticed them and it sparked something and now Im on a path to get this thing running like it should.

Any help would be greatly appreciated and I know this is best place to start. Thanks guys!

Could you tell us your cpu model because they also have a lot of influence on playing games specially games like wildstar. If you feel like the hd4000 is causing the problem you can always disable it with device manager.

In this case I would remove all your gpu drivers with a cleaning prog. and install the newest amd catalyst driver.
