Need help making my MSI GTX 640 run smoother/faster. Its only really used form HD films. Dont do much gaming if any. It tends to run a little `jerky' when played back over my Viera LCD via a HDMI connection. I tried changing the refresh rate from 50HZ to 60 or higher and doesn`t help. Have MSI afterburner but no clue as to what to tweak to help it run better. Any help would be appreciated.

Yep. will give it a try. Thanks.....but one snag this `lag/jerkiness' with the HD film playback isn't noticeable on my small desktop monitor which I can only connect with the DVI socket. Its when I run it through HDMI to my Viera. So by going through the Intel processor via DVI is not going to tell anything...or is it? Hope that makes it a little clearer.

Just did a benchmark test with Heaven and I got 50% less in performance results than I did a few months ago.
FPS 6.2 12.6
Score 155/ 529
min FPS 2.4/8.5
max FPS 10.5/22.5
2nd column is older results from 6 months ago. why would I get a lower result the 2nd time around running the same stress tests? Still having jumpy video playback via GTX640/ HDMI. Still need help guys. thanks

If more screenshots will help then let me know. still have a very jumpy graphics card/ would trying it in another PCI slot help? I believe its in PCI 3.0...but Im going to try swapping into another slot just as a test. Also need to take out the GPU card to try the Intel GPU and see if the problem persists. The problem is on both my screens and seems a tad less noticeable on WMP/ But I only ever use VLC/ Are there any settings I should check in VLC that might help this problem?

Might just clear up if its the GT640 or not.Are you sure you are running it at the correct resolution on the TV? If you set to the wrong one it will have to scale it (which could cause issues like this)
Should I set it to the highest resolution? 1080i or 1080p? And the refresh rate? which is better?

CPU doesnt get any hotter when loaded (the screen shot was under no load)?
1080p @60hz is better if your display supports it.

Hmm okay. how do I go about that? never done it before...but I did read somewhere that updating the BIOS can be harmful? True? More importantly is there a way to check if I have the most up to date BIOS version? Guess that should have been my first question
Update on above info ...BIOS version is 0809 16/05/2014.

Try this newer version:
http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LGA1150/H87-PLUS/H8...
Includes the updater software so you can do it from windows.
Its very low risk these days, just dont pull the power cord out or turn the computer off while its updating.
