Solution
You're definitely extra crippling your GPU with both slow and a single stick of memory they are both VERY important with onboard video

Temps hover around the 60 to 70 mark
and clock speed on cpu is around 3.8

did notice that integrated graphics clock was only at 350 mhz
when it should be at 750..
not sure if this is due to the single stick of ram or something else

So you think changing the ram out for faster ddr3 and possibly two sticks of 4 instead of the one stick of 8 would result in better performance?

Many Thanks
