I found a little way to get a quick boost out of your GPU.

If you bought from HP or Dell or some company like that, they entirely skipped this step (HP sure did, some others might have not)

1. Go into your BIOS and go over to advanced.

2. Go to "Primary video adapter" and press enter.

3. Select "PCI-E x16" or" PCI-E x16 2.0" depending on where your graphics card is (the primary one if you have multiple).

You see a boost by a few frames. It rather entirely wiped out lag in one of my games. The results can vary. Reply to this topic and tell me how much of a performance increase you get.
