Just got my new build, based on a GA-880GMA-UD2H with integrated Radeon 4250. I tried playing some lower-end 3D games just to see how far the IGP could take me, and it totally choked on pretty much everything. Even Stalker on the lowest settings which I was able to play with my last IGP. Fine, maybe the IGP just sucks. Then I was watching a movies and in a few scenes where the camera pans a lot it got really slow, to the point where I could actually see the frame changes, and it burned my eyes. I expected it to at least be able to handle movies, so now I think that there's something wrong.
I got all the drivers from the gigabyte website. The AMD SATA RAID Driver and AMD SATA ACHI Driver gave me error messages and didn't install, but everything else did. I don't think I've changed any of the settings on my monitor since my last computer, so I don't think its a problem there. What is everyone else's experience with this IGP? And if this is not normal, how can I fix it?
