Since aero reduces performance in games, it has been turned off for a long time. ---

> [@Raes\_Ongrard](#): > > This I do not know how to do but I will try. It’s in the escape menu, graphics, the “interval” setting. Can you image?! I look at it a few times per week and can’t remember it now when I need it. This would help with overheating issues. You have to be aware of the fact that when your notebook is several years old it might benefit from being opened, the heat sinks removed, cleaned and the CPU/GPU repasted. And why did you mention OpenGL settings? The game does not use OpenGL. And what about upgrading to windows 10? ---

So far I’m not completely sure, but it seems that my problems are over. I set the interval - immediate. In addition, I found 15.7 Сatalist modified drivers with enabled OpenCL and they work fine. I believe that the problem is in: 1. Vertical synchronization - right is Interval Immeditate. 2. Bugged 16.2 and other same Catalyst drivers.

> [@Raes\_Ongrard](#): > > Vertical synchronization - right is Interval Immeditate. I’m glad your issues got resolved! 😃 What’s your FPS? You can see them pressing CTRL+F. With “interval immediate” your computer now runs the game as fast as it can. If that’s not causing problems, then overheating wasn’t the issue. I don’t know if Windows 10 on tablets is the actually same on desktops. I doubt it, because I would hate it. =(^\_^)= ---

At the best graphics settings, I now have 18 fps. At worst - 60. I think that it is not very much, but at least I do not fly in the dark. This is what happens during long-haul flights. ![111](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/3X/e/e/ee860fc0c8129b6f673a402703b7a5264ec88739.gif) ![222](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/3X/d/6/d68563ce29fe885c168e365d818d1afd331dcae3.gif) tablet Yes. Windows takes 700mb. 1 GB of memory. Therefore, any applications are divided into many small packages and so are executed. This is called optimization. But Eve doesn’t work like that ( Besides, it’s very difficult to configure anything. The user’s capabilities are minimal. ---

This looks alright! Have you tried putting Linux onto it and running EVE in WINE? That’d still be cheaper on RAM if you do it right. I see now that apparently your graphics chip does not have dedicated RAM. In your BIOS there should a be setting which allows you to increase or lower the amount of system RAM being reserved for the graphics chip. Though, considering that your issue got resolved, I guess there’s no need to tinker with that. ---

Unfortunately, this motherboard does not open additional settings even when I try to install a modified BIOS. Already tried. BIOS settings are set once and for all. So plans to make money on something more modern and customizable. Linux? No, I don’t have time for this. TY and GL ) ---
