Title: photoshop Lagging?!
Post by: Snake X on October 06, 2012, 11:20:14 pm

This shouldnt be happening on a computer of this caliber.. lol

Seriosly. I bought creative suite 6 design standard (at educational discount yesterday) and installed photoshop 64 bit and its LAGGING!

LAGGING!

It mostly laggs when I'm zooming in/out and moving my cursor around the image its pretty choppy. http://i45.tinypic.com/2ic2k5x.png

I have the following:

nvidia gtx 460 (msi hawk edition 1 GB vram)
g.skill ripjaw 4 gb memory (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231427)
intel i5-2500k

Seriously with that kinda stuff how can it be lagging? The only thing i can figure out is if i need more ram

By the looks of how much RAM you still have free (~29%) that wont help much, if at all.
All I can think of that would help would be to make sure all your drivers are up to date.
Can you run photoshop from a console and see if it throws any errors that could be helpful?

[Windows]+r, then type cmd and press OK, then in the black window (the console, meet him and be polite ;) ), type photoshop and press [Enter].

Well, you have to cd to where photoshop.exe is before.
