Diablo III running slowly

Samuel · Posted: 20 May 2012 07:09 pm Post subject: Diablo III running slowly

The gameplay itself seems to be unbearable it's so slow, any way to fix this?
I have an Asus I bought in 2011, and altogether everything I bought was $1200. I know that it's a gaming laptop because when I bought it at Best Buy, it was a cancelled order and it had lots of good upgrades in it just for gaming. Any suggestions? I would be really disappointed if it resorted to me selling D3 because theres no way in hell I'm going to sell this laptop, it's great. Every other game runs perfect on this, EXCEPT D3

D3 sucks in general. It's not your computer.

If you did paid 1200$ for this one year ago you should have at least :
- core i5 2.6 ghz
- 4 go ram
- gt 3xx

Or something around (just post them ..)
This is perfect for run it, just don't forget to :
- get the last update of your video card driver.
- get last operating system update.
- check the game settings, for me it was all high by default, and i was running very slow.
- also it could come from servers.

i have a $1300 i7 macbook pro and it's sad that it can't run d3 in lowest settings and in window mode. My 6 year old windows laptop runs it better.

In general, I think laptops are just not ideal for gaming. I did notice that playing in windowed mode helped a little bit. At least I can play the AH!

A few things I would try before bashing the game ( because it runs fine for me besides the occasional server lag):
1. Update Graphics Card Drivers.
2. Drop Shadow Details.
3. Try using 'GameBooster 3.0'

you didn't mention anything about your video card... and expensive laptop from bestbuy doesn't mean it can game lol.
my mom bought a 500$ pc from best buy that can't run shit and i built a gaming one for 280.

did you pay for a normal laptop loaded with useless software labeled as "upgrades"?
what are you pc specs?

I had the same problem with my computer running the game. Also, my comp kept overheating too. I used some dustoff to blow it out and lowered the gamplay settings and haven't had a problem since then. Just something that is cheap to try and see if it works.
