I just got an AMD R7 240 (1GB DDR3) low profile graphics card to run in Dell Optiplex 755 (Xeon x3363, 8GB RAM, 249GB SSD, WinXP Pro) and it instantly gave me an headache.
Currently I use HD8490 graphics card that works reasonably well (Stalker COP in 1024x768, max details, full dynamic lighting), but I wanted to change it for something better.
On a paper, R7 is better in every single way (128bit VRAM vs 64bit, better GPU), but its perormance is way worse than on HD8490, abovementioned Stalker is a slide-show.
I tried 3 different drivers, but nothing changed.
I ran out of ideas, I'd appreciate some help.
