resolution change slows game down

12 December 2016 - 01:29 AM

problem: i dont know why YR slows down when i change res settings to 1920 x 1080 in the game options for both 1 player skirmish and online. not lag just slows down. 

 

attempt at solution: i tried changing FPS to less but it just slows down more, I tried changing the laptop resolution setting to  to less but in game the constructions option are off the screen. thats the only attempt. 

 

system info: not sure what info is relevant but this is what i think would be; the laptop i use is a Dell intel core i7 windows 10,

graphics card i think is intel® HD graphics 520 im not sure what other info i should provide

 

also, the game runs normal at 1366 x 768 res. in the game options ( and i have the screen resolution at 1920 x 1080 for the laptop itself). The laptop itself can go up to 1920 x 1080 on the display settings and thsi is the recommended resolution setting so i know it can handle the 1920 x 1080 resolution (ive read that if the laptop cant handle the res then itll slow down)

 

i should also mention that in order to make the 1920 x 1080 in game resolution work i had to change the size of text, apps, and other items to 100% ( from the recommended 150%) in the display settings for the laptop. if i dont the in game construction options will be off the screen so i cant see them or click them.  If this is the reason maybe someone can help me get the 1920 x 1080 res work some othr way? thanks
