CS6 incredibly slow


#1

I’ve upgraded from CS to CS6 and I’m having problems. At first it works fine, but then some dialog boxes take ages to open. For example, the png options box takes 2 minutes to open. Also, filter gallery.
I never had these problems with Photoshop CS, even though I was using it with a much older machine.
I have machine with Core i5 4670, but I’m just using integrated graphics. I’m thinking maybe new photoshop needs a high-end graphics card to run properly.
Maybe some older version of Photoshop works better?

Hi,

Try going to Edit>Preferences>Performance.

Here you can adjust various memory and cache options, and crucially turn Off “Use Graphics Processor”. An integrated card probably can’t cut it.
