I just bought a brand new Dell Inspiron 17R with Radeon graphics card installed, and im trying to play League Of Legends and once i got in the game it lagged beyond belief, any solutions?
 
Solution
I would suggest update your GPU driver Catalyst, preferably Catalyst 14.4 than 14.9 if you can't find 14.4 use 14.9 (beta) and clean install. Most likely gpu driver issue is the cause of lag.
You may use the driver Cd along with your system of get driver here:

Mobile graphics>Radeon HD series (you can either use auto-detect)

Check the game, if probs still there, tweak Catalyst and make sure the game .exe in in the list and in high settings.

If you could monitor the temp of your cpu. http://www.alcpu.com/CoreTemp/
- tho it is brand new, you wanna make sure you're system is in good condition.
