Affinity Photo Extremely Slow

[Gavner 25]

Photo is running very slow on small documents (200px wide at 72 dpi). I'm trying to avoid using Photoshop but when i open it in Photoshop with hardware acceleration turned on using my old Intel 530 processor it works perfectly fine and smooth. With the exact same settings in Affinity it runs like a 20 year old PC. I have already tried the obvious stuff like turning off hardware acceleration etc, but it makes no difference. I installed older versions of AP with no change at all. It wont utilize my Nvidia even if i choose it as the default renderer, so my intel is the only option. However, this issue should not be occurring when Photoshop uses the same settings just fine.

What Nvidia GPU do you have?

Can you run dxdiag from a Windows Command Prompt, and Save its output for us to look at?

Here you go. Also, here is a screen record of the sluggishness in Affinity compared to PS

Thanks. But we need either the .txt file from Save All Information, or at least screenshots of the 2 Display tabs.

Thanks.

Your NVIDIA Quadro M2000M is too old, and does not support Direct3D Feature Level 12, which is required for OpenCL processing in the Affinity applications.

Your Intel HD Graphics 530 does support it.
