[QUOTE="jay_galway, post: 327621, member: 30021"] You serious, my laptop is old like over 4 years etc. I wouldnt expect a skin to be that intensive, I mean what animations are there? Other than changing the background now and then and the odd reflection? I would be surprised if that hits the CPU badly. Also I actually run this in 1920x1080 anyway, Im more interested in there being more space for text and icons etc? If the performance is the issue, it makes me wonder what the average user is using for a HTPC, seen as my laptop is probably one of the worst performers out there. Sounds unlikely that over 50% of users would not be able to use it. I still cant understand how the skin can hammer the GPU? Please explain. :thx: [/QUOTE]
