Maybe the i3 has a ridiculously slow cpu clock? I had an i7 laptop for work that was painfully slower than an old c2d laptop i bought.

t520 i7 1.6ghz v t400 c2d 2.4ghz

Every computer I own runs better with Windows 8 then Windows 7. Maybe I got lucky with GPU compatibility but my main CPU is the original dual core from 2006. I doubt the i3 is the problem unless its a GPU conflict or some sort or 3rd party "crapware".

Every computer I own or use runs better with Linux Mint than with Windows.
