What I want is smooth scrolling of text that's easy on the eyes, video that doesn't flicker or tear, and accurate color rendering. Also, since I donate computers when I get newer ones, it's an overall optimum scenario I'm hoping for. We'll all be doing a lot of Zoom and watching YouTube or Netflix. A couple of young kids may use it from time to time for education, learning graphic design and video editing, and I'm sure they'll want to do a little gaming. Perhaps I should detail more what I'm using the NUC for.įor myself, I'll be using the NUC for web development and graphic design and general business. What I'm looking for here is overall graphic performance which, I totally admit is vague, but I think it's a valid desire. If I go to the doctor with a skin infection it's a lot easier to diagnose and treat than something like complaining that I wish I had more energy.
I did change the subject to make it more specific. The only real problems at the moment I've found are when I resize Zoom windows or go to full screen there is some unnatural flickering and strange pixel behavior that ceases after resize. Any suggestions for improvements would be welcome. So the main players here seem BIOS, picom, and any software I could install. Except for some personal preference tweaks concerning shadow radius and offset, the only major change I made was to set backend as glx rather than the default xrender and vsync true. With LXQt I use kwin and with Openbox I use picom for compositing. Whether or not that helps I would like to know.
However, even using Option "TearFree" "true" in the end I found the modesetting driver worked better for my setup, so I'm using that. At first I installed and used Intel's xf86-video-intel drive because it seemed logical Intel should work best with Intel.
I'm pretty satisfied with how things are working. I'm basically interested in any insights on how to tweak the BIOS, picom, or what software to install to get the best possible graphic performance. I'm posting this question especially concerning two NUC8i5BEH computers that I have that use Intel Iris Plus Graphics 655, but this might relate to any Intel chip.
