What to do if the result is not what you expected…

Sometimes your GPU doesn’t perform as well as you thought it could. To improve this, you should try updating your graphics driver. It won’t significantly improve your GPU performance, but it can help you make the best of its power.

If you don’t have the time, patience or skills to update your drivers manually, you can do it automatically with Driver Easy.

You don’t need to know exactly what system your computer is running, you don’t need to risk downloading and installing the wrong driver, and you don’t need to worry about making a mistake when installing. Driver Easy handles it all.

1) Download and install Driver Easy.

2) Run Driver Easy and click the Scan Now button. Driver Easy will then scan your computer and detect any problem drivers.

3) Click the Update button next to your GPU to download the correct version of its driver, then you can manually install it. Or click the Update All button at the bottom right to automatically update all the drivers. (This requires the Pro version — you will be prompted to upgrade when you click Update All. You get full support and a 30-day money back guarantee.)

You can do this for free if you like, but it’s partly manual.
If you need assistance, please contact Driver Easy’s support team at support@drivereasy.com.

Hopefully one of the methods above has helped you benchmark your GPU. If you have any questions or suggestions, you’re more than welcome to leave us a comment below.
