<p>I have a ATI proprietary drivers but it makes the Unity 3D very slow except 2D. Like everything works but it runs a bit slow and choppy. You could even see it when you see the loading circles on the Chromium browser. Also it shows choppiness when I have the wobbly windows turned on. Can someone help me fix?</p>
