Someone here can tell what affects "Fill Rate" ? that's some performance indicator on graphics options screen.
Vid RAM ? Vid Ram Speed ? CPU Speed ? Something else ?

The fillrate usually refers to the number of pixels a video card can render and write to video memory in a second. In this case, fillrates are given in megapixels per second or in gigapixels per second (in the case of newer cards), and they are obtained by multiplying the number of raster operations (ROPs) by the clock frequency of the graphics processor unit (GPU) of a video card. However, there is no agreement on how to calculate and report fillrates. Other possible methods are: to multiply the number of texture units by the clock frequency, or to multiply the number of pixel pipelines by the clock frequency.
In other words, the fillrate is affected by Vid Ram and Vid Ram Speed but most of all by the Vid Ram Speed.

Thanks... found the problem. Desktop PC has 2 Monitors (great for modeling and painting) and uses dualview feature. But looks like that badly slowed down graphics. Did some fixing on settings; significantly faster now
