Minimal Framerate

I have just got a brand new PC and i’m finding that, even though all my drivers are installed and up to date, I am unable to play SC at more than 20fps. Considering the spec I’d imagine this would be feasible from this machine.

 

Logs and DxDiag are attached, please let me know if I’m doing something wrong here. My graphics config is also attached.

Does your CPU have an included GPU?If yes, make sure that you run the game via the external GPU.

Integrated graphics are not usually good to put on gaming computers, you should get a dedicated graphics card for good performance.
