[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1630819"] The 9400M on that machine just can't handle FullHD well (720p = perfectly fine). It's a six year old computer, what do you think I'm going to suggest? :) I upgraded from that model to a mid-2012 (essentially the same model as Apple is selling today as the low-end MBP, only *with* an optical drive), and couldn't be happier. 4x more powerful video card, RAM expansion to 16GB, BT 4.0 to take advantage of certain Yosemite features, this thing runs like a dream (and doesn't choke on graphically-intense programs like the 2009 did).
