Hello, I am struggling with my brush. I have researched this question for a couple of days but I can not find a video that pertains to my question, please help!

Basically, I have no issue with lagging when I draw bold straight lines but when I use attempt to make very small brush strokes, it stalls on me. I have tested this on clip studio and I do not encounter the problem. I would rather/prefer to use Photoshop for my sketches and painting so I can get the best results with the most amount of customization.

Estimating exact issue is not possible for me. I will still try to suggest few things.

  1. RAM is good and I believe shifting to 16 GB is not recommended right now as the i3 will be the bottleneck.
  2. As its integrated graphics of Intel getting basic into advanced setting of performance is good choice.
  3. You can increase cache to 4 or 6, and cache size to 1024k in performance tab of preference. That will surely meet your need of brushing and boost your performance.

Do reply doest it help.

Try reducing RAM usage as it is beyond the recommended usage of 4914 MB.

It would be better to leave some RAM for rest of the system to use.
