Try disabling overlay or changing the video output module:

Are you graphics drivers up to date etc.? Does OpenGL (with overlay/acceleration enabled) improve it or is it about the same?

yea, openGL and Directx look about the same and improve, it is still laggy but it is better (yet still unwatchable)
