Anyone running Creo 3 on MacBook and Apple 27" display - hows your graphics?

I know its not a supported configuration, so please don't tell me that.

 

I am running Windows 10 (not supported by PTC) a Retina MacBook Pro early 2013 (not supported by PTC), which runs Creo just fine so long as its on the built in display. (15.4" color display with 2880x1800 native resolution - aprox 5.1Mpixels)

 

When I plug in the external monitor on a Thunderbolt connection, (2560x1440 resolution - aprox 3.7 Mpixels) so in theory about 1/3 less pixels, Creo3 M060 the pan, rotate etc are incredably "laggy" and jump in big steps.  It seems to make no difference if I use the


I just reactivated my SolidWorks license and for comparison exported a STEP file from Creo3 to SolidWorks.  It rotates fast and smoothly with no 'tweaking' of graphics settings.


I have tried the obvious stuff

  • updating drivers
  • changing shade quality to low
  • changing line quality to low
  • switching off all datums
  • trying wireframe etc - yes, that's right, even in wireframe it runs like a dog!


Are there any users out there running the same or similar "common" in the real world setup - but not in the PTC Creo one - who have similar issues they have solved.  If so, how did you do it please?


Thanks


Stephen
