Hi,

after a frustrating weekend i finally installed Mountain Lion on my System today. Everything seems so work fine except for the onboard Graphics. I don't have a pcie Graphics card installed yet i'm waiting for some cash to buy a gtx 670.

I use the following components:
- Gigabyte z68ma-d2h-b3
- Intel i5 3570k
- 8gb corsair 1600 ram
- samsung 830 ssd (OSX)
- samsung hd (Win7)

i get Artifacts when i open and close the Notification Center, also when i open a new tab in Safari the "Top Sites" that are shown flicker like hell! It seems like i only have 64 mb memory for the graphics card, that's what it shows in the System Info. The setting in the bios is at 64mb but i think OSX should ignore that and set it to 512mb. I'm not sure if this is the cause for the problems! Also i only get a bad resolution on my screen it's only 1024x1080. I already added a 1920x1080 line in the plist like someone suggested in another thread but it didn't help. I have a 27" display with 2560x1440 so this resolution is killing me there a 2 huge black bars left and right xD

Hope some of you Guys can help me out

Cheers Bernie
