How repairing brush lag in Photoshop CC with a Cintiq 13 HD (on apple OS of Mavericks)?

I bought a Cintiq 13 HD a month ago and have been using it with Photoshop to make a book cover and teach the concept art in a University.

All with Adobe Photoshop was working fine, I can remember / noticed, until this last week or so.

All of a sudden, there is a significant amount of lag brush - to the point of being completely unusable Photoshop.

I spent hours pouring through the web looking for answers, but nothing helped.

In Photoshop, however, need anywhere from a very small delay a full delay 1 sec - subsequently the brush * usually * catches back up with me.

If I try to quickly write a dozen little lines, sometimes shots of Photoshop brushes completely ignores, or only put a brush stroke 'space' or stamp, what you call.

This happens even if I use the most basic airbrush with the settings by default - I'll have a delay, an occasional skipped stroke altogether, and a little casual point where I started the brush stroke followed by nothing until I lift the pen and go to the next race.

I also use Corel Painter X 3 in my work, and there is no lag whatsoever. I scribbling a dozen tiny lines as fast as I can and the Cintiq and Corel Tenez_ you right with me.

I tried to play with the GPU and OpenGL, nothing helps. My GPU drivers are up-to-date (I'm on a mac, so it's automatic). I tried to change the Performance of basic, Normal and Advanced preferences (being sure to restart Photoshop every time) without any real solution. (I say that changing settings advanced GPU seems to produce a record a little more quickly in general, but not in the sense as I speak to you in this post. Exactly the kind of regular shift of what is expected.)

I'm on a Macbook Pro for mid-2010

Intel Core i5 to 2.53 GHz

8 GB Ram

NVIDIA GeForce GT 330 M 512 MB graphics card

With the help of an SSD drive 512 GB of free space

OS X 10.9.5

All Adobe products are completely up to date and I tried to reinstall the drivers of the Cintiq.

I'm out of ideas.

At my University I'll teach my class the basics of the design of the vehicles soon here, and I would prefer to use Photoshop to the painter for this sort of thing, because its not superior paint tools. But I cannot paint when my brush strokes randomly not appear on the screen, or lag, so I don't see what I'm doing if I work quickly.

Thank you for your help.

Solution found!

The problem is in the pilot of the Cintiq.

I thought about it because as I go to Corel to do my work, I noticed that my lines were shaky.

Really, really irritating.

But... when looking for solutions to this problem, I saw that most of the people it is resolved by installing older versions of the drivers.

I installed Cintiq 13HD pilot 6.5.3-5, since March of 2013

Works like a charm.

It is this new, bad driver 6.3.9 - 3 that was the problem on all accounts.

Such a relief!
