hi friends, stargardts person here. i like to use Winfoes Magnifier on a separate, smaller screen that sits below my monitor for magnifying text. It works great for some things like web browsing, but I play a lot of video games. However, it doesn't work for games that use an FPS perspective, because the windows magnifier causes some strange mouse latency that is noticeable when you need precision. In other instances, like strategy games and the like, it usually works just fine except that it seems to be extremely poorly optimized and causes a lot of crashes. I was playing Kenshi recently and the windows magnifier alone caused my whole system to crash, from which I had to do a fairly in depth recovery.

Are there any good magnifier software tools out there? A really great feature is having the option to magnify a specific section of the screen as well, (think for example of there is a chat box in a game, you want that magnified but not necessarily where your mouse is).

If anyone has played eve online, you'd know what I mean when I said there were specific user interface elements I'd be looking to magnify statically rather than having to deal with the jarring magnify-at-cursor tool.
