Champ select lag

So I have been dreading this post every since the new client came out. I have been catious as to not pointlessly voice my concern, out of fear that it would be fixed next patch. It's been a while now, so I think this must be said.

For a long while now, I have been experiencing extreme lag during champ select. So bad to the point that I must close out all apps just to be able to select a champion. The timer constantly skips due to the animations taking a toll on my computer. I have 8gb of ram, but basically a shitty graphics card, so my playing experience must always be on low graphics just to maintain 30fps ( yes I know, I'm not rich enough to buy a new computer, so please spare me with your money talk. I got other issues atm ).

The reason I'm making this post however is that I never had a problem playing league upon my first exposure to it. While playing on low graphics isn't appealing to some, it works enough for me.

My point being, is that I would like to report that the constant freezing disables me from being able to select a champion in champ select, it has gotten to the point, where if I don't spam the accept button ( even when there is 25secs left on clock ) my champion wont be locked in. And even if it is, it does not register until the last secs of the countdown. This has caused dodged timers at least 3 times within the past week.

Is there any solution to disable animations in the client? or to at least be able to lower your settings than the already default lowest? I'm ok with text and no picture at this point, long as it runs smoothly I can deal without the fancy effects
