Hi there, I had this same problem - Windows 10 & an Intel graphics card. I upgraded to Sketchup 2018 and the Sketchup help team sent me a file called WindowsSlowSelectionWorkaround.bat. I installed this and it fixed it. I would upload the file here, if only I knew how!

The above is the link Sketchup sent me. Hope it helps.

Sorry, forgot to say that in the above link, the first 4 pages or so are data collection pages but the last page provides the link to the file that solves the problem.
