Hello,
I know there is a problem with my video card related to the performance of this game. It's frustrating waiting for this game to come out, only to play it at a somewhat delayed speed. I know that if I bring the Resolution down it helps. Currently have 22" monitor. widescreen type, setting on the Monitor is 1680x1050, same with the game. I can play, it just gets a little annoying sometimes I just installed a new card about 6 months ago, are there any updates I can get. I've searched and can't find any.....plus is there such a thing, or am I out of luck and I need to get a better one ? Here is my info : Nividia GeForce 8500GT 32bit OS 64 x 2 Dual Core Proc any input is appreciated |

Your video card is not for gaming, that type of video card is for multimedia and not gaming.
Its good for watching videos and looking at photos etc but it lacks the power to run any of todays games. I have the follwoing system and i am going to find it hard to play the games that will be released next year. Manufacturer: HP-Pavilion/Custom Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E6750 @ 2.66GHz (2 CPUs), ~2.7GHz Memory: 2046MB RAM Hard Drive: 500 GB Total Video Card: EVGA NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GTX SSC 512MB Monitor: Compaq WF1907 Wide LCD Monitor Sound Card: Speakers (Realtek High Definition Audio) Speakers/Headphones: Logitech Surround Sound Keyboard: Logitech MX300 Mouse: Logitech MX300 Mouse Surface: Operating System: Windows Vista™ Ultimate Motherboard: Asus P35 Computer Case: XBlade Visit here to see if you PC can run the game well. http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/referrer/srtest Hope this helps P.s some more system spec would be great also  |

As wedgie said the card is not best for gaming, it's the budget end of the 8 series. The only thing you can do without changing the card is make sure you have the latest graghics driver. http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us You can also try to cut down on background aplications might give you some help. |

Thanks guys, I appreciate your response. I updated my pc with the Nividia GeForce 8500GT because I couldn't run Call of Duty 4 game a few months ago, and that game runs fine.
I ran the system test to see if my pc would handle the game and it's saying that the video card is ok, but it's actually my CPU Speed - recommended 2.6GHz and it says I have 2.31GHz ?

You have a dual core 2.31? That should be over the minimum requirments? I'd double check your background programs and processes and make sure your spyware free. You are pushing it a bit by running the game at 1650 X 1050 though, mabee try a lower res. |
