_NeQo_ Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 (edited) Hi guys, Don't think this has been discussed yet, or i did not found any info on it. Anyhow, I was having a lot of trouble running this game smoothly on my "older" system. I knew from the beginning these are minimum requirement.. My specs are an Intel Quad-core Q6600 @ 2.4Ghz with 4 gig memory. win 8.1 x64 with (important) my virtual memory swapfile on another HD then the one my windows is installed on. I do have a newer videocard, the GTX 960 4Gb version. But still the game was a b*tch to tune smoothly. So every logical brain sets everything on low specifications: Lower resolution, all msaa and fsaa and tesselation and all the rest of those things off. The game looked ugly, but oh man i was trilled and happy to play it. But every update i needed to tweek my setting again. Untill a few days ago i switched the ingame settings from Directx 11 to 10.1 Now all of a sudden i can set all my settings to aprox max values, and it runs very very smooth. Dunno why tbh So i would give you this tip of you having problems running the game. Just try it and see the performance rise with 300%! If it won't work out for you, oh well, nobody died right, just give it a try. Plz do reply with your experience(s) Edited July 8, 2015 by _NeQo_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tizerist Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 For me it's the setting which changes the performance the most. I use dx11 now, but the 10.1 surely gives me a smoother ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ieu_redfox Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 never really tried 10.1. dx10 just sttuters more, dx11 is fluid but sometimes have it's slowdowns GTX550Ti here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
interfreak Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Ambient occlusion, tessellation and some shadow settings are disabled in DX10.1. Not worth the decrease in visuals IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCMasterRace46 Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 (edited) Add more ram, req at least 8gb to run and over clock your gpu cpu. Edited July 9, 2015 by PCMasterRace46 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_NeQo_ Posted July 10, 2015 Author Share Posted July 10, 2015 Add more ram, req at least 8gb to run and over clock your gpu cpu. Can't. Still running on DDR2 ram here, max 2Gb per slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
