Unplayable even with high end pc
I just reinstalled this game to give it a second chance and it still failed me. I have an Nvidia GeForce GTX 645 which I can run BF4 and other games on high settings. I turned down the graphic settings to almost lowest and even lowered the resolution. My graphics drivers are all updated and yes, YES I DID TURN OFF UBERSAMPLING. I did my research and other people are still having the same problem, especially people with the High end rigs. Well done cd projekt red.

Never had problems running Witcher 2 across multiple machines. First, my gtx 260, then my gtx 470, then my 5870 and now my 7850. Cpu range from my dual core 5000+ BE up through quad core 955 BE. These are all 'bang for buck' AMD rigs and one had a cheap micro atx mobo with 3 phase power and 2 GB memory. If Witcher 2 could run on multi-tier hardware across different sockets, chipsets, and graphics cards from both major brands then yes, clearly cdpr don't know what they are doing and your 'high end gtx 645" is just too intimidating to retroactively program 4 year old game for.

After your refund, consider upgrading to Windows 7 or trading in for a console.

l2computer.

My toaster can run Witcher 2 on medium~ with 40+ fps at 1080 and I can at least run Witcher 3 on a 2.7 quad and r7 250x. Sounds like a personal problem and not the game.

fps games, yes small closed arenas that are way less graphically intense than witcher, ow an one more thing med-high isn't even close to calling something high end ^^

Sorry to tell you but a 645 is Not High End, its basically a Low-Midend. And being as its an OEM GPU its actually a little less powerful than normal. Considering your GPU, your CPU most likely isnt any better off. You say you have an i5, which if thats true mixing an i5 with a sucky GPU was a waste of money.

Your mistake is thinking that just because you can play one game at decent settings you'll be able to play another, that isnt the case.

Simple fact is, BF4 is more highly optimized than W2, which probably helps you.
-

All you can do is lower the graphic settings as much as possible and have Vsync enabled which should also help..

Chances are theres something else going on with your PC though, unoptimized settings, crap hogging your resources, etc so on. Its not always the games fault, FYI.

Though OP's pc is not hight end I am able to run Witcher2 on max with ubersampling on GTX560ti and 4gb RAM. Dunno how to fix OP's problem though... Are you sure you have everything set right in Nvidia control panel? Often it interfers with game's settings resulting in high framerate drops.

good suggestion, OP might even have the native gpu set as default card for most applications. It happened to me quite often, until I realised the global settings were very low and used the intel gpu.

While the ops computer is no where near high end. (sorry to keep rubbing it in) he should be able to play this game on low fine. Which he cannot, which is very odd.

Obviously make sure all drivers are up to date, that is not just your gpu, but your motherboard drivers also. Keep any kind of shading turned off, as well as any aa settings, these are the frame rate killers.

Also are you running many background programs? I once spoke to someone on the skyrim forums who actually used up more than 5.5gb of ram before he ran a thing due to background programs, rhese could be both be eating up memory as well as conflicting. use msconfig, then startup and close any non important programs (download programs, update programs etc),

Try to switch of steam overlay, sometimes people get issues with that also.

You people are stupid. Doesn't matter that his card isn't high end for today standards, this game is 4 years old and with these specs he should be able to almost max it.

Don't mind those idiots, what's your problem? Low fps or stutter?

Have you seen how it looks like? Did you do any research on the game itself? Even if it's well optimised (which is kind of wasn't) his gpu shouldn't pull off more than low, maybe 2 or 3 options on medium.

I was able to play Witcher 2 on med on 45 fps on my old gpu AMD HD 7770 and that's like NVidia's gtx 560.

45 fps is considered lag in most cases, i am talking bout 60+ not bout lag 45 sorry dude, i had twin amd hd radeons 5870, 60 on medium was it, than a 7970 60 on high now gtx 980 60 on ultra, demanding game, small dev crew learning engine witcher 3 would run btr
