    Yup, that definitely looks like a CPU bottleneck. Try overclocking your CPU, that should help quite a bit I imagine.

    Your CPU is too slow for your GPU.

    You have to get Quad core, i recommend Sandy Bridge.

    That CPU should easily be capable of hitting at least 3.6ghz, even on a stock cooler.. Thats what I would set it to if I were you..

    terrible optimization in my opinion.

    these graphics at the highest settings doesn't justify the FPS you all get.

    iv seen better looking games with far better performance.
    not to mention the shadows look really awful.. tried it with several drivers.


    amazing game, enjoying it very much - very disappointed on the graphics side.
    the performance should be doubled with these GPU's people own.

    fullscreen works fine here, but i hate 16:9 view @ 1280x1024 reso.. -_-



    Damien666 yea that's normal, if you want better performance disable SSAO and yea ubersampling while keeping the rest maxed, also for better texture quality force Anisotropic filtering in Withcer2 profile.

    and 3dvision driver can cripple perf. a bit, that's why White asked that, btw nv fixed this issue with 275.27 driver.

    the Merchant pack dlc code that came with my game says its invalid. tried it like 3x.
    getting a nasty cpu bottle neck too. even at 720p no aa still 35-60fps
    (seems like the cpu usage isnt even that high either)
    so i just keep it maxed 1080p -uber (30-55fps)
    cpu @ 3.6ghz atm

    im on the 270.51 drivers at moment they work great at most are these 275.27 drivers reliable in general ?

    yea they work great with single gpu and they have new scaling options.

    Welcome to the club. I have been trying to get mine working for 2 days.Those frames are with only 1 gpu I should imagine as it's very similar to mine.

    il be glad to.

    Metro 2033, Crysis 2, even Mass Effect 2 with Full AA through catalyst is
    looking better in my opinion.

    light and shadow looks better on even older games.

    that's me at least.

    Is Ubersampling on? if so you might want try some of those listed titles at 2x SSAA and you'll likely get far worse FPS than what Witcher 2 produces. :)
    (SSAA working as so rendering the resolution at 2x upwards to 8x - though 2x in this game - and then downsampling it again, thus improving AA by brute force but at a massive cost in performance, also tunes mip-map bias a bit so textures are further sharpened.)

    (They really should rename it SSAA as to be clear on what it actually does, hopefully that will make things far more clear to those who don't read the readme file at all - which has every single option listed and explained in detail, I even quoted it earlier for reference and accessibility.)
