hi, i didnt play final game but i had the same problem with crysis2 demo, i was playing on 1440x900 resolution too, vsync off, the problem was there when i was playing on hardcoe and advanced, but it disappeared when i played on gamer, it looked exactly the same, it looks like game slows down every 1-2 seconds then speeds up, this problem was present even when i had 60 fps on advanced settings, but in more complicated scene on gamer when i had less fps: 45-50 the problem was gone so it's not related to fps, i didnt manage to fix it and have no idea why it is like this, maybe more people have this bug but dont notice it, firstly i thought there is something wrong with game, it just played strange, not smooth, it's easily noticeable when strafing and looking how everything else moves around - it doesnt look smooth and playing with this strange lag is just ruining experience, if i remember correctly i had this lag just after starting game, i didnt need to wait a few minutes, but as i said before on gamer there wasnt lag even after some time playing
