Increase FPS on my laptop???

Post » Mon Jan 31, 2011 10:26 am

Hey so I bought this game, and used the tool thats out to adjust my graphics to low settings.

However I am still getting slightly less than optimal frame rates, which is highly annoying. I feel like I'm not actually playing the game.

My laptop has pretty good specs, is there any tricks I should know about to get it running faster?

I have an 8 core processor and 8 gigs of ram.

I have an asus g51j laptop with Core i5, 4gb RAM, nvidia 360m and it runs fine but only at 1280x720. If I go native 1920x1080 it gets a bit choppy. Try lowering your res or even playing in a window rather than fullscreen.

I also noticed that the game seems to be only running on a few cores... at most 2?

Is there a way to make it optimized to use all cores??

You problem is not your processor or your ram. The problem is that your trying to run it on a laptop that lacks a graphics card capable of handling Crysis 2. What you need to run this game is a desktop with the same specs as your laptop, but with a far more powerful graphics card. I'm sorry to say that theres not much more you can do. Not trying to be an ass but you should have checked to see if your laptop could run Crysis 2 before you dropped 60$ on it.

I'm using an Asus G51JX (i7, GTS360M, 4GB DDR3) and I run the game medium-high (graphics config program) at 1440 x 900. I have my laptop hooked up to a 22" monitor so the scaling is not bad. Looks amazing and runs amazing.

The resolution switch helped INSANELY. I could probably turn my graphics back up. For some reason the normal resolution I use made the frame rate terrible. btw is there a way to show framerate in game so I can play with the settings more?
