Weird frame caping?

Post » Fri Jul 22, 2011 12:35 am

Hi folks,

A weird problem, sometimes when I play Crysis 2 at 1080p DX11 full specs, it runs almost flawlessly. At other times It becomes really jerky the fps are horrible, its as if its locked at low fps somehow. I read in a similar post where some guy had a similar prob and someone suggested to look in the system.cfg to see if the games fps has been capped, but that's not happening in my case. As I said, sometimes it runs great, other times its really jerky. I've checked and closed all unnecessary background tasks. I know this is a video/driver or a Crysis 2 related problem.

Any ideas??

Cheers.

Yeh i get a similar problem, when i load into the game for some reason the frame rate is capped at around 24FPS, the only way i know to fix it is to go out of full screen and then go back in and then the frame rate goes back to normal.

Sounds like a 24hz glitch. What video card are you using?

Are you running the game with tessellation on?

If you do, then whenever you're looking at a tessellated object, the frame rate can take a nose dive unless you have some SERIOUS GPU horse power. Other times, when you're not looking at a tessellated object, the frame rate will be normal.

I have a GTX 465 and I only really have the problem in Multiplayer which doesnt use Tessellation, i think it has something to do with the graphics driver profile refresh rate
