Don't know if this is mentioned yet but Nvidia released a list of optimal settings for Nvidia cards for Crysis2 DX11 with high res textures. Could maybe help a bit?
See http://www.geforce.com/#/Optimize/OPS/Crysis-2-GeForce-GTX-560-Ti-OPS
This is for my card but top right you can search for more cards.

great find. thanks for sharing.

Welcome
And it seems to be working: did use those settings and indeed I run at around 40fps without overclock settings for my card Did use V-sync though even where Geforce site says disable. But I did not notice any difference in FPS.

they disabled V sync so card can show max fps it can show... (if it goes over 60 fps)

Ah okay! Thanx for explaining!
I can reach 60+ fps I think but I have to overclock my system then right to the edge ... and don't wanna do that :p

Turns out your actually being screwed over by Nvidia, because by changing Shading to high, you pretty much eliminate and disable"Dx11", like without tessellation, try it, tessellation only works when shading is at least on Extreme.

No, tessellation should be still available on high shaders, what it does get rid of is real time reflections and other fancy stuff that make dx11 look sweet.

Well its not available, like i said try it. The reason why you will get such high FPS is becuase no tessellation to begin with. Or at least tessellation on the ground from what i was comparing.

I did try and with Shading to high, tessellation still seems to be there. Only difference I see is that the shadows/reflections are... well, more "flat". It is noticeable when you really look at it but being fully in game with action it's hardly noticeable.
Having said that, it of course also depends on the beholder: one person can be just cool with running higher fps with some less detail and another person wants to have highest fps cause he/she has top of the bill hardware. And that's where Crysis 2 is hard to get a grip on: on my system which is not a high end system Crysis 2 runs just fine. But I have seen systems which way outperform my specs but Crysis 2 doesn't run as smooth there as on my system. Reason unknown thus far.

I already have, it's actually 'object' that deals with the tessellation and POM not 'shaders'.

erm......yeah. nice. Would love to see the optimization for my card. unfortunately, geforce.com refuses to load.
I only get the loading bar.....waited for one hour, still the f'ing loading bar......

Tried 3 different browsers already...

I want a radeon version
