Hey all.I want to ask something about crysis 2
My spec is
Processor Dual core E 5700 3ghz
RAm:2gb
Video Card:Ati radeon 4350/4500 series 1gb
I can play the game smoothly on 800x600 advanced setting,sometimes hardcoe
So my question is:How can I play crysis 2 smoothly,but not witcher 2?The spec is the same,right?The witcher is very unplayable even on very low setting.please can someone explain it to me?

Crysis 2 is a console port, meaning that it was made for Xbox 360 and PS3 before PC. Console games are way less demanding than computer games because of certain factors. A PC only game (one like Witcher 2) has many more features that require more System RAM/Video Card Capability. Also, your processor comes into play as well. Here are the minimum specs for Witcher 2.

Processor: Core 2Duo 2.2 GHz or dual core AMD 2.5 GHz
RAM: 1GB Win XP/ 2GB Vista/7
Graphics: GeForce 8800 512MB or Radeon (HD3850 512 MB)

The Video Card is the problem. If you can't afford a new Video Card at the moment, I recommend upgrading to 4 or more GB of RAM. Hope this helps and good luck man :D

More ram will not help in this case.

It's hella easier to buy new hardware, this is slow for new games.

Im not sure about Arkham City. Ill have to compare specs. I agree with Yuna Scatari though.More RAM would help for sure but after looking at your specs again, a CPU upgrade is needed. The Witcher 2 uses more processing power than Crysis 2 and Crysis 2 uses more Graphics power.

Crysis 2 uses a lot of CPU power too.
