The game is currently afflicted by serious memory issues, and pretty much any card under 2GB in VRAM struggles to run it at the higher settings.

Right now, if you already downloaded and installed the latest drivers (optimized for AW), your only option is to lower graphical details until a patch from Sledgehammer comes out.

As a side note, that single stick 8gb RAM kinda doesn't help either. It's highly advisable to get another 8gb module and go for dual channel; not just for Advanced Warfare, but for all games.
Be sure to get a module that has the same frequency and CAS latency; as a rule of thumb, getting another stick of the same exact model can be considered the best course of action.

thanks for your comment, so what are you saying? to update my ram by another 8gb or simply get rid of one stick and use 2*4gb to get more performance from duel channel? since, i cannot update my gpu right now, so i think i will go for ram update if that is useful...

It will be useful on the long run with different games, not just with Advanced Warfare, but it'll not bring any major advantage. It would also be a waste to buy 2x4GB modules, as you'd probably spend more and end up with less.

Your GPU is more than capable of running the game, but it's the game itself which has issues now. If you have the money to spare, getting another 8GB module which is the same as your current one will provide some advantage in many games, although it's a very slight (and sometimes unnoticeable) one. In the meantime, lower the game's settings and wait for a patch.
