Batman Arkham Asylum Lag Help!!

[ryan54]

So earlier today, I finished downloading the demo, and tried it out, only to find that I lag almost every 10 seconds.

I changed my graphics card from 9400GT to a GTS 250, turned off physx and played on low settings, but it didn't make any big difference.

Can anyone help me on this?

Specs:
AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5000
3.2 GB of RAM
NVIDIA GeForce GTS 250
Res: 1024x768

Please help!

Maybe your CPU is a bit weak, what does the sys' req' say?

 

[ryan54]

If you mean the game's system requirments, the recommended settings are:

OS: Windows XP Sp2/Vista Sp1
Processor:Core 2 Duo 2.2GHz processor family/Athlon 64 X2 4400+ (required for MP host)
Memory: 2 GB RAM
Hard Drive:12 GB
Video Memory: graphics card with 512MB (SM 3.0). NVidia 8600 GTS or ATI HD 2900 XT.
Sound Card: DirectX 9.0c compliant
DirectX:9.0C
*Internet: Broadband (768kbit/sec upstream required to host 16 players)

Huh...a GTS250 should be plenty...the athlon is holding you back, but shouldn't hurt THAT much...

 

[ryan54]

Yeah. Thats why I'm confused too. Its like the same as my old 9400GT when playing Batman.

Have you tried updating your drivers?

 

[peter2004]

don't listen to them when ever you ask for help the always say you cpu is to slow, my old computer had an 4800+ with an 9800gtx+ superclocked and the game ran fine no lag at 1400res, the problom is your gts 250 that card is crap i had 1 when didn't rally run right, just get rid of it if you can and try to get a 9800gtx+ or even a 9800gt if you look on new egg lots of people run into all kinds of probs with that card

lagging game also on mine hd4830, this game totally sux, even crysis and gta4 runs smoother on my pc on dx10 quality, as i have E2180 @ 3.33ghz OCed, but this game looks so unoptimized.

I had the same problem even if i have a good pc,and once it was working good when i passed the game ,after some time i wanted to play again and saw that the game lags when using batclaw and when using the grapple gun.I Tryed all the patches and the problem wasnt solved.Then i understand that the only way is to reinstall the windows.I installed the same Windows that i used before (windows 7 32 bit (86)) and now BAA works awsome with everything max.No lags at all.Hope this will help someone but you must reinstall your windows in order to play this game )))
