I just got my custom built pc and bought the witcher 2 enhanced edition and I can't even run it on high graphics without lagging messed up visual. WTF.
CPU processor: intel core i7 2600k
ram: 16gb
system: windows 7 64 bit
graphics card: AMD radeon HD 7970
no idea what's wrong here, should be smashing out any game i throw at it.

As you can see, it's really demanding game.

I used the driver autodetect on the amd/ati website and updated it. yet i still get a message on startup saying that its not supported by catalyst control center or something.
yes i tested it on SWTOR and that lagged pretty bad but that could just be my wireless internet.
resolution 1920 x 1080
and im a newb at high end pc's, ive just gone from a notebook laptop to custom built pc. so idk what psu is sorry. and im sure both connectors would be plugged in properly as I had this built for me by the tech guys at the store.

"and im a newb at high end pc's, ive just gone from a notebook laptop to custom built pc. so idk what psu is sorry."
the psu is the power supply--and theres a big difference in a cheap for example 700w and a quality 700w
a lot of stores stick in your 2600k and 7970 gpu--higher end components-- but put in an average or cheap psu
a quality psu can come with a 5 or 7 year guarantee

ok mcnumpty i think my wireless internet is just really crap at this very moment more than usual for some reason.
and gamerk, whats psu? I only have the single card so im not using crossfire. and what is ubersampling?
I literally just got the pc yesterday and have been doing windows updates and crap. I didnt expect to have do do much other then update it and update my graphics card driver which i did.
another question while im waiting for that unigine thing. when i start my stem i always get "The Catalyst Control Centre is not supported by the driver version of your enabled graphics adapter. Please upgrade your AMD Graphics driver or enable your AMD Adapter using The Displays Manager."

never heard of them but i am in the ukdid you update Catalyst Control Centre or just the driver
on amd website it should have the option to do both or just one
so maybe you need to update ccc as well
well i had it already on here but i downloaded it again from here http://sites.amd.com/us/game/downloads/pages/radeon_win... just to make sure so it should be the latest version.

looks like the right onedid you uninstall the original driver and ccc before installing the new one
i have a nvidia card now but had problems in the past if i didnt uninstall the amd driver and ccc and run driver sweeper or driver
cleaner before installing the new software
i dont think so.. i didnt know you had to uninstal the previous driver. i thought its an update, like a patch not a whole new thing.
anyways i havent restarted my pc after re-downloading ccc as i dont want to start this download again. so ill wait until its done and restart and see if it still comes up with that error.

What's the current core clock speed when under stress? Do you have any power saving settings enabled?
Are you positive your card has the power connectors connected and it seated properly?
Have you tried clearing CMOS? That usually solved my graphics card clock speed issues.
1. idk what that is.
2. set to high performance
3. idk what that is.
4. idk what that is.

1.gpuz will show you current gpuz speed and temperature and fan speed
http://www.techpowerup.com/downloads/SysInfo/GPU-Z/
3..would have to open pc to see
4.would have to open pc and short out the jumpers to set the bios to default
wouldnt go there till you see if its just the driver updating causing the problem
did you happen to test it on a game before updating the driver?

yes i think it is running on intergrated gpu, how do i switch it over? lol i actually tried to do that a few hours ago and disabled the intergrated one in device manager... i ended up having a black screen freaking the *** out, and after much research figured out how to enable it using the keyboard blindly.

woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow......................... -.- really? that's it? I just had it plugged into the wrong thing.... fml.
the gpuz program is now reading 7970 at 300 mhz core clock so i guess that means i have that as the active graphics card now.
