HP - Pavilion HPE-118-uk
CPU Type - QuadCore Intel Core i7-2600, 3500 MHz (35 x 100)
CPU - Sandy Bridge-DT
Min / Max CPU Multiplier 16x / 34x
L2 Cache 256 KB per core (On-Die, ECC, Full-Speed)
Motherboard ID - 63-0100-000001-00101111-062311-Chipset$0AAAA000_VER: CHG711.ROM VCHG7.11
Motherboard Name - Pegatron 2AB5
PCI 2.0 x16
Memory - 8GB DDR3 SDRAM
2TB Hard drive. (Western Digital)
GTX 680 Gigabyte, Windforce.
HX650 Corsair PSU.
So I downloaded BF3, played that on ultra settings with the lowest frame rate being 58, and the highest being 154, which leads to, what I believe is an average of 75ps, which is ok for me.
So I decided.. "Hmm lets see what this thing can do.." I downloaded Crysis 2, played on the highest settings, with DX11 enabled and High res textures, and if I'm inside a buiulding the frame rate is not bad, around 47, but if I go outside and look at a big enviroment the frame rate drops to about 25 with the lowest being 20, which as you can understand is not playable.
Now is this a common thing that the 680 is just not good enough to play Crysis 2 at those settings, or is something going on in my computer. I know that the card is a PCI 3.0 but I've read many threads, including some on here that said the difference between speeds is less than 1% (From an Nvidia employee, or Mod)
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
