Alienware Crysis 2 lag?

I have recently gotten my alienware aurora r3 and i downloaded crysis 2. I was expecting to be able to run it on maximum settings without a problem but it has framerate issues even on high settings.



Here are my specs:



Intel Core i7-2600K (8MB Cache) Overclocked Turbo Boost to 4.1Ghz



12GB Dual Channel DDR3 at 1333MHz



Dual 1GB GDDR5 Nvidia GeForce GT 545 - SLI Enebled



This issue really bothers me because according to the advertisement i'm supposed to run crysis 2 at max everything... If you know anything please help meAlienware Crysis 2 lag?
Personally, I would check to see if you have the most up to date driver. You can always download the driver striaght from the nvidia website, it even says the current driver has a crisis 2 sli increase, but every computer is different, so check out this website and download it. I pointed you to the driver you should download, and the most up to date driver.

As so often, Alienware sell a top computer with a very poor video card...

That GT545 is worth zilch for gaming purposes; at least, not of the kind one enjoys: high settings in 1920x1080 pixels...

This is the main reason why I keep telling folks to stay away from alienware and Dell, because in a way, they are cheats...

Get a better video card.

Haha. What Jimmy said.

"I was expecting to be able to run it on maximum settings without a problem but it has framerate issues even on high settings."
%26gt;Please do the research and know what you're actually buying. With the GT 545, running the game on lowest settings sounds about right. (maybe medium at the most).

Unfortunately, that Alienware is terrible, and my older four year old gaming PC can outperform it. A $600 entry level PC can outperform that.

%26gt;Lesson learned: Don't buy Alienware. If you don't want to custom build, then at least get a PC that is correctly priced as a prebuilt.

%26gt;Solution: Upgrade your GPU. You're going to have to pump another ~$200 into that machine if you want increased performance. Around ~$300 if you want to max out games no problem.
