I was messing with the options today and i turned the lighting down to static and sure enough i went from 30-40 FPS on minimum to 80-120 FPS solid. Now i can play on maximum and i get a rock solid 50-70 FPS on the system in my sig.

With static lighting you lose shadows and the lighting is not as great but the rest of the game looks fantastic and runs very well.
 
From what I've read, that's what I figured was causing 90% of the lag issues; dynamic lighting. It's good to know that, since you and I have very similar systems aside from the graphics card, that my old geezer still has some umph left in it to play this game. I'll probably pick it up after I get my monitor from Newegg.

I dont get it? was this already covered in that thread?

Either way what are the chances if it was it will be seen buried in a 6 page thread anyway...

It's called search. Then you add a post. And the thread moves from pg 6 to page 1.

Most cards simply cannot handle full dynamic lighting in that game as it does shadows on every blade of grass at max settings. It's not lag, it's insufficient hardware.

Well yes it is actually. And even if it wasn't, you could have still posted this in that thread.. But what ever, what ever.. :)

Maybe you should read my post... the thread is not on page 6 its 6 pages long and if this can help someone else out i dont see the problem with starting a new thread making it easier for EVERYONE ELSE to find...

Damn people out of the dozens of flamebait/useless threads started here every day i post something with the intention of helping people out since i read about so damn many performance related issues around here and somehow people still find the need to bitch and moan.

Dont like the thread dont post in it... All your doing is bumping it anyway.
