Anyone else encountered this?

Verified integrity of game files, then reinstalled game (once on hdd, once on ssd)

Playing results in very low fps even when graphics are turned down to the absolute lowest:

If you have a laptop, then forget about it. Almost every one with laptops are experiencing problems. I myself, cant play it without frying my GPU even on minimal settings, while having recomended rig but AMD card.

We should just wait for optimisation patch, which probably would be delivered during first slice, because a lot of ppl have problems running it.

NVIDIA Control Panel - Forced laptop to use high-performance NVIDIA card instead of integrated graphics card - thanks all.

Interesting, I have the same specs on my laptop and its running fine, havent had a single crash in my 1,5h of gameplay. Optimization is ofc what it is, but 60fps constant.

Just a note that you've posted the specs about your RAM, not VRAM.

Video RAM is what your video card has, you can quickly find what model of video card you have by going to the device manager and seeing the display device there to deduct the specs by the model.

It's the same for me. 3 Gigabytes 1060. The game requires 6 Gigabytes 1060.

I do have 1060 6gb version but I'm afraid it will not be enough for my 2560x1440 155Hz monitor...will probably need an upgrade :/

But GPU prices are still so obnoxious...

Made a little video showcasing the nVidia control panel process mentioned in this topic for anybody that's still struggling:



Apparently the game for some reason uses the integrated graphics processor of laptops so you need to manually tell it to use your dedicated graphics card instead.
