Hello, i posted this question before and though i found a solution, but it turned out it went bad after a few days. When i first bought this game it ran smoothly on medium, then in the middle of chapter one it started to lag extremely. Before i updated to the new beta drivers and that is where it started, i uninstall the 3D vision, didnt work, reinstalled and unistalled the 3D vision, didnt work. This it runs now, its smooth for 10 mins, then extreme lag. I tried everything and it just doesnt work. I lowered to the lowest resolution, disabled everything and doesn't work. Please help me :(.

My specs


Operating System: Windows Vista™ Home Premium (6.0, Build 6001) Service Pack 1 ()
Processor: AMD Phenom(tm) 9750 Quad-Core Processor (4 CPUs), ~2.4GHz
Memory: 8184MB RAM
Page File: 2312MB used, 14246MB available
Windows Dir: C:\Windows
DirectX Version: DirectX 10
Card name: NVIDIA GeForce 9500 GS
Manufacturer: NVIDIA
Chip type: GeForce 9500 GS

I know, a GS is horrible but i could run it in the start, why not now?

But why start lagging in the middle of chapter 1 :(. And if you do, you know any cheap graphics card that can run this game on high?

Depends on which resolution you're playing...

I'd get a GTX 260 if you can find one cheap... great card, should run the game on high easily.

I run a GeForce GTX 560 Ti, but that ain't cheap...

You might wanna check and see if this game has been bench-marked by any sites on different systems and vid cards - and see what other gamers on here say about performance.

EDIT:
Would a GeForce GTX 460 be in your price-range?

That would be in my price range :), might take me to while to build up the money.

GTX 460 costs around 200$. What's your price range?
Posted May 28, 2011
if you plan to play games 800 x 600 a gtx 460 would be overkill people
