Hi Guys, I just got Crysis and expected it to run smoothly on my laptop with medium requirements, but to my disappointment it didn't. At no resolution even with low eyecandies did the game run smoothly. It cannot be comfrotobly played. I jsut do not understand what the problem might be. I thought that my video card is one of the good ones out there for latptops. Any suggestions?

I just downloaded AMD GPU cloak tool and it shows that my current cloak settings are: Engine:445:5 Memory:346.5 2 questions: 1. Why are those readings so low when be default this card needs to be 500/400 or something like that 2, Should I overcloak? To what values? what are the risks? Thanks

HOLY CRAP YOU HAVE A CLOAKING DEVICE! j/k Are you getting some extreme lag that wont let you play the game or is it just not up to your standerds? Before you overclock it try updating your drivers and DX I saw a video on you tube of someone playing it with the HD2600, so it should run it. As far as the clock speeds, wait for Jam or Saber they'll shed some light on that. Just becareful Jam might talk you into buying a new laptop..lol I kid, I kid! “I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying.”

"Just becareful Jam might talk you into buying a new laptop..lol" Actually, I would recommend a desktop...lol. http://www.notebookcheck.net/ATI-Mo... http://forum.notebookreview.com/sho...

Yes you see how in the first link it says: Core Speed 500 MHz Memory Speed 600 MHz Well why is mine 450/350. Even if I try overclocking it to 500/600 it screws up my display ..you see white spots and stuff. The most I can go to with the overclocking safly is 550/450 and then I still can't run Crysis. It will run somewhat smoother but again everything is in pixels... Do you think this laptop is a little bit better : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...

Crysis will bring even the most powerful desktop to it's knees. What you need to do is lower your settings, turn off the eye-candy & disable all your background apps (including anti-virus) during game play. Hit Ctrl-Alt-Del, click the processes tab, then look at the very bottom of that window on the left...how many processes are running? BTW, your memory speed is correct...double it for DDR.

I overclocked using Atitools to 627 Core/ 420 Memory and the game is now running almost smoothly (except on the beaches sometimes). However, what is the point playing this game without enjoying the view. Btw isn't my ATI mobility hd2600 supposed to be at par with Nvidia 8600m GS.How come then the Nvidia has such high core/memory 600/700. http://www.nvidia.com/object/geforc... does this mean that the Nvidia is 1.5 times better especially if overclocked?
