How to get the best frame rate in The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Enhanced Edition
The publisher's minimum for The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Enhanced Edition is GeForce 8800 (512 MB) or Radeon HD3850 (512 MB). Resolution: 1280x720. with Intel 2.2 GHz Dual-Core or AMD 2.5 GHz Dual-Core, and the recommended hardware is GeForce 260 (1 GB) or Radeon HD 4850 (1 GB). Resolution: 1440x900.. We treat the recommended hardware as the setup that holds about 60 fps at 1080p on High.
In our estimates a GeForce GT 730 is about the weakest card that holds 60 fps on High at 1080p, a GeForce GTX 645 does the same at 1440p, and a GeForce GTX 1050 at 4K. Cards below that can still play the game, at Medium or Low.
Open world and story games are limited by the graphics card in busy areas and by video memory in new locations. If you see stutter when you enter a new area, lower the texture setting a step. Turn on upscaling if the game offers it.
