    Hey guys, really enjoying the visual enchanments that LL gives us!
    What video setttings are you currently running and on what GPU+specs?

    I am using:
    GPU- GTX 580 @ 835/2050mhz
    CPU- Intel I5 2500k @ 4.5ghz
    RAM- 8gig DDR3 @ 1866mhz

    1920x1080 (Vsync On)
    Very High
    SSAA - None
    Motion blur - normal
    Tesselation- Very High

    Running 45-60fps. SSAA dropps my frames too much (down to 20) and the 0.5x option just smears the textures.

    Quality Normal
    Tess Off
    ssaa Off
    vsync off
    1920x1080

    Processor: AMD Phenom II x4 965 ~3.4GHz
    Memory: 6144MB RAM
    Graphics card: ATI Radeon HD 5850 (cant recall exactly, but 5800 series nontheless)

    I could run on High and still have decent fps (dropping from 60-30 at times, maybe less) otherwise I run always 60 fps on these settings xD

    You could try running the game on a lower resolution, you could easily run high then.

    I have a 1440p monitor as well and your in for a treat! :)
    Games look brilliant now including this one! I also didnt notice a massive frame drop between 1080 and 1440 on all games which is great to. just need to wait for a patch to get rid of the stutters and im good to go.


    2600k @ 4.5ghz
    2x GTX 680 Classified 4gig @ 1215mhz

    Playing on my old rig,planning on upgrading sometime this summer. Anyway,the game runs surprisingly well.

    Q9550@3.8 Ghz
    6 Gigs ram
    Sapphire Radeon 6870 1 GB
    Windows 7 64-bit

    Playing on high,SSAA x 2,no tesselation,AAx16,motion blur x normal @ 1080p.
    Runs like charm with ~60 FPS with some minor hickups here and there :D

    Frame rates all over the place and that means I can't use the same settings all the time . Some levels Very high settings with tessellation on very high and then some levels Very high with tessellation off .

    Hopefully it should arrive this week, it's discussed at length at overclock.net. Fingers crossed for 0 dead pixels and being able to get 120HZ.

    :shocked:

    Yea i was lucky i didnt get any dead pixels. Although i did have a big hole in the box from something they carry it with i guess. It scratched the screen so i had to get it replaced.
    The only down side is if you do want to play in 1080 it doesnt look as good. Plus everything is really small on the desktop ;)
