Game is too laggy in high end PC

Jusseppe · 01-03-2012, 10:11 PM

I just downloaded the game from Steam and the moment I start a game and am able to move the game starts lagging a lot, very few frames per second.

I have to following PC with up-to-date drivers on everything:

Intel Core i7 2600k
12 GB RAM
nVidia GTX 580
Gigabyte GA-Z68XP-UD3 motherboard
Windows 7 Ultimate 64

I have run some pretty demanding games maxed out with good results so I don't know what's causing it. Temperature on CPU and videocard seem to be ok and within safe limits.

When I run The Void on lowest settings the frame rate seems to be ok, but I should be able to max it with my PC. Any ideas on how to fix this? Oh, I'm using a 1920x1080 monitor BTW.

Edit: The game is also choppy in lowest settings, I just retested it. Could it be the game is not detecting my video card? When I click Autodetect it says "Failed to choose optimal presets for your video card. Minimum settings were selected.".

Not sure, but it ran fine on my machine which is far more dated than yours - perhaps it could be a driver issue?
