    Just got the Witcher 2 and it wants to set the settings 2 low. Is that right? This is on the R3 in my sig.

    Some games do that. Just change the settings manually to high/very high, disable ubersampling, and you'll be fine.

    fyi. it does that to me also on sc2. I can play it on Extreme fine, but it always sets default to Medium. Don't worry too much about the "Default" settings.

    btw, im on a 460m, and can play on High fine without any fps loss, so you should be able to play very high easily. Just disable the evil "Ubersampling."
