I have a msi gtx 680 with 4 gig onboard memory. I get the unsupported graphics card error which would be ok but it reports My card as having 0 memory so I cant turn the high res teture pack option on. Is there a way to force the game to give Me the option or detect My card right?

Can you provide us more info about your gaming rig, Windows version (XP, Vista 7, 32bit or 64bit, which Service Pack), what drivers are you using for graphic card... Did you try to install latest GeForce 306.02 for your graphic card MSI GeForce GTX 680?

Well Im running Win 7 64bit ultimate with sp 1 installed and up to date on updates.
My pc is a i7-3770k on a asus sabertooth z77 with 16 gig skill memory with a gtx 680 4gig and asus phobeus sound card. I have tried the beta driver but it broke many of My games. I couldnt start anno 2070 or Batman arkham city to name two. So I uninstalled and did a complete fresh install of the 301.42 drivers and everything loaded again just fine.


Update:

Just did a fresh install of the beta drivers to test crysis 2. Still get the unsupported card message but after I hit ok it crashes to desktop. Got anno 2070 to load on beta by renaming the exe so I assume its the new profile thats killing anno but cant get crysis to run on beta.

Do you have the 1.9 patch installed?

This is the first time I've heard that anyone have such problem (unsupported graphics card error) with GTX680 and Crysis 2, although I know only people who are having 2GB versions od GTX680 and Crysis 2 is working perfect for them, neither one of them have 4GB model.

Maybe it's a game installation corrupted problem (did you try to uninstall Crysis 2 and do a fresh install Crysis 2 + update 1.9 + DX11 uppdate without High Resolution Texture Pack?). I guess that you have update 1.9 installed (if you have Crysis 2 Maximum Edition it is already 1.9 updated) because you are mention High Resolution Texture Pack which is available only with update 1.9.

Could you provide us here a screenshot of GPU-Z 0.6.4 main window?

Is your MSI card model: N680GTX Twin Frozr 4GD5/OC ...or: N680GTX Twin Frozr 4GD5 ...? Look carefully at the white sticker on the MSI GTX680 box...

Also try to download MSI Live Update utility: http://download1.msi.com/files/download ... Update.zip ...and just try to check is there a new BIOS update for that model of graphic card. MSI GTX680 4GB models are only few months old so maybe their first versions of BIOS suffer from "child illnesses", something that maybe new BIOS for GTX680 4GB graphic card can solve. As far as I know so far NVidia provided 2 or 3 versions of BIOS for GTX680 4GB SKU's for their partners, maybe (probably) version of BIOS on your MSI GTX680 4GB is first version.

Just to be sure also try that MSI GTX680 4GB in Crysis 2 on some other rig. Maybe you got a faulty card, chances for that are small, but never say never...

Try to downclock a little (50MHz to 100MHz) GPU on that card with MSI Afterburner: http://download1.msi.com/files/download ... tup223.zip ...creating sepparate profile for 3D. If you have MSI N680GTX Twin Frozr 4GD5/OC model it could be that GPU couldn't keep up with that slight overclock (1058 (Boost Clock: 1124)). Half year ago using MSI Afterburner the same way I've sugested you I've discovered one faulty MSI N560GTX-Ti Twin Frozr II/OC which GPU couldn't keep up with that slight overclock frequency tuned by MSI.

My experiences with GeForce 306.02 Beta drivers are better than with GeForce 301.42 WHQL...

post here what did you try from that above...

I was checking if he had the 1.9 patch, cause the 1.2 patch addresed an issue about unsupported cards:

It's hard to believe that someone who owns Crysis 2 and internet connection (on such strong gaming rig which components are obviosly picked piece-by-piece) is still playing Crysis 2 in "dinosaur-old" version 1.2. Right after the start (if the internet connection is turned on) Crysis 2 is checking for update, update can be canceled but I believe devilchi guy is experienced enough not to do that by the way he wrote text in 2nd message: "...Well Im running Win 7 64bit ultimate with sp 1 installed and up to date on updates. My pc is a i7-3770k on a asus sabertooth z77 with 16 gig skill memory with a gtx 680 4gig and asus phobeus sound card. I have tried the beta driver but it broke many of My games...". Also he is mentioning: "...so I cant turn the high res teture pack option on...", and that option is no available for Crysis 2 with updates 1.8 and below (1.4, 1.2, 1.1 and basic 1.0 version). No offence TSAndrey, I'm just noticing something you've missed... ;)

Sorry I been away from home to post a reply. I found out the problem was the virtu MVP software. I turned it off and turned off multi-monitor support in the bios and sure enough crysis fired right up with no problems and even with the new drivers no issues with any other games either., so those of you running the virtu MVP well be warned it sounds good but it seems to break alot of support for many games. Also I had to remove it, I couldnt just tell it to run the game with My geforce card. Even then it would error. I had to keep it from running period. Hope this helps out others that might have this problem in the future. Maybe they will fix the software but for now its a no go for Me.
