Answer 1

Well, normally there are some games especially newly released ones that has some bugs in it that needs to be fixed through the creation of updates (fix, new cracks etc) and also AMD / NVIDIA usually release new drivers for those games that have these issues.

Answer 2

Hmmm. It notably a lot sounds as regardless of the actuality that your video card is the wrongdoer. notwithstanding, it may possibly do you properly to get yet another gig of memory and your processor's GTG. A 128mb vid-card for most video games at present do not reduce it. i'd advise, once you're interior the market, to flow get your fingers on a BFG technologies OC card. Overclocked appropriate from the production unit for more effective useful performance.

Answer 3

It could be that the game isnt optimized for windows 8.

Or its gpu drivers arent optimized for that game.
