Witcher2 is already DRM free so there's not much left to optimize

As I said your video card is simply not powerful enough to run in ULTRA. This isn't because your card sucks. It's because the game is very demanding in Ultra mode. There's literally a 30-40 fps drop from HIGH to ULTRA due to the texture sizes and other things.

You can probably run it in HIGH and be fine.

You need to turn off ubersampling, it kills any current gen computer setup, you need tri sli 590's.

A GTX 590 is already 2 GPUs in SLI. The max you can have is two GTX 590's to make a 4 GPU setup.

Like mentioned, your graphics card wont run it max'd.

Random question, do you use the 360 controller with it? I have heard it supports the xbox 360 controller natively.
I would love to play it maxed out on the PC with the 360 controller

Yes the game is fully playable with a 360 controller. You need to manually change the controls to controller in the options.

Also as already mentioned: Turn of Über-Sampling. Even my HD6950 can't handle it.

Thanks for the quick answer

Do you mean you have to do the control mapping yourself?

No it's optimized for the 360 controller, but changing that one option will replace the displayed keys with 360 buttons and some menus will change, making everything accessible with the controller.

.

I am also getting 6950. Did you flash it to 6970?
How well does it run?
I would have already flashed it, but my PSU is too weak.
It's already very powerful anyway and can run every new game at maximum settings with full anti aliasing.

Thanks for the answers, guys. It works just fine on high spec. Another question, can I Crossfire with a higher model?

all amd cards currently available on the market can be used in a crossfire setup, it simply depends on your motherboard and your psu.
crossfire performances scale better when used with high resolution display.
And again, if there is a bottle neck on a 6770 caused by memory bus when using highest detailed texture, crossfire won't solve it.

No you cant.
It has to be the same one.

However, the brand or VRAM doesnt matter.

You can crossfire a 1GB version with a 2GB version, but not with a different model.

Thanks bro

So I guess flashing it to 6970 would makes things even sweeter.
