Performance is extremely low for the COD application.
You're facing some performance issues with your Y500 laptop when running the new COD. It's running smoothly at 720p but still feels sluggish and laggy, especially when trying to maintain a consistent frame rate. The 650MHz OC (1190/2500) should handle the settings, but it seems the graphics driver or system settings are causing the problem. You've already tried limiting the game to 30 FPS without success, so you might want to check if there are any graphics drivers updates or try adjusting the display settings further. If the issue persists, consider checking for background processes or freeing up system resources.
You're experiencing poorer performance in that game compared to Bf4 multiplayer, which isn't uncommon.
Square Enix and Activision are two major companies in the gaming industry.
Just to confirm, you're asking about a patch to resolve an issue and expressing frustration...
I'll aim to fetch the newest drivers from Nvidia. Even if you don't have them, the Beta versions might still help boost your performance. In my group, players focused on high FPS don't usually play COD, but one of them does and he's really frustrated with the game's behavior. He's running a Phenom II x4 with a GTX 650ti and still faces similar issues even at lower settings.
Just a quick note, I reinstalled my laptop to Windows 7 and set it up as a guest. Now the game runs smoothly at 1080p with 720p textures, maintaining 80 FPS without any drops. Thanks for your help—I really hope I don’t need to do this again soon. Windows 7 FTW
