i dont know if you have heard of the site systemrequirementslab.com, but what it does is scan your pc and tell you if you can run games. now in this case, it was test drive unlimited. so i went on srl, and it told me i could pass the recommended specs. so i got test drive unlimited, and when i played it it was really, really choppy and lagged a lot. i was wondering if there was something i could do to make it run smooth, i have it at 1280x1024, with the detail level high and hdr on, because it said i could run it past recommended.
please let me know

turn down your graphic resolution to 1024x768 and that should help a lot.

yes. However, if the performance doesn't improve enough, then you will need to change that as well.
