SOLUTION: UPDATE BIOS TO THE LASTEST VERSION FROM YOUR MOTHERBOARDS WEBSITE.
ESPECIALLY IF YOUR CPU IS AN AMD FX-8120. OR ANY FX CPU FOR THAT MATTER.
FOUND 8/8/2012


So basically i can gta iv maxed out with a resolution of 1920x1080 with everything set to very high, Anisotropic filtering x16. BUT in mw3 i cant even run that game on a resolution of 1280x720 with everything set to low. so my question is what the hell is wrong with either the game.. or my computer? My graphics card is a nvidia gtx 550ti. im not worried that my computer is overheating because its liquid cooled. I have an AMD FX-8120 8 Core Processor. 8GB Ram. and i cant even play mw3.

I will +Rep if anyone can help.

Notes: I have the latest drivers for my graphics card.

Unless you have half decent internet, I wouldn't even bother. Even if it does fix it, your second dilemma would be how to deal with hackers and horrible lag compensation in every single lobby.

Well after posting this post 20 days ago i found the solution. the only reason i am updating is incase anyone else has this problem.

SOLUTION: UPDATE BIOS TO THE LASTEST VERSION FROM YOUR MOTHERBOARDS WEBSITE.
ESPECIALLY IF YOUR CPU IS AN AMD FX-8120. OR ANY FX CPU FOR THAT MATTER. IM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW. I CAN FINALLY PLAY MW3 AGAIN.
