Hi everyone, notworthy.gif notworthy.gif notworthy.gif

I really need your assistance (all suggestion are welcome) so I could at least play Metro Last Light for about 30min or 1hr without crashing. I know my PC spec is almost obsolete but I still hope to at least able to play Metro LL even with the lowest of setting but it doesn't seems to work anything beyond 15min. rclxub.gif

I'm able to play the first Metro 2033 previously using the same graphic card at Moderate setting without much of a problem. Although it does crash after about 2~3 hrs of game play. I easily fix the issue by taking breaks in between for the PC to cool down. However, for Metro Last Light, it crash without failed randomly from 5~20min into the game. This is really too much even for me to take. cry.gif cry.gif cry.gif

What I mean by "Crash":
- Kicked out to window mid of the game - Game Client Non-responsive. *Most frequent symptom*
- Screen freeze and non-responsive - Have to force restart PC. *Moderate frequent symptom*
- Driver crashed, kicked out to window, game client shut down. *Once in a while*

Metro Last Light settings as recommended but still experience crash every 5~15min:
Advance PhysX = Off
Resolution = 1204x768
Quality = Low
SSAA = Off
Testure Filtering = AF 4X
Motion Blur = Low
Tessellation = Off
VSYNC = Off

My PC specs:
Win 7 Ultimate 64bit
i5-3450 @3.10Ghz
8 GB Ram
Gigabyte GTX 550 Ti (970Mhz factory OC)
GPU Driver 320.49

Update the graphic driver, the game and then check the temperature?
Run 3DMARK to see if the GPU actually crash or it's the game *or other* problems might be the culprit.

Thank you for the advise. The driver is up to date according to GeForce Experience. Also, the temperature is stable at around 42 Celsius.

Will check out 3Dmark.
