Rome total war running choppy on ASUS ROG GL551JW
I seem to be having a problem running Rome Total War on my ASUS ROG GL551JW. The game is choppy/glitch/laggy, no matter the video settings -- with max or min settings, the game remains choppy. This is strange given my being able to play Counter Strike: Source on max settings without a problem. Perhaps my computer is overqualified for Rome Total War? The specs for my comp are:
15.6-Inch FHD Screen. NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M 2G GDDR5 Discrete Graphics / Intel Core i7-4720HQ 2.6 GHz Processor (Turbo to 3.6GHz) / 1 TB 7200RPM Hard Drive. 16 GB DDR3 RAM / Wireless 802.11 A/C. 10/100/100 Gigabit Ethernet Port / 3x USB 3.0, 1x HDMI, 1x MiniDisplay port. SDXC Card Reader.
The recommended requirements for the game can be found here: http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri?gameName=rome-total-war&itemId=10210&p=r
It seems I should have no problem running this game without it being choppy. Any suggestions?
Thank you!

If you skipped step 1 , i would recommend starting the game and lowering graphics setting to medium/high, disabling Alpha for vegetation. Exit the game. The source of the lag is the enabled use unlimited graphics memory in graphics settings, basically causing too much swapping between Graphics RAM and system RAM.How do I fix Rome 2 Total War lag?
