really low FPS (unplayable)

Hi, after I downloaded and install the game gets intro and when first time driving the car it's really LAG with med settings on 1080p aand it's pretty much unplayable. I don't think my rig would be lagging on that settings and I'm on the NVidia latest driver for my gpu and seem no problem on FPS playing other games. then I found this on my TASKBAR which says hmm really it takes up to 4GB ? I think I found the problem for my fps drop. any solutions? origin in game already off.

specs:

i7 3820 3.2ghz

asus gtx 680 2GB

16GB DDR3 ram 1.6 mhz

    Your machine may be defaulting to your Intel video processing on your CPU rather than your GTX 680.

    1. Open the nvidia Control Panel
    2. Click Manage 3D settings
    3. Click the Program Settings tab
    4. Click the Add button
    5. Select the game from the list or click browse and navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Need for Speed\NFS16.exe
    6. Select NFS16.exe and then Open
    7. Customise individual settings if you like
    8. Exit nvidia control panel and try playing.

    Try this procedure and let us know if you are able to play with expected performance, thanks. If your issue persists then posting your Dxdiag report will be helpful:
