The only sim I have that might be close to what COD will be is ROF. The extensive flight models and heavy duty graphics and maps seem to me like they may be a close fit.

I am running a Palit Geforce 560Ti 2gig. When you do the settings in ROF it shows you what percentage of video ram you are using and when you get to 90% it flags a warning. Running at 1920x1080 with all the bells and whisltes turned up all the way I am using 53% of my available video ram. After I fly I close out the sim and pop up MSI Afterburner and it shows that I was using about 1.3 gig worth.

No one has actually laid hands on COD yet, so we dont know what is all going to be required for all the bells and whistles. But on ROF if you want to turn everything up you better have more than 1gig of video memory. 1.5 at a minimum. Bty, I get upper 50s to mid 60s fps in flight and upper 40s to low 50s in dogfights over a detailed landscape at low altitude. It is not jerky at all and would not know the frame rate even lowered if I was not running fraps. Running the card oc at 920 core and 2400 (4800) memory at stock voltage

The sad fact is we really have no clue as to what COD will take to run it with everything wide open till we get our hands on it. Seems kind of unfair.
