If you make the game to look a bit better in some aspects than IL2 1946 it gets utterly unplayable.
Yesterday I was chatting with a squad mate that lives in UK and he said: "I have I7 @ over 3GHz, 12GB of ram, a GT580 combined with a gt460, win 7 64, etc... and besides getting low FPS (around 30) at max settings (1920x1080) I get continuous and annoying stutters and when I get over London is finished... game over... under 10FPS." His satisfaction was in negative numbers...

Well even my rig suffers, over London I was getting fps in the 20s, dropping to 15-20 as I scanned around with TrackIR, that was with Medium Forest and Medium Buildings Amount, 1680x1050, AAx4, AFx8. I then reduced Forest to Very Low and Buildings to Low for two reasons. There are far too many individual trees around (just like FSX) and it just looks wrong especially in London. Very Low seems better. Also Forest and Buildings Amount are known hogs which MG are working on to render in a different way. So with Very Low Forest and Low Buildings Amount I get 30-40fps, dropping into the 20s as I scan around. When I set Building
Details from High to Medium I get another 5-10 fps over London (30-45). That should all improve when they patch it.
And thats the point, you may need to play with some settings especially those that don't really matter. MG may have given us a zillion trees but not only doesn't it look right I can do without them.
Does your friend have the 580 combined with 460 in SLi ? (didn't know you could with 2 different cards) because SLi is porked atm, its a fix they are working on. A single GPU works better than 2 atm, also I saw someone raise the question about dual cards (580?) asking if they work as 2 cards in SLi mode but that may be a red herring.
I also have Shadows off and Grass off (who needs it?).
I'm sure things will get better but just like FSX I don't think the PCs are out there yet that can deliver everything the game has to offer.
