>>Performance gain is considerable for crossfire, at least for me and its only using 50%-60% of each of my 4 GPUs so clearly more optimisation to come.

I get avg 40FPS and 80FPS max in BlackDeath with single card and avg 74FPS and 176FPS max with crossfire. I call that significant. This is only in single player though.<<

>>Great work guys! Best performance and smoothness so far!!

Black Death Track AVG 67 FPS MAX 168 FPS MIN 15 FPS.
ATI Crossfire working all 4 GPU cores 50 to 60% smoothly.
Settings all High with 8xAA SSAO on, grass,roads,shadows on full screen mode w/ vsync off.

I notice the spit vs 110 track stutters and drops FPS a lot with the clouds though.<<

>>Finally able to play in my Laptops native resolution of 1920 x 1080 WOW!

Just did some quick tests over london which was fantastic. Not got my stick plugged in yet so i cant really do a proper flight but I just launched the london and manston flights and used mouse to pan around. Got average of 37 in the black death which I would imagine is acceptable?<<

>>Best performance and stability ever on my rig. I unzipped into the main installation folder and then cleared the cache folders as usual before running the sim.

Before this patch i had trouble with my GPU not clocking up as it should, then i tried forcing the clocks which worked but gave me reboots, then i renamed the ubi logo video file which again gave me correct GPU speeds but also resulted in instability and reboots.

With the current beta patch i just set it to run in fullscreen mode and the catalyst drivers took care of everything else.<<

Some good endorsements there....I would also quote Robtek and some others but their posts seem to have been hastily removed....

Sadly, it all speaks volumes. The triumph of wishful thinking? It was a mean trick to play (I had no inkling or part) but you have to agree, it is instructive....
