I guess running maxed out means different things for everyone. If I fly alone over the English countryside, I get a constant 60 FPS (which is the limit I'm using), but with more planes and over London, I wouldn't say that I can run it maxed out with smooth FPS (it's not stuttering or freezing or anything though).

If you run everything maxed out (especially textures) then yes. The OP doesn't want to be able to do that though.

Depends a lot on the settings. If you want to run it maxed out in all situations, you need both. I didn't write about the situation on other games.

Of course, but that's what he already posted in his topic. He can't afford to upgrade both his video card and CPU at the same time and he is ready to make a compromise and reduce settings if he has to.
