Quite right. It is not dropping as we check...

...and this is how we know. GPU-Z gives a steady 400mhz throughout all modes of CloD operation. This does not occur at any other time, or in any other game.

What drivers are you on? Could you check to see if your card is clocking properly so we can maybe start to identify what you've done that we've not? What's your full system spec? CCC settings? Maybe try helping instead of gloating?

If you have flash video acceleration enabled and running at the same time as running a game then it will be locked at 400Mhz as that is what the UVD uses and it cannot go any higher. So disable hardware acceleration in the flash settings before launching a game. Running one or more screens defaults to 400Mhz but that is the minimum not the maximum.

S!

@ The Oddball - beat me to it, was just coming to post this myself. Did some googling. TO quote you:

What's doing it is the BLOODY UBISOFT SPLASH SCREEN that appears when the game starts up - the vid plays and locks the card to UVD clock settings. I got around it by renaming the LOGO.wmv so it doesn't play:

Some feed back

Beta patch 2

Blanks out my extended screen which I use for vent etc.
Grey text in box is too hard to read if you have shot anyone down etc.
Wheel noise in spitfire in air seems to be back, touch and go to stop it
Vsync for me still only works if aero is on

Rolled back to Beta patch 1 to solve the above except Vsync

On the dedicated server beta 2 was unstable and unpredictable, beta 1 is very stable although some memory leaks noticeable keeps being logged out by steam, currently running beta 1.

have you tried hitting the brakes to stop the wheel noise?

No, will give that a try, thanks.

Does not work for me, they just keep a rumbling along with the tumbleing tumbleweed

What I find that works for me regarding wheel noise once I've lifted off is to lightly touch my landing gear to the ground again and the noise stops.

100% works for me. Renaming the Ubisoft logo so it doesn't load up fixed the issue. Looks like Maddox Games would be better off using something more recognised like Bink to play the logo. The flash video has terrible interlacing anyway.
