So - whats your FPS on the new Black Death track?

So - now I got my GTX580 (and all the other stuff accept the Obsidian 650D chassis which will arrive in "two weeks"! Doh!).

Never the less - now I could do the interesting test of throwing in a GTX580 in my old rig to try how CPU limited it is - and YES it sure is


My old setup and score:

Core2Duo E8400@3.3 - GTX275 - 6 GB DDR2 800Mhz - P45Mb
-------------------------------------------------------
Frames, Time (ms), Min, Max, Avg
6851, 218058, 9, 69, 31.418
-------------------------------------------------------

My new setup and score (just swapped the GTX275 for a GTX580 which should be a LOT faster):

Core2Duo E8400@3.3 - GTX580 - 6 GB DDR2 800Mhz - P45Mb
-------------------------------------------------------
Frames, Time (ms), Min, Max, Avg
7230, 217293, 13, 70, 33.273
-------------------------------------------------------

So I gained ~1.9 fps in average

Updated my original post too...

Let us know how it fares if you install the new beta patch. Congrats on the new hardware.

Thanks

I get 15 min, 78 max and 37 average with the new patch according to my rules - a good improvement. The interesting thing is that I get 60 - 70 fps 500 feet over Dover where I previously was on 30 - 40 (old gpu and 305 patch). The fps increase is awsome! So the limiting factor in the black death track is much less the GPU than in the "real" game...
