I'll pay for this one! After several months with the game shelved I had a go with the new patch, and it was a complete disappointment in terms of performance/stability.

I'm sorry to hear you have performance issues, it's also very surprising considering your PC's specs. It's running fine on my system, better not upgrade LOL! Seriously, maybe you should check all your systems' parts or something.(?)

Its strange when you see people having problems on 'high end' rigs. My computer plays CoD pretty good on lower settings.

Thanks for all the inputs.

Although I am not a computer expert, I am what I would call a computer optimizer freak…

My system comes from a clean install (3 weeks ago) with all Win updates and drivers (Intel, soundcard, GPU, controllers, etc.)

All I can say is that my system runs every single game I own at very high or full details with great playability.

e.g. Empire Total War, CoD, Crysis 2 and recently BF3... I can run FSX with very high settings and tons of add-ons @ 30 fps average. Black Shark, FC2 and A-10 also run terrible good in my system.

After the last patch I am experiencing terrible stutters/freezes (3 secs +) along with computer lockups (need to hit the reset button) and CTD’s. I guess I can wait a few more months…

Regards.

How often is it recommended that people clean and reinstall windows?

I've been having some performance issues and I haven't done a clean install for 2 years. Will my BIOS settings stay the same if I do do this?

Done all the stress tests... After all I do have my i7 @ 4.2 Ghz.

Prime, intelburntest, memtest... You name it, I have run them all!

Cheers.

PS1: All of my drives + registry are defraged.

PS2: Now, while flying, I have popup windows saying that my system is low on memory. Epic fail the way things are for me right now...

Here I do it every 6 months +-.
A clean install won't mess with your BIOS settings. Just make sure you backup your documents/work/files, bookmarks, emails (if they are locally stored) and game settings/configurations/controls.

Regards.
