Why GFX card with more RAM?

You are lucky or you have a lot turned down. I have nearly the same rig as you with more ram and 2x gtx 580 3 gb and it stutters and looks bad with no AA or AF even with decent fps. CoD uses way more video ram than you have so you must have it turned way down or fly over water all the time. It uses upwards of 2.5 gb vram and I have a few things turned down and that is with no AA or AF remember. Turn those on and it would be a slide show for everyone, that's for sure. That is proof of a need for optimization. I look forward to the next patch and stutter free flying.


I also have had a couple of CTD's and the launcher doesn't respond sometimes when you change settings and it reboots the game. BTW, why does the game have to restart whenever you change video settings?

EDIT: "On the other hand, locating a memory leak can take many long months of dedicated work by some extremely qualified programmers." -Luthier today. There well may be memory leaks which I had suspected.
