The only time I get really bad stutters is when flying tree top level,to compensate I turn off Grass and turn down Shading.I can't live without Cockpit Shadows

stock.

to be hoenst, if i had your pc i wouldn't care for an upgrade. please note, my upgrade was from a 4-5 year old system. yours is what? 1 year old? i advise you to not buy anything until new GPUs come out ( SOON nvidea and ATI will come up with new stuff, the 7870 660, 670. 680), and the new i5 series, who will feature pci3 support. Also, waiting fore the performance patch!, if a system like yours cant top the game after a performance patch, im out.
