Well, did you get the job?

What settings do you use for CloD? My major "tweak" to a better gameplay was to lower my expectations...

Well.. won't know if I've got it till at least a week's time.... cheers for the "good lucks" Interview seemed to go pretty well though. Fingers crossed

Lower my expectations? lol I figured I would have to do that but..... lower my settings? It is actually running worse on this graphics card than it did on the HD 6770 1gb! I'm certain it isn't the card or incorrectly installed drivers etc as I am now able to play all the Total War series on Ultra settings, with Darthmod (Essentially hundreds of men with 40 unit armies!), Crysis 2 on full (With the directx11 & Hi res textures)..etc...etc...all as smooth as a hot knife through butter..... and yet CloD happiness eludes me. lol I wasn't expecting miracles as I know the CPU and ram need an upgrade (Next on the list) but I wasn't expecting these kind of problems at all.

The really infuriating thing is that I can actually fly with everything on high, shadows etc.... until the dreaded Bomber formations turn up... what is it, specifically, about bombers that makes even the mere suggestion of their presence somewhere out there cause my PC to grind to a slide show?

Offline mainly. Online..... well.... I've never managed to get close to a bomber formation! Mainly because, on the old card, every time I tried flying missions my game would turn into a slideshow, I'd lose the entire squadron and then go face first into a hill.

Been using "Bomber intercept over London" (With autopilot) as a benchmark as Black Death stutters way too much (Mainly when the radio kicks in) so never provides a real measure of performance for me.

Well, Flying over London is the worst thing you can do when it comes to performance... Just too much buildings...

How many fps do you get in free flight over the channel?

That's the funny thing.... with Vsync off I am achieving obscene fps... roughly 138 over the sea and around 67-70 over land give or take. This is with shadows and SSAO on as well (Still fiddling with the settings). As soon as any bombers turn up, mind, the game turns into a flick book. Clusters of fighters, all guns blazing, tend to lower my fps, over land, to between 27 and 35 with is just fine.
