Low FPS in cities on a high end PC

[swiss]

Not sure if it's the card alone, and I also hate to tell you your system is not even mid end, sorry.

My experience was that a 4650 is way to weak for IL2, however the 260GTX is solely bought for this purpose was an overkill, a 9800 would have been enough.

I see the main prob in the CPU area - IL2 uses only one core, so a dual core will do no good, what you you need is a least one fast core, if I remember correctly the peak is somewhere around 3.0Ghz.

(I actually can confirm that, I got almost no fps gain when I switched from a X2 6000+@3.0 to a X4@3.6)

I did notice a difference from 4000+@2.0 to the above mentioned 6000+ though.


BUT: Even with with a 2010 $3k PC you will get the stutters over big cities, those are caused by to the old code the game is programmed in.


+1 on the config.
