I've downloaded the latest Radeon drivers (11.5), and I don't think there is anything else that is out-of-date. At some point I'll probably try a RAM disk, but for now CloD is installed on the HDD (I could also try moving critical files to the SSD). Can anyone give a suggestion or two as to how I should optimise the graphics setup for CloD? I'm sure that I can figure it all out, but if anyone has a similar setup, help would be appreciated.

Hey that's a nice system and you should be able to enjoy this title with it. If this system is virgin just install the os and patch up and don't add a bunch garbage to it and keep the system quiet as you can.

I have been using ram disk lately and I see a huge difference. I use 5 GB of ram for it and I add my map file plus several others. I have recently posted several videos in these forums touring London in what I been told was wonderwomen view. That's without anything on the screen just London and I get very few shutters and these settings are everything on as high as it goes.
