Thanks for the reply Sawyer. Do you run in Open GL with landscape set to Perfect? And are your graphics issue-free?

Cheers, and glad the vids have been useful.

You shouldn't have any issues with IL2 and that card. I run a 5670

Yup, Open GL and settings to perfect. 11.10 drivers with no issues for 1946.

I can run CLoD but have to turn things down quite a bit. I'd look for a 2GB card for Dover.

Thanks guys for your warm welcome back and card insights.

I was thinking of an el-cheapo upgrade (I currently have a, ahem, 4670 lol). Well, it's done me okay.

I'll likely be flying IL2 (modded) for the next year while Dover smooths itself out. In fact it's some of the amazing mods which have pulled me back after doodling around for a while with other games (Command Ops: Battles from the Bulge, Achtung Panzer: Operation Star and Dirt 2).

I've actually got CloD but you can imagine what it's like with a 4670(!). It would be nice to have the ability to play it. In that case, another option would be a Palit GTX560 2GB, which is listed here:

I've heard good and bad things about Palit. Any thoughts about them and the card for CloD? It certainly should do the job. Clearly overkill for IL2 though.

Thx for any feedback...

PS PPP: I haven't received any PMs. I'll keep an eye out.

a 560 is reporeted to do very acceptable. a 2gb version should elimiante the lack of memory issues too.

teorectly that GPU should work nicely.

Edit: jsut checked the price. waht about a 7850? same price... and should be better no?

i ahve a 7870 and it aces the game. and a 7850 isnt that much worst.
