but far not enough for that crappy CloD.

Besrk,

your main rig is very very similar to mine except that your GPU is better and you don't give us the resolution you are running or your in-game settings. Mine are 1680 x 1050 and hammering 60fps (because of V-synch on) in flight, min 40 in dense combat and never below 30 around concentrated objects, usually higher. My settings are generally High with a few ground shadows/grass/building settings turned down because they are a big drain and unnecessary in a combat sim even if I were doing combat at 200 feet over London (and who needs to see the doorknobs anyway?).

If your rig won't run CoD you are probably demanding too high settings. You may want the max settings and I believe there are still some issues with CoD graphics but it is completely playable if you lower your sights to just damn good graphics instead of the ultimate.

On the other hand, if for various reasons you have placed yourself in the 'I Hate CoD' camp or are a fervent pro-777/anti-1C simmer then I guess nothing will persuade you to try it again but I genuinely believe it's your loss.
