Well obviously the processes running will make a difference and your SSD will make a slight difference but you say you havnet even got the mod enabled?

well before i installed that mod the game was pretty much unplayable unless everything was set to Low-Med gfx so thats confuses me even more..

I will say though ive since adjusted my resolution to what you were using and got to 40fps over Sea but it did look pretty shocking on a native 1920x1200 screen...8-10 fps increase from just removing spit mirror

Yeah that mirror is crap anyway, about as usefull as a chocolate fireguard in its current state.

thing is we wont know untill the next patch, that should give us some clues..

I got this rig with the money i had available just after Xmas with this game in mind lol.. i mean upgrading to 64bit OS and maybe more ram is doo-able..Corsair is cheap enough for what it is=decent Ram but anymore than that i cant do not yet..

i just hope i can play it with looking how i want it to look and how i know it can from the vid's we have all seen without having to spend another 2-300 quids

well I guess by my own experience there is real hope for that, the patch really did make a massive improvement, and I find it hard to believe the suggestions the game code is inherently 'broken', at least we don't pay for patches.

Change resolution to see the difference.

Do both the systems have AERO disabeld that gave me a 10 fps increase in general.


System spec win7 32 P8P67 EVO I5 2500k 4 Ghz
Nvidia GTX 560 ti 1GB 4GB 1333 kingston Scyte Mugen2 cooler

I haven't touched Aero...I'm quite happy with the performance at the moment.

Hmmm ... Everybody talking about resolution ... Yep ... it's matter ...

But GTX470 eats 5770 to breakfast ...

Those PC's do not have nearly same spec ... the second one has more RAM, more faster GPU, lower resolution, better CPU, and an operating system which can handle the memory within the PC ...

when I first tried ROF it stuttered badly...unplayable...then again my friend had the same GPU and CPU, OS and RAM (we bought PCs together) and was stutter free in ROF...later after few patches I got the same performance....so....I would say difference is due to bad optimisation of the sim...its typical situation when bad optimisation is the case...

Play both rigs at the SAME resolution if you want to benchmark .

Then the fps will tell us something .
