After adding a SSD for CloD, it ran better. Unfortunatly still got large- and micro stutters. I'm still waiting for better Crossfire support. Two 1 GB ati 4890 OC won't do the trick just yet. So probably it would be more interesting with one 1,5+Gb card and a 4 Gb extra RAM.

As a non-believer of all the placebo fixes out there I can confirm that a SSD made a BIG difference for me too. In conjunction with the latest beta patch the game runs better than ever.

A new marketing idea??.. buy a ssd with Cliffs of Dover. I noticed that the HDD led kept blinking during play, so CloD needs a lot of HDD traffic.
