Time to get proactive
 

Reading through some of the beta patch reports, its clear that some users found the patch beneficial even if it was only a few extra FPS. Where as others saw no gain at all. At a first glance it appeared that AMD users seemed to report more positive posts. So, would it be possible for those who did see some improvent to post what CPU they have below and also what operating system, no disscussion here please, just post what CPU you have and what speed it is running at if you found the patch to be an improvement. Obvioulsy this is not going to give us a complete picture but its a start.


many thanks

For example;-

AMD Phenom @ 3.00GHZ
Win 7 32 bit

I7 (Gulftown) @ 3.86GHz;
W7 64.

No change.

good to have you back tree. i think you have computer expertise from memory?

i7 @2,93GHz
Win7 64bit

Big improvement (no stutter), same fps
(details and screenshots in other posts)

AMD Athlon II X4 640

No difference.

i7 @ 2,6
Win7 x64

Improvment

i5 2500k at stock
win 7 64 bit

big improvement.
had to drop res from native down a notch pre-patch, post-patch its back up to 1920x1080, with trees and grass back on. still splutters and jerks, but nowhere near as bad.

AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual 5600+ 2.80 GHz

No way to run it.

~S~

Still stutters, some fps improvement over cities, I got reasonable fps with unlimited buildings with med quality.

I7 930, win 7 64bit

Guys thanks for your posts, but at this time could you just post your spec's if you have had an improvement.
