As I posted over at the Ubi forum (
http://forums.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/t...8811092619/p/2), my CloD-eating Beast PC has arrived, and I'm just in the process of setting it up for the sim:
MOBO - X58 Asus Sabertooth X58
CPU - Intel i7 950 Quad Core 3.06Ghz (overclocked to 3.80Ghz)
RAM - 12 GB (3x4GB) Corsair DDR3 (1600)
GPU - XFX 6970 2GB
PSU - 1000W Corsair
SSD - 128 GB
HDD - 1 TB SATA 2
OS - Win 7 Home Premium 64bit
Case - Antec Three Hundred
Monitor 24" Samsung
I've downloaded the latest Radeon drivers (11.5), and I don't think there is anything else that is out-of-date. At some point I'll probably try a RAM disk, but for now CloD is installed on the HDD (I could also try moving critical files to the SSD). Can anyone give a suggestion or two as to how I should optimise the graphics setup for CloD? I'm sure that I can figure it all out, but if anyone has a similar setup, help would be appreciated.
