...today we still have to sacrifice everything for our further advanced physics and object calculations.

Yes, this may be true, but this may be also a cheap trick to excuse bad coding optimisations.

I still have an Athlon 3000 with 1 giga of ram and a Radeon pro 9700 - so basically now a third-world pc -and IL2 is still quite smooth and pretty on it.

I will have in a few months a Bulldozer octocore with 12 gigas of ram and a Nvidia 580 with 3 gigas (for rendering work) and I'm no more ready to believe that with a 2011 config (even with a less powerful one) it's still not possible to have, at the same time, enough ressource for physics calculations and graphic calculations, at least at a level noticably different than ten years ago.
