This is from a test I did last November and posted on these forums at that time.

All of my tests are running at 1920x1200 resolution, 16xAF, 16XQAA, water=4, forest=3 and 3dgunners=1. For the record I play using water=3. My rig just doesn't like water=4 but I did the tests with it anyway. Oh, and my driver is 158.22. I found that for now, it works best.

For the Black Death I got Min.29 Max.109 Avg.73.736
For Kamikaze I got Min.27 Max.239 Avg.71.884

I also used ProcessAffinityMask=2 which only uses the second core I believe. Even having a four core system, Il2 seems to run best using only Core#2 for some reason. If there is a way to somehow optimize this quad core system I am all ears.

The ONLY difference now is that I am currently using Driver 162.18 with nearly identical results.

My rig:
QX6700 @ 3.21 MHz
2 Gigs Ram
2 x 8800 GTX 768 MB running in SLI
2 x 140 GB Raptors (raid 0) + 375 GB Storage Drive
Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio
1KW PSU
Windows XP SP2
and a bunch of other stuff
