Settings MAX @ 60fps Booya!

Just did an upgraade

Ati 6950 2GB

Plus another 4GB of Ram. Total 8GB. Left the CPU as is. With everything on and running at 1900x resolution i'm sitting on 60fps. As much as the monitor can go.

Beautiful!

a stock hd6950 or have you overclocked to a HD6970?

No stock standard. Even better

I can believe you get 60fps above sea.

Running @60fps above land or even worse a city like London or Le Havre with your processor and everything fully maxed is a little less credible to me.

You will be surprised. Yes London is different but even then the bottleneck was my hard drive. Maybe an SSD would do the trick. Here are some pics. The Fps counter is sporadic and wont give a still reading. It was fluctuating +10fps.

Machoo your sig says "ATI 9650 2GB" I think you mean "ATI 6950 2GB"

It'll make a difference, no doubt - but it's no magic bullet.

I run CloD from a ram drive, which has a throughput of roughly 10x any SSD available right now. It still stutters over cities.
