My cpu is AMD dual core 3.0 Ghz. That was before the patches. I posted the pic somewhere in a RAAAID thread. So, it does run better than 3 fps XP, even with unsupported hardware and minimal ram.

People are in denial on this game so they blame XP. Case in point. Look at Tuckie's video with 50 some odd planes in the air in offline test. He has a latest system. There is obvious stuttering and he had to tone down the graphics to get it playable. Now I remind you, the game advertised 128 player online capability. Ask yourself, "how it that going to happen?" Everyone would have to tone down the graphics settings to bare minimum on their latest hardware systems? I don't know about you, but when I start getting lag stutters online, I'm out of there. So, it's just a dream this CLoD. All the crazy things people are willing to do here to get the game to function. It's admirable, but not rational. And telling people to throw money at this game is nonsense right now. Just wait until they fix it so we know what we are dealing with. Every patch so far seems to change the game radically. If luthier announces that fps may improve by 50%, then wait and see if it is the truth or not before doing anything. JMHO.

stuttering has issues with stuff not related to graphics. i still have stutters with all graphics set to low if i go near a plane.
