A friend told me to wait with purchasing CloD for a year...

Blackdog, thanks for taking the time. You write long posts but they're always substantial.

Like you pinpointed my problem is really the high resolution (2560 x 1440). If I just go down a notch I have very acceptable frames. But the problem is like you already know, if you run at anything else than native then this game looks really...not good.

I don't use black death as the absolute truth but more of one tool amongst many. Pre patch I usually stayed above 30 fps but now I'm mostly under.
I've tweaked the settings and overclocked my card just so I do not have to lower my res and enter the world of fuzzyness and pixelation but no other option with the beta.

This beta reminds me of a scene in Saving Private Ryan. On Omaha where a medic struggles to save a guys life and just when he thinks he managed to stop the bleeding a bullet in the head ends the life of his patient. His outcry resembles mine after the patch install: "Give us atleast a friggin change".

Last note: If it hadn't been for my wife I had put my $3500 on a PC and you and I wouldn't be having this conversation.
