I have to admit that there are some settings that I have turned "off" to be able to get reasonable game play. With a low specs system you can't expect to have all settings "on". In the realisim settings the only thing I have "on" at the moment is "vulnerability", also I have "clouds off" (these are a big hit on my system) also I fly "cockpit on" but in "shift-F1" mode (this I find gives me about 5fps extra), if I fly "no cockpit" I can have about a 8---10fps increase. I am still experimenting with "realisim" settings to see what I can have on without to big a fps hit, will post my results.
Hope to have an upgrade to my system in the next 2---3 months but will hold back until further patches have come through, don't know wether to upgrade cpu or graphics first. If I decide on cpu it will mean about a $1000-00NZD upgrade as it will be new M/B,cpu and Ram (probably an i5 or i7 system).
