I've got my cpu up to3.6..and dialed down the resolution..on buildings and such...I am still playing "original" textures..but am getting a good fps boos witht he resolution down..how much "detail" eye candy do I lose at the lower resolution? Also.where the fps really takes a dramatic hit is when Im engaging and have both guns and cannons firing..I can get a sure 15 fps drop quite quickly..thanks.
