My system:
Core i7 920 @ 4GHz
6GB 1600MHz DDR3
Geforce GTX 580 1.5GB
WDC Caviar Black 1TB 7200 rpm
Windows 7 64-bit
Yes,it's fast,specially when Overclocked.I usually had 18 fps before the latest oficial patch with a combination of low/med and high settings.
Now,with SSAO disabled,I put everything to max available settings and I have 28/36 fps over london,at med altitude at very low altitude when looking to the buildings and doing hard turns ocasionaly downing to 22.
Over minor cities I can dogfight intercept missions at med altitude 45/65 fps, downing to 28/33 at the same low altitude conditions I described.
Dogfighting over the channel is at 70/119 fps.
Even so,I can't reccomend system upgrade to you,because your machine it's a strong one and probably the cores of our CPU are very far from being reallly stressed because of no optimized code.
Probably we will have further optimization down the road yet.
