Well... I'm not doing anything special I know of. The difference may be the video cards you have, your CPU and/or the video settings you are using.

I'm using maxed out video settings with a resolution of 1920x1080 and, by today's standards, rather weak HD5850s. If you have newer and better cards (6950, 6970, etc) and/or are running lower video settings you may not be pushing your cards.

Also, I have noticed what I believe to be my CPU (or maybe RAM) bottle-necking things (when lots of activity, lots of other planes in the air) as my framerates will drop and at the same time my GPU utilization will also drop (which I presume to be because the CPU is not delivering fast enough).
