Frame-rate Issues

I get FPS in the 20s and then teens when it comes to driving through the Bay Bridge area in San Francisco.

My Spec's are
-Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @2.4gHz
-6GB RAM
-NVidia GeForce 9800 GTX+ 512mb GDDR3 memory
-Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bit OS

Thanks!

Just upgrade your 2.4GHz for greater playability (this is minimal for the game). Many that report problems fall into this category. Otherwise you're good to go.

It is 2.4gHz, but minimal states a 2.4 Pentium 4 (single core), right? I guess it wouldn't make mine any better if the game doesn't support multiple cores, though. Yet, I do seem to notice all cores being active while running the game.

the game does support multiple cores. i have a AMD X64 X2 dual core processor and gives me 2.7 ghz, and the game runs great

The game is poorly optimized. 2.4GHz is just not going to cut it, and when they wrote the requirements they put no thought into it. I have a 2.83GHz 2 core quad, 8GB Ram, and my frame rate never drops below 30 anywhere. The point is the higher your CPU speed, the better the game will run. Look at all the problems reported here, and you'll find that the majority of them are CPU's with 2.4GHz regardless of cores.
