I totally agree with you. I was trying to point out that if a hypothetical system of each cpu manufacturer can render >60 fps worth of game play with 100 JU 88's is you wont see a difference past your monitor refresh rate.

Its like buying a Ferrari over a Prius to drive at 100kph on the highway. Sure the Ferrari has more power and is faster but when your speed is limited to "60hz" they both are equal.

I'm not trying to fight with anyone on here, but once the game comes out, let's have someone make a mission with 200+ planes bombing London with fighters and tons of AAA shooting back. Well have someone with an AMD run the mission and someone with a 2500K run the mission and see who has the best framefrate. Graphics cards and RAM would also have to be similar, but I have no idea what I'm going to get yet. Then the debate will be settled.

From what Luthier as said I doubt any PC would be able to handle that lot.

I have to agree with Tree here as begrudging as that is.

Well, you get my point. I my money is on the AMD dropping below 30 fps first compared to a similar 2500K system.


I like to put as much stuff as possible into my missions until the framerate starts to become unacceptable. It seems like most historical action occurred on a much larger scale than COD or IL2 can handle on most computers, and I like to get as close as possible before the computer starts to freak out.
