what to upgrade first?

true the video card was a pretty cheap one.but to nats:i already have 4gb ram,although the more the better.
i will wait and see if it is better to buy a new processor or video card and ram.both at the same time a cannot afford at the moment.

while waiting, i enjoy the game how it is.today i set up a mission in fmb with 18 hurries and 8bfs over france.i still had 25fps average(although there were only small villages nearby)i set the time to 5:30 in the morning.it looked awesome.the colours are much better in evening or morning in my opinion.the fields and the shadows of trees and buildings just look real at dawn.and also the water of rivers look way better than at high noon where it looks a bit too deep blue in my view.i love this game with all its problems.

Thats actually not bad. Technically thats equivalent to 720p. If you get decent fps then begin adding trees and buildings till you see a significant drop in fps. ALso instead of increasing your resolution try adding 2X AA that will be roughly the same as increasing your resolution but be more fps friendly.

well with these fps, i have trees on average,and buildings amount on the second lowest.buildings detail on low.model detail,effects and damage detail all on max.
the rest on medium.
