Low FPS on Decent system

[IceFire]

Aside from any problems... Berlin will bring a system to a standstill. Any system. It's an engine problem that has to do with dealing with large numbers of objects on the screen at once. It bogs down and it doesn't seem to matter how much computing power is thrown at it... Berlin and Leningrad are the two that you can't do much about.

Best option to see if things are working or not is to run one of the track recordings called Black Death and enable the fps counter and report back with the final reading at the end of the track (hit pause and write it down).

To start the fps counter from in-game.

Press: Ctrl+Tab
Type: fps START SHOW
Press Ctrl+Tab to clear the screen

yes, agree above. also, make sure you run game on one core. that seems to help fps. u should be able to get >30 fps over leningrad and berlin I think . i run old 8600 gt landgeom=3 and I do (but im running 3.0, so that may make it different than stock). your hardware is better, so I think you can too. go into fmb, open up finland map and put your cursor over leningrad. drill down to sea level and move the red/green/circle dealy bob over the leningrad city/buildings with in-game fps counter on that icefire says. You should be >30 for the most part. if not adjust your settings. black death is good test too and the benchmark everyone uses. i suggest try to keep minimum score ~ 30 on that. Your average, with vsync on, should be running around your monitor refresh rate.
