As of overclocking..even the 2500K does it nicely I am not very keen overclocker anymore. Too much fiddling around. Sure maybe a few MHz could help, but I want to OC only the CPU in that case as 1600MHz DDR3 should be fast enough.

As of testing other games...World of Tanks ran great. GTA IV had a strange anomaly, it let me play only in 800x600 because I was at "edge of running out of resources"..WTF?! 200mb of 3Gb used and game says no resources?! Now how I can reset the game settings to get it to work again..

Anyways..back to testing. Last night took a quick swing at a Repka dogfight server. Ran smoothly without stuttering, so very nice

Hello Flanker, do you think you could test something for me? My frame rates are roughly those of yours. When I am landing, and press for the 3rd person view of my plane, as it touches down, and the dust starts, my frames drop under 10 FPS. Can you tell me what your FPS are with your card with this scenario? Thank you!

Will do Reporting back in a moment.

FPS dropped from 60fps to 40fps at worst dusting while landing. So not a big hit compared to 6970HD where it went very low. Still the particles, smoke etc. could use an optimization

Ataros, my bet is on the drivers as the card is so new. A few driver revisions might give us a nice boost etc. But checking those links you put up

Thanks Flanker, that is pretty amazing. Were you inside the cockpit when you noticed the frame drop from 60-40, or were you on the f6 or f8 3rd person chase scene when the dust kicked up? If so, I cant understand why the geforce 580 with 3 gigs would take such a huge hit, my cpu runs at 3.4 and its the fastest AMD multicore out there. I may have missed it, but what screen resolution are you running?
Thanks again for your help!

I was in F2 view looking back at the dust. Running 1920x1080 resolution. Just feels strange that only game with problems is IL-2, rest run without a glitch now. Well, I remain confident about the performance patch Luthier & Co are working on
