What other ww2 sim have you ever seen where the planes belch fire and smoke out the misfiring coughing exhaust? Just give it time and quit freakin out over 50 $ . It really isn't that much money these days .
freaking out over 50$? i dont, but i upgraded my whole comp just for COD right before it came out, that was a few hundred €, and im a student and dont swim in money, really if i had known i would have waited 2 years and gotten a much better comp for the same price or the one i have now for much less money. I dont play any other games than Il2 (and if it would run COD) so the upgrade was TOTALLY useless. Pls dont forget that you cant judge other people by comparing to yourself, for you certain things might be no problem, but they might be for others.

Than you made bad upgrade.I also upgraded PC before CloD came out and didn't have performance problems, and I was wondering, will the gtx560 Ti
play Clod well.
Year ago you could buy AMD x4 for 100 euro, put it on 4 GHz and play w/o a problem.My friend did that and with plain 560(non Ti) has good performance.
Similar prices are today i5 procesors are only bit cheaper, FX-4100 is 100 euro
and unfortunatly performs slower in games then phenoms or thubans.
Middle class graphic cards prices didn't fall down much also.

easy answer YES!

i've got one and are with my system getting between 45 en 78 fps.
Using ingame AA wich now workes cost me 20 fps using Nvidia AA doesnt seem to cost anything.
In game AA is slightly better as the on screen text is not antialiast.
In both cases the game is smooth. wich is the important thing.
I dont give a !@#$% about FPS if the game is stuttering or freezing.
I do get more CMD's with the patch first i played for three hours straight without one now i'm getting them every 20 min.

I'd like to remark about the ctd's mentioned in this thread: Most of those are probably actually Windows 7 errors and can sometimes be recognized by "The Graphics Driver has stopped working and was restarted".
I have this error sometimes 3 to 4 times shortly after starting CoD, forcing me each time to restart the game, when i start it then again, i can play for hours.
The same happens with ArmA 2, but not that often and not that regularily.

I had that problem robtek, I fixed it by reinstalling the graphics drivers from disk then auto updating via steam... You have to install the full suite though. Do not install the CCC.

ASUS EAH 6850CU

I think CCC and AMD Vision Engine Center were conflicting... but I really have no idea.
