Other than CPU, we're not dissimilar - 5770s, 3gig of RAM to my 4gig. Are you running crossfire, or just a single GPU - with crossfire I see terrible stutter no matter what I do.

More powerful GPU will certainly help - the newish GTX5xx series are very good for CloD from what I've read on the forums, but I'd think about a CPU upgrade too. I'm no expert though, at the end it's all trial and error really. Lower textures and no shadows will certainly help - but it's up to you how much graphical quality you want to sacrifice.

Also, try pseudo windowed mode, that might help. Vysnc & SSAO off, no grass/roads/etc and buildings/building detail low.

i cant sacrifice anything that will spare me out of the stutters.... if i throw away shadows buildings and textures i get regular FPS, but stuttering is still there...


thanks for the feedback.

Which quadcore are you using? There are so many out there ...

Is your graphics card installed in a PCI-E 1x slot maybe? The tool GPU-Z could tell you that.

I ran tests with my GTX 570 in the PCI-E 1x slot (better airflow and cable management in that slot) and the only game that suffered dramatically from it was CloD. Other games like Arma2 or DCS-A10C where not affected much, lost maybe 5 fps in there, but CloD became unplayable in medium settings.

The tool for info about the GPU is called Gpu-Z.
