Well, if you want to run IL2-1946 4.09beta with all details set to maximum, you need a damn fine machine to keep FPS above 30. If you fly above cities and zoom in, you can be lucky to have above 10 FPS even with stuff like Effects=2 disabled.

But if you look at games like UT3 you can easily see what can be done with modern engines using modern hardware to the edge and not with workarounds on a 10 year old program. And UT3 works on pretty medicore systems in full details.

Oleg always posted that it is useless to upgrade prior to the release and that many people will be surprised how good the game will work. It was that way with IL2, too, as he also stated in another interview. You never needed a 1000$ PC to run the game on full details.
