I got this card now http://www.mindfactory.de/product_in...--Retail-.html

but iam still not able to run the game all maxed out! no SSAO

over london still not more than 20 fps

overall still jumping fps over land down low! Even under 20 fps!

so a 7970 is no guarantee with this shitty engine! All at 1920*1200!!

Rise of flight however maxed out is smooth and a blast.

driver version 12.3

I got 8 gb corsair ram and 1055T AMD 6 Core cpu! It seems CLOD does not like AMD at all!

I think you have a problem with processor speed.
You should try to overclock it to 3.5 GHz at least, but only with aftermarket
cooler if you have one, because thubans are hot.
Also, you should check how many phases your mobo have on VRM ( voltage regulation ).

With some Ati cards yes, it leaves GPU to 2D speeds.

I got it!!!!!


Despite the fact i deleted the intro the GPU is staying at 501 MHZ!

Must be a powerplay issue! Maybe i can resolve it with a profile!


Ok fixed it but not better performance! Afterburner was showing wrong numbers!

This engine was not developed for resolutions higher than 1920x1080. Let's hope a patch can help or we have to wait till 2013-2015 videocards for extreme (higher than fullHD) res. Nothing comes for free. Resolution neither.

Clouds, weather and landscape improvements in BoM will put new hardware to its knees again on extreme resolutions. The devs optimise for mainstream resolution only because further optimisation for extreme resolutions is too costly in terms of resources used and image quality hit.

Solution is to use mainstream resolution or buy a new top video card every 6 - 12 months if you are rich. Sims are more demanding than any shooters due to high visibility distances and modelling detail.

That is part of it, COD is not optimized for multi core CPU’s very well and it is still a very CPU dependent game. My card is only working at 30% but one of my CPU cores is working at 85% to 90% (the others are going at 20% to 30%). Over clocking gave me solid gains and I plan to push my CPU as close to 4Ghz as I can, but unless the developers are able to make COD take more advantage of other cores I think the Intel guys are going to have a better time with their higher memory read/write times and higher CPU speeds.

I have everything set to high with the exception of Trees (low for online play) and buildings which are on unlimited, However I have grass off (causes serious stutters) and Shadows off. This gives me solid mid 40’s FPS over towns and low 80’s most everywhere else. Shadows was what pulled my frames down, with shadows on and the same game setting I would get mid 20’s over towns and it would drop to high teens with other aircraft and flack. I am hoping with the optimization they are able to rectify some of these issues.
