Well saying you have a $2000 Dell computer doesn't help anyone that can help you tweak your settings to get the game to run properly. Just an FYI I have a $900 computer and I get 30 to 40 with most settings on high. At least post what your video card is and not just say "a great video card". I use the GTX460 1GB. And I am not hating on you but next time you have $2000 to spend on a computer, you should build your own and not get ripped off by pre built computers. It literally takes 2 hours or less to put a computer together and you do not need to be a computer genius. $2000 will get you a better computer than most people have and I promise you that you will be really happy with this sim. You should really give this game another chance. And please post your system specs otherwise this thread just looks like a troll made it.

*Edit*
After looking up the Dell XPS I realized that it is a laptop. I am not sure you're going to be able to play really demanding games on a laptop.

First- it's not a laptop that I have- it is a desktop computer. That said the point is I should not have to tweek it!!!! It should work. You have just become use to buying a piece of poo.

If your serious about this game you need a desktop with a recent high end video card.

I just checked and Dell XPS Desktop 8500 and Studio 9100 only have $100 video cards. Did you upgrade your video card?
They are entry level $100 video cards. Im afraid you just dont have anywhere enough of good enough video card for this game unless you upgraded the default video card.

Works reasonably well for me. I get the occaisional Launcher crash but I don't find CloD as bad as some say. Some frustrating aspects for sure but I enjoy what works well.

Its a glass half full/half empty scenario, we all know the problems, we all know what needs to be fixed it just some people focus on the water they have and some focus on the water that isnt there....

I've just build a high end pc for a customer with a limit for the hardware of 2000 €.
MB Asus Rampage IV, i7 3820, 16 gb DDR3, GTX680, 3 x 1TB drives ( raid v) and a 750 W PS.
All, except the PS, watercooled in a fanless watercooled Chieftek Tower from Innovatek.
That baby runs CoD very well, actually its overkill for the state it is right now, plus it reaches 57°C max. under full load with NO NOISE except from the harddrives!

You did not put in at least one SSD? I have close to what you built with two gtx680's and two SSD's. Overkill with this game. The game runs worse under sli, more big stutters. When I have the game hooked up to 3x1680x1050 monitors in surround mode it atomatically goes into sli mode because I spread the load over the two cards. For some reason hooking three monitors to one card and a fourth 30inch 2560x1600 monitors to the second GPU just prevents me from having surround mode.

I prefer the 3370x1680(bezel correction)resolution over the big 30 inch monitor but it's a bummer I have the stutters. Before I got my second gtx680 and 30 inch I ran all three of just one card and that ran fine, no stutters. For this game the extra gtx680 is not only overkill, it hobbles it actually because sli, though working, lowers temps but hardly any fps increase, is still porked. Runs RoF, DCS A10 and FSX just fine though so untill Il2CoD is patched up I'm done trying to fine tune it. When fixed I'll contemplate taking one 680 out if that's what keeps if from running perfect. The other two are better in sli but still very playable with just one GPU.

What really surprised me is that when I have sli enabled over two cards the 30 inch monitor get's blacked out. Not a big deal in CloD but in FSX it's nice to have a fourth screen. The 3370x1680 surrounds are hooked up thru dvi-d and the 30 inch thru displayport. If anyone sees I'm overlooking something let me know. I'm running the latest Nvidia driver.

And don't forget, prebuilt computers come with weak power supply so you will probably just need to upgrade graphics card and power supply. Your looking at 200-300 dollar upgrade for your Dell bhunter.
