Back to the topic...

I'm new owner of this card and here is my setup:
CPU - Intel E6300@2.8
MB - Asus P5Q-E
RAM - 2x2GB Geil800CL5 BlackDragon
PSU - Corsair750W
VGA - MSI ATI HD4850
OS - Win Vista 64 bit
Drivers - ATI Catalyst 8.6 Hotfixed

PF settings - Perfect, Water2, Landgeometry3, Efects2, 1280x1024, 4xAA, 4xAF - Kamikaze02 track FPS Avg45, Max167, Min10
PF settings - Perfect, Water2, Landgeometry3, Efects2, 1280x1024, 8xAA, 8xAF - Kamikaze02 track FPS Avg41, Max153, Min9
PF settings - Perfect, Water2, Landgeometry3, Efects2, 1280x1024, 8xAA, 8xAF - TheBlackDeath track FPS Avg44, Max94, Min13

It seems, that this flight sim is quite CPU dependent..
When I was on stock CPU freq. (1.8GHz), FPS results in Kamikaze02 track were: Avg31, Max118, Min6

When I fly online (on UK3 Dedicated server) FPS are at average about 60-90.

For this sim, even the current "midrange" cards (GTX260 and HD4850) provide great performance superior to anything previously available...including the 8800 series. You hit the nail on the head regarding this sim's CPU dependence and any improvement you can grab in that department through upgrades and/or overclocking will provide more performance than any GPU upgrade beyond the 8800 series.

Yes iL2 is VERY CPU intensive... a bump up of 0.2 in CPU speed will give you about 10% more FPS... so better to OC your CPU (or upgrade your CPU) then the graphic card... Finally we dont run this sim at very high resolution anyway... and high res are where these card shine....

You are OK for your hardware. With about the same system (the difference being my E6600 @ 3.2 Ghz) and same settings my minimum fps in the track you mentioned was 16.
