People usually run The Black Death Track and post their numbers. Even a fast rig will have issues near certain big cities.

Hi

could you be please more specific when, for each map, and where have you low fps?

is it during a mission, which cities ?

because with you configuration you shouldn't..... :???:

i have Q9650 but before a e6600, geforce 8800 gt 512mo and 3 Gig.....and even with my old e6600 i never had low fps. the only moment i have a little is during big big missions over numeros flack, like 3-4 carriers + 2 detroyers + 30 planes fighting in both sides, allies and axis.......

so what you say seems strange.

anyway, put down resolution....if doing that low fps desapear, it means that you are cpu limitaded, if not, the problem is the CG but with a gtx295 it seems impossible.

check temperatures of cpu core (download "core temp" its free), fan speed for cpu an gpu.

It seems to do it over any big city with a lot of stuff on the ground also......

Didnt LandGeom=3 come in with 4.09? Sure theres a thing in the readme about reduced FPS if this is selected - try reducing to =1 or =2.

Might help? Although your rig looks like it should be able to handle it !!
