Hi,
Same advice as written earlier, I would keep what you have and see what Oleg's " Storm of War " will need in a few months when it is released. I recommend saving your money for those coming upgrades.
Meanwhile, there are a bunch of optimizations that you can make until then-free of cost. Have you studied the multi core topics recently posted in this forum? Altogether, there are several very useful topics posted on the same ( most recent ) page of the registry.
So that you know what to expect, I run a measly dual core CPU and a dual core GPU. The Frames Per Second used to be about 12 to 35. Now my FPS is 20 - 100 FPS. Only the atomic bomb blast and many planes spawning at the same time causes a stutter.
Yes, you can get the one thread application called IL-2 to run in multi thread. Yes, you can get IL-2 to go from running in the first core to running in the core of your choosing, even all cores. Quad core guys should run IL-2 in a core by itself-no other programs in that core, say core #4, as an example. I have dual core and run IL-2 just fine in both cores.
All the information is at your favorite IL-2 website: All Aircraft Arcade.
