Should Catalyst AI be on or off? I'm a little confused as to what it actually does, it sounds good though.

My system is a i7-930 @4ghz with 12gb ram.
Holy hell.

Quick question: does upgrading from 4 GB RAM to 8 GB make a significant difference in FPS? Here are my specs:

 

AMD Phenom II X6 3.2 GHz

ATI Radeon 6870 1GB

4 GB DDR3 Corsair

7200 RPM HDD

750 Watt PSU

 

Thanks in advance for any advice offered.

Wait for Beta 5 before contemplating performance as opposed to necessary upgrades. Present build running like a Fly on Crack on my rig which is probably average - good at today's standards.

Upgraded to a EVGA GTX570 SC from a GTX285 and noticed a big improvement! Beta 4 improved my FPS as well; getting over 100FPS over medium water and 50FPS in town. Watching my TRACK is a constant 60FPS. It was damn near unplayable in combat with the GTX285 on the first couple betas. Can't wait for TrackIR to get their sh*t together so I can use it. So I would say the best way to improve FPS is to dump that 2 year old or older vid card and wait for the final release. I am not a big fan of SLI as I don't believe anyone should have to shell out twice the amount just to make things work; also not to mention the EXTRA power requirements--what a JOKE.

Are you running a 64 bit operating system? If yes, then your operating system can use the increased memory.

 

As to whether a memory upgrade will increase your FPS, that depends on many other factors regarding your current PC.

Thanks for the reply WarriorX.

 

I am running Win 7 64-bit so yes, my operating system will be able to use the extra memory.

 

Is there a way to display a FPS counter in-game?

 

Also, a random memory question for anyone who might have encountered this issue before: I originally had 8 GB of DDR 3 Corsair memory installed in my system. However, I purchased 4 GB of memory at a later date and, while it was still Corsair, the timings of the newer set of memory were different that the older 4 GB of memory. That said, I started to experience random BSOD's which occured while working within Win 7 at any time. The BSOD's had the listed message of "Memory Management Error." As a result, I tested all 8 GB of memory with memtest86+ and everything checked out fine after 24 hours of testing. However, when I removed the newer set of memory, my BSOD's went away entirely (2 months now when it was a daily occurance before).

 

So, in light of my listed history, my question is does mixing two sets of DDR 3 memory with different timings often lead to system instability? If so, is there a way to counteract this problem?

 

Thanks for the help!

Pressing this combo another time brings up more info.

Personal Wish List: A6 Intruder, Vietnam theater, decent ATC module, better VR performance!

Siefex, yeah mixing different spec RAM is a bit of a no no. Sometimes it works out and all is good with the world, but often it can be a fierce beast and turn on you when you are not looking.

I don't test for bugs, but when I do I do it in production.

Umm, does that mean it's running nicely? I've seen a lot of crackheads and they don't run too quick. And then, you know, flys...they're fast, I guess...for their size.:helpsmilie:

Yes - It's ticking over quite nicely indeed :)

Looking at the beta5 work list there has been a massive amount of work done. Beta4 runs like a fly on crack on my current system, would be cool to see what the difference is.

Relevant data was collected by an expert named "Dave Chappelle". Apparently crack heads are very athletic at 3am. Research footage follows:

sounds like driver issue to me uninstall all and restart then install ..10.6 is good i have a 4870x2 was getting 12k on e6750 @ 3.00ghz then went back to ccc10.6 back to 15k now and A10C is ok .

I have yet to hear that SLI is of any benefit with this sim. Opinions?

 

Search forums i posted on this many times. Going OT but it does help on my 260's in SLI unless my older cpu is bottlenecking qx6700 3.6ghz.

 

Gonna get a 2600k setup soon and I'll post results in hardware forum with or without SLI benches.

Please try the missions I just created HERE. In my humble opinion they are a masterpiece in modern chaos. They're the same, but one is at night (and looks awesome!) Post your average FPS (CTRL + Pause twice).

 

Mission Overview:

You're sitting on the runway. There are several friendly helos orbiting the runway with manpads, ZSUs, and SAs firing at them. A flight of A10s and AH64s are taking the AAA out. 50 MLRSs from each side are trading punches in front of you. And there's a gunbattle going on to your left. All your FPS are belong to us.
