my specs are i5 2500k, 8gb ram and a 7950 3gb reference model... im playing on a 1366x768 resolution.. i've just came back from a long hiatus from november 2012. is this game already optimized? on what settings and FPS will i get if I play this on 1080p? thanks for taking time reading my thread

I have an i5-2320 3.0Ghz and a 7750 HD and i play on max settings at 1080p so you can easily max it at that res considering your PC is much beefier than mine. I get 45 fps on max btw. You would probably get around 70 in 720p and 60 in 1080p.

MWO is not a big truck...


But, in all seriousness. This shows a pretty fundamental misunderstanding of 'cores.' They are not additional cylinders all pushing on the same drive shaft. It's more like multiple trucks assigned to the same task. Sometimes you have enough trucks to get the job done, and more trucks just get in the way. To really strain this analogy, what if it's the manufacturing facility (video card) or loading docks (RAM) that is the bottle neck?

Perhaps this should be programmed in, however this has always been the trouble with PC games, the hardware is pretty variable. It sometimes means figuring out how these things run on YOUR hardware. Therefore, if specifying only 4 cores fixes an issue, and you know that, consider yourself lucky.

I would think with that much power you would easily get a steady 60fps. I'm running an i5 2500k with 8GB system memory and a HD 6850 at 1280x720 (720p) and I'm getting a steady 60fps at medium settings. One person I run with has a HD 7950 with an i7 ivy bridge CPU and he plays on max settings with no slowdown. Try different settings out and see what works and make sure your video drivers are up to date as well. Sometimes you can forget about that.

im currently on high settings on my native res. and im still dipping to 35 FPS on a moshpit fight... i'll try overclicking the **** out of my CPU and GPU to get some gains

Every thing set to maximum settings at 1080p.
Also why are you using a ****** resolution of 1366x768?

… be sure to turn post-possessing and anti-aliasing off.

Where does this advice come from? AFAICT, the only anti-aliasing in the game is Subpixel Morphological Anti-Aliasing 2Tx, which is very lightweight, and setting post-possessing to mearly high get one ~50% of the performance boost of setting it low.

It's way more useful to set shadows to medium, shading to high, and particles to low, if you can do without most of the smoke effects, or medium if you like them, as I do.
