I did some FPS test last night using the built in fps counter (ctrl + f8).
-in game settings: high graphics, did not touch the sliders, all options turned on except Environment & fog;
-my system: opteron 170 (2 gigs), 7900 GTX, asrock dual sata mb, 2 gigs ddr 500 ram, audigy 2 ZS, 2 x Raptors HD 36 Gigs in RAID 0, win XP; latest drivers, nothing overclocked;
-card settings: 1280x960 @ 100 hz, AA at 2xQ, 4x AF,
-test setup, sunny day, in the middle of the ocean, no other ships around;
in the command room - locked at 50 fps, turning on or off vsync and/or EE has no impact;
on the bridge - without EE - locked on 50 fps;
- with EE - locked on 33 FPS; turning on or off vsync has no effect;
- considering the amount of eye candy in the game, I am happy with these results. When posting FPS results, it is important to also post all the variables so others can compare apples with apples.
