Silent Hunter 4 is just a more microprocessor and graphics card intensive game than SH3. That isn't going to change. But the save game issues SH3 had are not present here, and that alone makes me prefer SH4. It's painful to put weeks into a career that vanishes without a trace because the program got cranky. It ruined my enjoyment of SH3 and I'm only now getting interested again after nine months.
Just think if they get the bright idea to implement DX10! I budget a PC rebuild about every 2-3 years, this next one is going to be expensive as I will be getting CPU/MOBO/GPU/PSU/MEM... yikes ...oh but get ready to see some nice used stuff on EBAY. Never OC'd!

This is my hobby and with a the amount of hours I spend on the PC I do not even want to deal with Frame Rate issues when it comes to flight sims. The rest of the games I could care less.
