Performance TC

Hi!

I have 1.2 installed, latest drivers and all that... also I do have a config that should run SH5 without ANY problems:

AMD Phenom II X4, 4 Gig Corsair Dominator RAM, ATI HD5770, lots of Discspace, Win7 64 Bit.

I had some issues with particle effects. That became better after 1.2 especially the water around the boat. Fire from burning enemy ships does drop frames below ten when I go close with the camera and that is very annoying already...

BUT:

If I am on the map (!) and got to TC above 512, I drop down to below 5 frames and that is definitly unplayable. Whenever I crash into something, there is no time to react, as the game is not dropping back to TC 1 by pressing Shift and "-"... at least not by the first try. Sometimes I have to hammer on the button for seconds (5-10) and then anything is too late (hello, Savegame!). Does anyone has the same? It ruins the game for me completly!!!

I have already installed Catalyst 10.5 without any success. I have completly disabled shadows, but it didn't help a bit.

This is really a pain!
