Still no hope of improving framerate?

Put the AA mode into performance .

I find that having Shadows on max is a real FPS killer. I think overall frames are better inside the sub for me.

Impreved FPS nad graohics effects are visible only for single-core processer users.

The biggest fps killer is VSync. Turn it off already, it did wonders in my case.

What effect does window mode have?
Some have found that setting affinity to a different level helps.
I use AlacrityPC to turn off unneeded processes which helps.
Some have found that using only one processor helps.
I set all enhancements to off and then restarted them one by one. This helped me identify problems.
If window7, you really need 4Gb of RAM
I also use 4Gb of ReadyBooste.
As noted, turning off AA, shadows, and realistic sound travel helps.
If none of this works, play SH3; it is a better game anyway. I suggest SH3GWX with SH3CMDR

Ewww, I couldnt imagine going back to SH3 GWX after this game, would be like trading in my LCD for a CRT.....

My games FPS has improved immensely after 1.2. Mind you I know how to manage a PC, keep the background apps to a minimum and leave AA off and shadows at half...
