Firstly, this is not a brag thread, and I'm not prepared to indulge any discredit towards AMD's Bulldozer, particularly their flagship CPU - the 8150. (It only cost me £106 after cash back, and is comparable to an i5 2500K) I have the following specification, and was looking for a suitable configuration for the in-game graphics settings: AMD FX-8150 Black Edition 4.00GHz | Kingston HyperX Genesis 16GB DDR3 1600MHz | EVGA GeForce GTX 670 2048MB GDDR5 | Microsoft Windows 7 Professional 64-bit I understand the game is particularly demanding, largely due to poor optimization. It's also common knowledge that people with enthusiast-level hardware experience notably poor performance on occasion. Your sincere help would be greatly appreciated.
