system requirements to run this mod? Suggestons?

Hello all,

I've been watching this game for quite some time but haven't posted in the forums before.

I read a dev (ToeBall) say that he has a rig close to mine that runs 30 FPS and drops to 5 when near an explosion.

My rig:
Q6600 (Not overclocked)
8800 GTS 512
4GB 1066

Dropping to 5 FPS is something I would prefer to avoid, do you guys think I would be better served with a GTX 260 or a different upgrade?

Thanks, and I did read the other article about performance but it's been a while and I was hoping I could get a response here.

Also ToeBall, do you use nVidia software to OC your vid card or another program?

Thanks!

Nah, http://www.evga.com/precision/ to just OC a bit. Also we've been playing with the particle effects and are already getting better. Now I drop to about 10 fps when a mech goes up. Some times I don't drop below 12-15 if I'm not immediately near it.

Awesome, thanks for the reply. Mine is an EVGA too so that will work perfectly.

Never really thought my rig would be so slow on a game released before it was made. Go big or go home I guess.

Thanks for your help.
