Irathi. Recently created a new OC profile after managing to figure out how to turn the stock cooler to 11 (basically trying to just keep it under 62C), at 54c @ 4.3 under load I got braver basically. It aims to 4.51. Plan on giving it a proper test tonight. With this config. [Rendering] GraphicsQuality=2 TextureQuality=1 ShadowQuality=1 RenderDistance=1500.000000 Gamma=0.490000 MaximumFPS=80 UseLod0a=0 OverallQuality=-1 LightingQuality=3 EffectsQuality=3 TerrainQuality=3 FloraQuality=1 ModelQuality=2 VerticalFOV=74 ParticleLOD=2 ParticleDistanceScale=0.650000 FogShadowsEnable=0 MotionBlur=0 VSync=0 GpuPhysics=1 My hope is that I can get to a few large battles and see whether or not this kicks it out the 20'ies completely. I am intrigued to test this '4.5 and above' sweetspot hypothesis that has been flying around. Specs AMD Fx 8350 @ 4.51 - lolstockcooling111!!! Asus M5A78L-M LX V2# EVGA 650GTX SC @ 1.2 8 gig DDR3 1333 now slightly OC'ed at 733
i have a rule of thumb for cpu and fps- For ivy bridge and sandybridge-e, multiply the amount of gigahertz by 10 and you have the fps in large fights. ie, 4.4ghz 3770k - 44 fps
