I have had the same problems. I am running 1024 textures on a AMD 3500+ with a 6600GT 256 MB card. Max refresh set at 60. Above 2k or so I get solid 60 FPS. Below that I get 15 to 20 Fps. Before I put another 1 GB of RAM (yesterday) into the MB I would get less than 5 FPS.

I believe its the huge ammount of computer power necessary for all the eye candy. If you dont have the ponies its unplayable.

I suppose I should add my V-sync has always been turned on, my antialiasing is set to 4x & my antistropic is set to application controlled, all these settings have been set up this way since I built this P/C five months ago.

I am also getting loss of framerates. I can be flyin at 12k and whenever I get an airfield in view, my framerate drops to the single digits. Normally, my framerates drop to the teens whenever I'm on the deck near trees, but at 12k, that shouldn't be. I normally get 50 if i'm looking at the horizon.

I have a Geforce4 Ti 4400 Overclocked.

I think it has something to do with airfields.

BTW, if I continue to look at the airfields, the framerates will go back to normally. It's only when I see the airfields at first. If I pan with my trackir, really fast, my view gets stuck for a second, once the airfield appears in view.
