ok  in the tower in AH3 beta  I get 8 fps---if I up on a ship dual 5in guns I have seen 24fps-in a manned 37mm I have seen 15 to 24 fps--in a tank in the woods 8 to 10 fps  it's real jittery and tank is hard to control and all this is with all eye candy turn off all sliders all the way down. I can't afford a new computer-or to even to build one even if I knew how. and I dang sure don't want to quit this game. I get bored just watching tv. what am I supposed to do? what do you suggest I do.

Hi lunatic,

Well we just can't allow you to be bored watching TV, so if you will PM me your mailing address I'll send you 1 of my surplus vid cards for free that should give you better performance than the 1 you currently have.

The vid card I'll send you is an EVGA GTX 670 FTW vid card w\ 2Gb GDDR5 mem. This is 1 of the 1st gen Nvidia Kepler GPU powered vid cards using Nvidia's GPU Boost 1.0 that is factory OC'd on GPU & mem from EVGA. This is the vid card that I bought when I built the current box in my sig some 4 yrs ago & is in excellent condition. It will be packaged in it's original boxing w\ all the stuff that came w\ it. If you want it then PM me & let me know.

I need to also clean out my closet as well so consider this a mutual gesture. Rather give it to someone who can use it than to just throw it away.

From discussions in AH2 I think there may be a fair number of folks who will need video card upgrades but can't afford the latest and greatest. If it's not a rule violation can someone post suggestions for cards that will run AH3 with decent frame rates with minimal graphic setting such as everything disabled but detail?

I have a GeForce GTX 750 Ti (costs maybe about $130 these days) running on a machine with an old i5-2400 CPU.  It gives me about 60 fps in AH3 beta.  Seems totally fine to me.

I've tried it with a GTX 950 ($140 card) as well that also gives about 60 fps in AH3 beta.
