Are you using the Cat 4.3 drivers too?

I am using the new 4.3 drivers and have seen ZERO frame rate improvement.

I suspect the only thing different is the new terrain detail slider under graphics setup.
Set it back up to the max of 3 miles and i bet your fps gain will disappear.

Yep...using the new Cats. Cavalear is right...I didn't check the detail level.
