Graphic card suggestions

Most of the performance problems in COH2 seem to be CPU related, not GPU related. I went from a GTX 570 to a GTX970, and there wasn't much of a performance change. The only thing that improved was being able to max out texture quality, since the lowly ~1.2gb on the 570 was getting maxed out constantly, and causing stuttering. Otherwise, the FPS was pretty much the same (since nothing else changed).

What are the rest of your specs? CPU/RAM/etc.?

Since you are all so interested in this tread, after its been resolved.

How about you guys help me with something that still plauges me?

I have a core i3 running at 3ghz clock speed
4 gigs of ddr3 ram running at 1333 mhz
gtx 750 ti with 1 gb of on board ram

Im fairly happy with the performance, its by no means great, but it runs on medium-ish settings just fine @ about 70 - 80 fps whilst idle in 1v1.

That being said.

I get stutter lag, the fps drops to zero for a second or two. This annoys the shit out of me.
My friend told me that his stutter was resolved by replacing his display card. But I still have stutter.

What should be my check list?

CoH2 doesn't even support SLI ?!

WoW ! Jeez. And here I was considering going crossfire r9 290s for crossfire... Glad I read your post.

r9 390 is the current meta card for money/performance

coh 2 is more cpu heavy though than gpu imo

CPU doesn't do much to really boost performance in CoH2. There's a bottleneck somewhere that isn't GPU related, but it isn't necessarily CPU.

Im gonna blow out my pc clean after work and run a disc defrag, see if that helps

if you have windows 7 or later (and probably vista) windows auto defrags so it's not going to do anything.

I did a diskchk. and it DID do something. It screwed up my pc. Open coh2.AMD catalyst opens, pc freezes. open any exe, pc freezes. Re doing windows today.

stutter has nothing to do with the hdd unless the files where loaded into ram damaged. because all games are played in ram.

the stutter is most prob the ram. coh 2 is ram hungry up to 14gigs lol
