Now that 85 is out with it's upgraded graphics as a response to the many concerns over gfx and fps, I assume (rightly or wrongly?) that the next updates will improve further on these 2 areas.
So my question is "should I look to upgrade my graphics card ?"
My current is a Radeon HD 5750 (reasonably low end, I know) and I was thinking to upgrade to Saphire HD 6950.
I ran build 85 last night with the 3.5's at Estoril - racing cars now, good job! - and in private testing I got a steady 58-63 fps with all max except crowd, road reflection and occlusion, then added 16 ai vehicles and got a drop of @ 15fps even when only 1/2 cars were in the frame. Fxaa and HDR were off. AA was 1 and sync was video. 1920 x 1080 res, 60hz refresh.
Shadows were low as this just kills everything.
My specs are in my profile, so any guidance is much appreciated.
