Hey there,
CoH2 is the most demanding/poorly-optimized game that I own. I need a new GPU but no idea what to get.
If you could take a minute to reply I'd really appreciate it.
I read some reviews/benchmarks for CoH2 but they were outdated, they certainly won't include relevant info from the last few patches performance wise - Plus, some say CoH2 favors nvidia cards. I don't know about that.
So, let's ask the community themselves.
If you'd like to, please post:
1. Your PC specs.
Here are mine: CPU i5 3570k (stock 3.4ghz, OC up to 4.2ghz) + 240gb SSD + 16gb DDR3
2. Do you run the game at 1080p ? Medium? High? Highest settings?
3. Any issues? Can it handle 2v2/3v3/4v4?
I'd be really thankful for any helpful replies guys.
Cheers,
Nick
There is almost no PC under $2500 that will be able to run this game well (the graphic card taking around $600-$1000 of that total)
I bought a Geforce 980 GTX ($600) for CoH2 (second best card at the time under the GTX 980 TITAN ($1000), with my i7 3770k, 16 gbs of RAM and the game rapes your PC. I will have 80 FPS during the start but once the game continues this poorly-optimized game will bring me down to roughly 30-40 FPS.
While BF4 or Star wars Battle Front i'm running at 150-180 FPS.
I will say though. RAM is one of the most important performance things with this game, 8 gbs of RAM will NOT cut it, you need at least 12-16 (more is better) to run smoothly. CoH2 takes up around 8gbs of ram itself without anything running in the background.
OH and i'm MAXED on everything (I only turn off vsync)
