I feel for the people getting the frame rate problems! I am running a pretty weak Cpu(intel g860) compared to my Gpu(gtx 670ftw) and my frame rate drops pretty bad if I put the view distance above 2500. To be honest its actually not to bad when I keep it at that, I can play on high and it moves from 27-40 fps. I have my i5 4670k coming on fiday so hopefully I see a bit of a difference to the game!
