  1. Hey all. I recently resubscribed to CoX with the new Rogue expansion and was very excited to play in Ultra Mode. I believe my computer is more than capable of running in Ultra Mode with most if not all settings maxed, but for some reason the game becomes choppy when I turn Ultra Mode on (SPECIFICALLY when I pump up Shadows.)

    Here are my specs, if that helps:

    Power Supply - 1200 Watt -- Thermaltake Toughpower W0156RU Power Supply Quad SLI Ready
    Processor - Intel® Core™ i7 950 Processor (4x 3.06GHz/8MB L3 Cache)
    Processor Cooling - XIGMATEK Dark Knight 120mm CPU Cooling Fan System H.D.T. (Heat-pipe direct touch) technology
    Motherboard - Asus P6T Deluxe V2 Intel X58 Chipset CrossFire and SLI Supported w/7.1 Sound, Triple-Channel DDR3, Dual Gb LAN, S-ATA Raid, USB 2.0, Three PCI-E MB
    Memory - 12 GB [2 GB X6] DDR3-1866 Triple Memory Module
    Video Card - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 295 1792MB w/DVI + TV Out Video
    Hard Drive - 1 TB HARD DRIVE [Serial-ATA-II, 3Gb, 7200 RPM, 16M Cache]
    2nd Hard Drive - 1 TB HARD DRIVE [Serial-ATA-II, 3Gb, 7200 RPM, 16M Cache]
    Sound Card - 3D Premium Surround Sound Onboard
    Network Card - Killer K1
    Operating System - Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit

    All of my video card drivers are up-to-date, too, as that was the first thing I guess I considered when I noticed Ultra Mode wasn't working. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you !

    (Again, the game works fine with other settings pumped up in Ultra Mode, like the water or whatever, and works perfectly fine with Ultra Mode turned off as well. It seems the shadows and ambient occulsion (sp?) make things worse...I think?)
