CoH and WiC major slowdown!

[Fry750]

Hello all.
I understand that the two games are system intensive but was it is that is actually being tested too much thus causing the frame drops? GPU, CPU?
Thanks

Since the recent CoH patch (the 1.7GB one with Opposing Fronts data) there has been noticable performance drops for a lot of people, including me and also frequent crashes.
But my WiC runs fine.

Well, i was playing the demo, E6600 at stock, 8800GT and 2GB RAM and all of sudden it started chugging. Something must've happened
