Ok here is an overview of my system:

enermax 600watt noisetaker
1.5 gb corsair xms memory
x2 3800
7800gtx 256

here is my problem - (copy and pasted from the mtw2 official forums)

Heres my settings. Large unit settings, and everything else medium, despite auto detect saying high.

Now when i go into battle i get major lag sometimes, and it just makes me hate the game and not want to play. It happens real bad on sieges, i even tried all settings to low, but that had no effect what so ever. everyting is just jumpy and ugly.

Intitially i had a campaign with all settings high and huge units, re started campaign after bad lag, thought maybe my pc couldnt handle huge units afterall, but after going to large settings and seeing the same thing happen i now know its not the pc, but a performance issue within MTW2 or its a bug.

SO is anyone else my position, where they have a realy good rig, auto detect puts your settings to high but then the game runs like @#%$?
 
I know it's been said a lot in other threads, but turn the shadows off. They don't really offer a visual improvement and turning them off gives quite a massive increase in performance.
