Getting about 40 fps with everything on ultra
Similar to Trig's set up

win7 x64
i7 920
12gb ram
ATi 6970

not got it running on SSD because i didn't want cache downloads on there too. will sort that at some point, see if it makes a difference to loading times.

Ahh, yeah I got a trio of SSD drives as well, never really noticed the difference in load times before but I've been sat waiting for the counter while Terrys been moaning about still waiting for the level to load...

Running:

Win7 x64 Pro SP1
Intel i7 Sandybridge 2.8g @ 4.7g
Ati XFX 6870 Black Edition Crossfire
OCZ Agility 2 x 60g in RAID 0
Creative SB Fatality Titanium

Resolution 1680 x 1050 that's the max of my 22" Samunsung

All game settings @ Ultra
2xMss AA
SABO

Never had it drop below 80 FPS on any map averages around the 100 FPS mark. I'm more interested in the minimum FPS rather than the max, hence the Crossfire setup.
