I have severe framerate problems when my battles hit about 5000-7000 men, I would have thought with the age of the game a modern machine would run it no problems.
Spec's
AMD64 5000+ x2 AM2
2048MB DDR2
200GB SATA
SLI 7900GSx2
Audigy 4
all latest drivers available, defraged, 62% free space.

I have all settings on max, huge units and 1024x768 res.
Should It run no probs or is there anything I can do to improve the fps without losing quality ?
Any advice would be much appreciated.
