Video Card for Company of Heroes 2?

Screen resolution and rest of the system specs, particularly CPU, would be helpful. More importantly, what is your budget and what settings/fps do you want to play at? For instance, ultra at 60 fps or low at 144 fps?
 
Yes, you will need a video card.

Just ran this with my setup, settings on "High", vsync off.

Wow, you picked pretty much the most horribly optimized game out there, didn't you ?? Don't expect great FPS with anything. Even a Titan can't average 60fps on that game. Add to that the game will NEVER support SLI/CF and you have a lot of surprised and unhappy gamers who bought it.
 
Yep, it's one the worst scaling/optimized games out there. I tried comparing my 7870 Tahiti OC results with the benchmark and I would get nearly the same results running 800/1000 as I would running 1200/1500 with the settings maxed at 1280x1024 resolution and an i7 4770k @ 4.2GHz 🙄
 
The joke usta be .. 'Well ya, but can it run Crysis ??"

It's now "But can it run CoH2 ?"

Good news is, its playable on a 6950 or a GTX570. Anything less than that and I'd question how much fun can be had.
 
Could it be optimized more? Yeah sure why not. Is there anything which obligates you to run at the highest possible ultra settings? No. Lower a few things. The game looks no different. Seriously, it doesn't.

Besides which, this isn't a first person shooter. A framerate discrepancy in Crysis 3 would be noticeable, but it really isn't super annoying in CoH2. You scroll about the screen similar to SC2 and that's where the lag usually happens. Sometimes. Then again you can lower a few settings. It isn't a big deal really. This is not the type of game where having a fluid and constant 60 fps is required for immersion - the game generally plays fine even if the framerate dips a bit.

As far as the OP's question goes, it is not answerable without more details. From what I recall CPU speed matters in CoH2. Resolution obviously makes a difference. We have no information to give a meaningful response.

IMO its yalls fault, cuz why would you even run a game like that if you already have BF4 and COD2. MW2 black ops 2 whatever it is
 
I get about the same as OCGuy on Maximum with AA, strangely turning things down doesn't change performance much.

Works fine at that FPS.
