This is exactly what I was talking about....I kept telling people the GTX and GTS cards are not going to be able to handle games a year later in power with amazing frames everything maxed. However everyone tried to tell me that DX10 would change the way everything works. People tried to say the 8600GT may be a little expensive for the performance but "It's DX10 compatible" who the **** cares with frames that low on the Ultra!

Granted the drivers will get better but it's going to take a miracle almost for it to be excellent frames at even 1280x968 let alone 1600x1200...

As well as I told you the R600 wasn't going to beat out the G80 in DX10 with those benches showed before.

i agree, those frames have to be bull. surely it couldnt be that demanding.

Legit Reviews - ATI versus nVidia -- DirectX 10 Benchmarking - Image Quality & Test System

Not only nvidia performs better than ATI in this game, but it produces a better image quality than HD2900XT !!!

However, this is not the final build for DX10 version of this game. So, I assume that the final build might run better than the current build.
