    Yeah I am getting 55 to 60 fps but as soon as I crank up the AA and shadows (even on low) it drops quite a bit. I always make sure my drivers are upto date. Also I guess as its a new game, they will do some performance tweaks here and there, same with future drivers.

    Is It Worth Me Upgrading My Graphics Card ?

    Also is there any gpu around £100 or less that would be a big improvment on my 4870 ? If not, I will lay off buying a gpu for a while.
