IMO a single card of anything doesnt give enough performance at max settings.
I have 4 x 5870 and get 40>70 FPS everything maxed in London and 100>250FPS any where else. Though like his video with the 580 at max settings, I get the same occasional hiccup.

Im thinking of upgrading to 4 x 580 3GB cards and a 990X CPU shortly that will last me another 2 years until the next gen CPU's and GPUs are well established. I might hangout for the NV 68 or ATI 79 series depending if info starts leaking about the next gen launch in the next 6 weeks or not.

When 1C get SLI sorted and tweak the last bits of deep code Luthier talked about these cards should handle everything including DX11 when it comes out. The Next Gen GPUs on 28nm are a completely new architecture for both ATI and NV so it will take a good 6months to a year from release to properly sort drivers and have the highend cards on the market. Roadmaps for following gen after next one are 2013+ so expect then next Gen cards to go through mid cycle refresh like the 480>580 and 5870>6870 in late 2012.

P.S. you will get quite a few more FPS from overclocking that 920 to 4Ghz too.
