Yes, I can see, thank you. Does the normal green-textured area make a square field around the player if viewed from a higher altitude?

S!

Yes, the "view range" of high resolution is a big square around you. It could be bypassed maybe with a bit heavier fog/haze as you do not spot a plane over coast of France from Dover anyway, at least in the game.

Thanks for testing! I hoped I get this square only because I run the game on low or sometimes med landscape details settings. I hoped it should disappear on high settings.

Let's hope the new patch will address these issues as well. But at least no 3 stripes of death anymore!

You are killing me Flanker, I am just waiting for the non-reference versions to start showing up before I purchase one.

I'm just waiting for Nvidia to come out with their cards before picking between that or the AMD card.

I wanted a non-reference one too but small supply of cards only here so had to take what I could. I am happy with it and a lot. As of the nVidia..I am interested in it too, but I am sure it will be a lot more expensive than AMD. At least there was over 150€ difference here between 6970HD and 580GTX so was not worth it...But anyway..great to see new tech coming

Even if it turns out that the AMD 7XXX card is the better one, Nvidia releasing their new flagship product can only help pricing. AMD usually drops their prices a little if a new Nvidia card has comparable specs and performance, at a similar price.

I was contemplating getting a 7970 myself but have decided to wait a bit. If the games graphics engine has been optimized I hope SLI/X-Fire is fixed. I might get another GTX570 if that's the case. If Kepler is out by that time I 'll weigh that one in as well.

Priller, I run the 2500K at stock speeds, so it might be this 3.3-3.4GHz. Kepler seems to be a nice thingy, but remains to be seen. And AMD is for sure planning for a refresh before that Interesting times!

BigC..I am sure that when Luthier's team get the GFX engine working with proper SLI/CrossFire an another 570GTX will do just fine.
