How much VRAM do you have on your card and in what resolution do you run it? Some say that 1,5GB VRAM for 1920x1200 (or 1080) just isn't enough. I've read that VRAM usage on that resolution wants to go up to about 1,7GB. ...But I didn't test it myself and its only what I read. Normally you would assume that a 580GTX would be more than enough for the job. It's just a very powerful card for today's standards.

I myself run building amount on high instead of unlimited because it makes a noticeable difference in performance. The visuals are for me acceptable this way. Only in London I see Lego blocks far away. Above Dover (as in your screenshot) I don't get any Lego blocks when building amount is on high.
