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.
yeahh only over London
the Dover photo is from another guy not mine
on high settings
if i set it to ultimate over London the lego dissapears most of them at least
the gtx 580 that i have is 1.5 vram
its an excellent card and i don't need to waste more money to see more performance for a not optimised sim
