I've had nothing but success with my MSI GTX 560 TI. It wasn't that expensive $300 on ebay. March 2011. I've never had any of the crashes or freezes. I have 12 gigs of corsair ddr3 ram and I think that helps. Mother board is an Asus P6T deluxe version 1

Same here, I have the EVGA GTX 560 Ti 2gb card and the sim has been solid for me.

It does not help! :) Your RAM is big enough, when you use 6gb in current systems (except you are using ram disk for something).

What I did was watch all the reviews on everything on youtube.. Linus on tech types on NCIX in Vancouver mainly and others. I didn't want to bother with any water cooling that was the main thing. Then bought all of my stuff after about two months of mulling everything over. If you want detailed reviews on products I would go to NCIX tech tips with Linus on youtube.

Oooooooh noooooo, not this guy!!! I also saw couple of reviews about several topics. He is agood presenter and some information is quite good. But this guy often advertises something and in another episode he completely say the other way.

Had seen reviews about gfx cards, monitors and recently some keyboards. Interesting, but it is not, what I would make my decisions on. ;)

I mean: This guy has to serve the main market and this is casual playing modern warfare, bf3 and other shooter guys and this is clearly not, what I want to know, especially in core hardware like gfx cards and cpu, etc.

I rely on professionals. In monitors for example on tests from prad.de.

Well I got very lucky then because I haven't had any trouble with this game. It must be my genius :)

Low resolution? Graphics details lowered? You can have success with every card with vram bigger than 2! Again: clod is not about graphics. It is about vram and a balanced system with good cpu and suitable gpu.

A subjective answer like "my system runs it great" is not sufficient. Perhaps you do not see, what others do? ;) Some guys also say, that their gtx 295 runs great in a certain game. When I came to them to test, the microstutters were terrible. They do not see it! So this is subjective.

FWIW I recently bought the 660SC (super clocked) and i can now run BF3 at 1920x1080 on ULTRA settings with an avg fps of 45-60. i did a quick test with the black trk and it was very smooth as before with my amd 6790 it would stutter :(

You can get the 660sc for $230 at microcenter and if they still have the deal going you get assassins creed 3 or borderlands 2 when you buy any 6 series card :) Here are some nice benchs to help put things in perspective.

S!

I have good overall performances with maximum settings but without shadows...
Shadows for me are a fps killer...
I have a Q6600@3.0mhz 4gbDDR3@1333 GTX660ti Jetstream 2gb and i run the game @1900x1200

maybe shadows are more CPU dependent? who knows?

Ciao!

You can get 45-60 fps with every new card on ultra settings. It depends on your resolution, which you do not mention. Is it ultra preset or custom made up to every ultra setting? Is it with aa, fxaa, msaa or what? You haven't mention a lot of things to come to your ultra fps rate. In real ultra and with everything on highest setting and with a res of 1080p, your card cannot reach that. The only cards who can reach this iste 680 overclocked and the 7970 ghz edition (alsi overclocjed).

So this is misleading. It also depends on multiplayer or singleplayer fps. They are also different. So, your statements with your 660sc is obsolete! Sorry! ;)
