Okay at these settings it stuttered, farted and was almost unplayable(except over water), but i can certainly see that once it's properley optimised it will be an absolutley bloody awesome sim. I plan on updating my gpu to either a 480GTX or a 570GTX today, just not sure if 1536MB ram on a 480 is better than the 1280MB on the 570 for this sim?

Good for you, there are plenty of threads for you to post your impressions or ask system spec questions in already...

Go for the 580GTX, its worth it believe me. The 480gtx = 570gtx in performance, the 570's vram is clocked alot higher which makes up for the discrepency, but like said its worth it to get a 580, if not then a 570 is better than a 480.
If I was you, I would go for 1 580 or two 560ti in sli.
