Im using the 580sc 1.5gb, and the game runs slick like buttered glass.
smoother than I ever thought it would run, ever, to be honest. Last patch was a hell of a big deal.

Just fyi, there is as far as I know one video card manufacturer who makes a 570 with over 2 gb of vram: EVGA gtx570.

They make the "normal" models as well, with 1280 mb vram, but they have one model with more vram, might be an alternative to the more expensive 580.

I agree with you NedLynch, I don't intend to buy a very expensive card, as my 6850 runs the game ok.
It seems that the GPU is enough, but the VRAM is insuficient, as I can see in GPU-Z where it shows the VRAM Full, and another 800MB of "dynamical memory" allocated.

I think for those that can't afford a really expensive card, a 560,570,68xx,6950 with 2GB is ok.

Well, the thing is gtx560's normally come with 1gb vram, 570's with 1280gb vram.
I just had a quick look around and as I said the only manufacturer to make 2gb models of the 560 and 570 is EVGA and they have one model for each.

580's normally come with 2gb of vram, but there are a couple more brands that offer a 3gb model of the 580.

Wrong and wrong.

580s come with 1.5 GB or 3 GB of ram (never 2 GB, because of memory bus width) and here in Europe you can buy a 2.5 GB GTX 570 from Point of View, too. http://geizhals.at/653866

I would definatly recommend the GTX 580 with 3 GB for CloD.

Sorry, I was wrong with the 2gb 580, of course it's 1.5gb and yes the EVGA gtx570 has 2560mb of vram.

However, I would recommend a gtx580 with 3gb of vram as well........right now if money isn't an issue.......in a year or so when the 580s are second best. I do never buy the best out on the market, since after a relatively short time something better will come out, and the state of the art card I just bought drops dramatically in price.
If you buy "second best" you should always be in good shape and save quite a substantial amount of money. Still got some bills to pay and a family to feed. I have told the power company so many times already, power my house for free, I need a new video card, but they just don't want to listen
