I remember getting bummed down at looking some cheap cards performances and thinking I had to invest serious amounts of cash, but then I realized that most of those tests used 1920x1080 as a base resolution with all the shit turned on. No wonder why it performs like crap then. My monitor only reaches 1366x768 anyway. That said, I'm not that fixed on getting 70-80fps, if I can play the game nicely at 24-30 I'm happy with it. I'm a console guy you see.
