This is rather frustrating...

Not just you.

Hell, my EVGA GTX580 3GB still can't handle the game on max settings even at 30FPS (not including Ambient Occlusion either), so I don't buy that anyone is taking full advantage of the game's graphics.

I find that odd, I run an ATI6870XFX@1080p and run fine @max settings (I do turn off dust because I feel it makes the game look worse imo)
