At 38 FPS the ASUS GTX 570 DirectCU II can easily handle this game with everything set to maximum.  The ASUS GTX 570 places just a hair behind the ATI 6970 in this benchmark with less than 1% between them but trails the EVGA Classified by 16% and 20%.   The 6970 and this card continue to be neck and neck in both price and performance.
