Just Cause 2

We like this game a lot. Keeping things comparable, NVIDIA-specific features such as the Bokeh filter and GPU water rendering are turned off.

The first title in which the GTX 590 gains some sort of parity with the Radeons is Just Cause 2.

You know, if enthusiasts had been privy to the fact that the GTX 590 barely matches two Radeon HD 6950 2GB cards in CrossFire - a couple of boards that cost Ā£410 in total - the new champ's arrival may not have been so eagerly anticipated.
