My 6950 1GB card is beginning to artifact at stock speeds, so it's off to RMA-land for it.
Looking at AT's bench page for specs on some games I play (mostly RTS type) at my usual resolution, 1920 x 1200, and noticed something odd.
Civ V's bench results on AT show that for a single card solution, the GTX 560 Ti is the fastest card. It even outperforms a GTX 580 SLi setup.

Of course, it's just in that game at that particular resolution, but I play that game a LOT! And honestly, that 6950 absolutely sucked when the display was full of units.
So what is it about Civ V and the 560 Ti?
