MW3 is the newest game i have, and it runs that well also. hope this helps. don't let the driver thing worry you if you like the card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stock GTX 480 is about equal in terms of performance as the GTX 570. But the GTX 480 pulls a lot of juice from your Power supply than even a 580. And it runs pretty damn hot.
