Look at the resolution they're playing When looking at graphs, it's important to understand how to interpret the results. Otherwise, the graphs are useless.

Wow,

Thats like Oblivion when it first came out.

My next upgrade is a ways off now. I was thinking about an 8800 around Christmas time. I guess I'll wait another 6 months or so after that.

Is lost coast one of those Vista only games? Can you run it no DX9? If you can run it on DX9, is it possible that Vista could be the problem?

Add that up and that means you are waiting a whole year for a gpu update

For sure in a year they will have some great GPUs on the market but you'll also be 1 yr closer to dead.

To bad all these are bad coded dx9 ports. We have to wait for a true dx10 game to come out like Crysis.
