30FPS on a 580 means unplayable for everyone else on those settings, since thats a damned expensive card.

QFT

At the very beginning when your family is escaping lothering I was getting 10FPS with my GTX 470 on the 267.24 drivers, if you run a quick search on the net you will see many people had terrible FPS, the only way to get playable FPS was to use a modded inf with the GTX 550 Ti drivers 267.59, I believe other later drivers only available to certain GPU's had similar effect, but this one was the one everyone seemed to recommend, after switching to those my FPS jumped from 10 to 15-17 FPS, and with the current 270.51 its 20-23FPS at the very beginning.

This is with everything maxed out, with the texture pack installed and DX11 enabled at 1920x1200.

Tried with the 267.24, went to about 12FPS then, as far as the 20-23FPS, I've heard that it's higher in most other places, so like playing Crysis maxed, if not ill kill the AA.

I haven't, but steam and some steam games have been "crashing" on exit. Or at least, windows thinks they crashed and gives me a little error message. They seem to exit just fine to me though lol

I think that happened even before the driver update though.
