BF3 SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
do you think crossfire 6850′s can run this good? or just one 6950?
I think you’ll be able to run it decently with a 6850. I got a 6870 and don’t plan to upgrade just yet.
Do you think a AMD 6770 and/or a AMD 6775 can play battlefield at a decent FRames per second and medium graphics
hey DAN look don,t see the requirements i have very old Card ATI Radeon 5670 1 GB and in this card it runs perfectly at advanced setting so rather if u have money to perchase a 6770 then just Buy it but i can tell u the result will be the same and the game will run perfectly also.
Look Dan, with a AMD HD 6770 you will able to play it, but only if you overclock the card. I’m able to play in a range of 30-45 fps with the settings in ultra, with the clock speed at 850 MHz, if you want to reach the 60, you can try ether play with the medium settings, or set a higher clock speed, another thing, I don’t know if all the versions of the AMD HD 6770 work in the same way, but I can tell you that the XFX AMD HD 6770 (this one http://goo.gl/9uiH4), work just fine.
PS: I used the ATI Tray Tools to do the overclocking, witch is not a product of AMD or ATI.
Also, the score of my card in windows performance evaluation before the overclocking was of 6.4 and after the overclocking go up to to 7.3
My system:
CPU
AMD Phenom II X6 1065T @2.9GHz
Thuban 45nm Technology
RAM
8.00 GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 669MHz (9-9-9-24)
Graphics
DTV265 (1366×768@75Hz)
AMD Radeon HD 6700 Series (XFX Pine Group)
Yes, I have a 6100 CPU, which as you would probably know is 6 core, and I run at 60FPS while recording.
Sorry, misread the message. I am pretty sure that it can, I have 6870 and run at 70 – 90 on high. Although this GPU is overclocked. I have the Super Overclocked 6870 (Retail Overclocking)
no it is not good enough most setting (all) will have to be on low
Hey Dan, any card above ATI/AMD Radeon 3xxx series will do, only 6xxx series will d it exellently. I got an AMD Radeon HD 2600 pro 128bits, 512mb, shader 4.1, internal clock 1.3GHz, but still it doesnt run Battlefield3
Will an AMD Athlon(tm) II X2 220 Processor 2.80 GHz and a 4 GB RAM be able to handle BF3 at decent settings?
What the diffrerent between amd radeon hd 6770 and ati radeon 6950 please reply
Do you think dual 5770′s will be enough to run it at fairly high specs? I can run everything else maxed out
I have one 5770 and can run this with everything maxed and with 2x AA
no
Hi Guys, hoping you can help me out with this. I am planning to buy this specs ( AMD LLANO A6-3500 2.1Ghz
MSI A75MA-G55 A75 FM1 APU
Kingston 4g DDR3 1333
Sapphire HD6770 1GB DDR5 128) hope it would run on medium or high res without any problem..
Hey! Dont waste your money in buying such an expensive cards. To run bf3 with high or maxed out graphics, you just need to have a quad-core or a triple core would work as well,with a speedy card(NOT TOO MUCH SPEEDY, OT IS ONLY A WASTE OF MONEY. DONT RELY ON SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS, THEY ARE NOT ALWAYS TRUE.) I have an AMD Phenom X3(Tri-core)@2.70GHz, 6gb of ram, AMD RADEON HD 6770(2GB),and windows 7 64-bit. I run bf3 on high graphics(not maxed),with dx11 mode, and 1600×900 resolution. It gives me 25+ FPS.
Lol my PC Hp (m9517c) has a and quad core 2.2 GHz 8 gigs of ddr2 OEM, I added 650 watt power supply and a palit gtx 460 2GB of ram and it plays Bf3 maxed out in 3D at 25 1280×720 60 plus at 1080p my pc’s release date was Dec 2008 is she still bangs hard
Hello, I just saw the requirements and I am asking:
I have this specs:
Saphire Radeon HD 6850 2 GB
AMD FX 4100 3,6 GHz
Crosair RAM 16 GB 1600MHz
Seagate 500GB HDD
Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit
Adata 550 W
DX 11
I can play with this BFBC2 on ultra with 80+ fps.
Can I run BF3 on Ultra with over 40+ fps?
Reply me soon…!
dude you should consider overclocking your cpu , your gpu bottlebeck your cpu. you need more cpu power to pump this card.
I’m not huge on PC jargon. But simply, will this PC http://www.msy.com.au/product.jsp?productId=8340 .. run this game. thanks would be a big help
well if your ignorant to computers and your looking at buying current generation games whether for yourself or for others, or even if you just want to get buy in basic society, i suggest you take a class to learn more about computers.
Considering there are only 7 parts to a Pc and that hardware is stupidly simple in comparison to software, you should learn the basics.
rather then asking for a fish, take some time and learn how to fish.
technology is constantly moving forward so having the basics will help in buying the next computer in 5 years, the fundamental parts are the same for everything, a phone has a processor and ram and some form of hard drive.
Probably, but not at full settings. Also, Erik, you don’t have to be a dick to people asking for help. Darcy was upfront with her inexperience with computers and asked a simple question.
Darcy, can’t help I’m sorry to say….. by the by, just ignore Erik, he’s plainly one of those socially limited idiots who does all his big talking on line. The words ‘needle’, and ‘d*ck’ come to mind.
Would a nVidia GeForceâ„¢ GT 520M w/1GB GDDR3 w/Optimus Switching Graphics Technology, 8GB DDR3/1333 Dual Channel Memory and a 3.1 Ghz i5 processor, Run the game good estimate my frame rate on the settings and reply soon plz
your graphics card is not good enough for high, ultra or even medium settings.
I got a GT540m and It can’t playBF3 on absolutly lowest settings possible at resolution 1366×768. No you can not play with that gpu.
AMD Radeon HD7750 2048 ( 2 GB )
AMD Athlon II x2 260 3.2 GHz
Corsair Vengeance 8 GB 1600 MHz
How good will this run?
It should run like 50Fps on medium, 40 on high and 30 on ultra.
I have a AMD HD 6850. AND IT WORKS PRETTY GOOD. BUT IF I PLAY CLOSE QUARTERS MEATGRINDER 64 PLAYER KILL FEST , MY PC SLOWS DOWN , WAY DOWN WHEN ALL THE ACTION AND GRENADES AND SHIT FLYING. I THINK IT IS THE CARD. I LOWERED IT TO LOWEST VIDEO SETTINGS IN THE GAME, IT HELPED BUT IT STILL DOES IT. BUT OTHER THAN TAT AND IN A NORMAL GAME I CAN PLAY ON ULTRA
I run it great on Ultra on a 6770!
It recommends one 6850.. so of course 2 will work fine.. you don’t even need 1 for it to work
I have the 6750 and plan on getting a 2nd one to run in crossfire
2 6850s or 1 6950 will work fine but I’d recommend the 2 6850s
minimum and recommend requirements yeah sure you could run one card but if you want to get the most out of your BF3 MP experience and want everything on ultra high id recommend a way better card
It says Graphics card: DirectX 11 Nvidia or AMD ATI card so I dont see where you got “It recommends one 6850″ from????
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYffbNvQgyQ
as you can see cheap things are always terrible IMO
The bit where it recomends the graphics •Graphics card: DirectX 11 Nvidia or AMD ATI card, GeForce GTX 460, Radeon Radeon HD 6850
Whichever card has the higher minimum FPS is better than the one with the higher average FPS, of course if it does both GO FOR IT (but it would probably cost a lot) , sometimes running a single graphics card is better than running SLI or CrossFire
yea since some games dont support crossfire
your wrong sli or crossfire is more responsive than just 1 your ignorant.
thats because 80 percent games are designed for nvidia cards. ATI went a different route, they specialize in AV thats stands for Audio/Video for you simple minded poor economic challenged smuck

Hi,
I’m hopping to run it on this spec
CPU i7
2 x ati 4850′s
8gb ram
Win 7 64 bit
you will have no problem what-so-ever.
how about mine?
Intel Core i7 – 2600 3.4GHz/3.8GHz
Gigabyte Z68X-UD3R-B3 – SLI, Crossfire, SATA 6Gbps & USB 3.0 – 2 x PCI-E 16x Slots
4GB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580 – Fully Direct X 11
no shit its direct x 11 you must just be wishing you had a 580gtx your ignorance shows
Asus Striker Maximus IV
Intel Core i7 2600K @3,4GHz (OC)
8GB Mushkin DDR3 RAM @ 1600MHz
2x nVidia GTX280 (OC)
Should run very smooth
Amd 1100 T Hexa-Core 3.9 (OC)
4gb 1666mhz Ram
Nvidia GeForce 560 ti 1000mhz clock speed (OC)
I think this should run smooth……everything else does
you wont be able to run it in dx11 though
lol yes it will, ive ran every other game full dx11 perfectly, and the alpha ran perfect even with a beta graphic card driver
and bf3 isnt as hardware demanding as ppl think, its all about optimization of the game itself and how supported your drivers are lol
your graphic cards don’t support dx 11 …
i was talking about the 2 280′s, the 560TI will not have any problems with dx11 maxed out
Intel Desktop Board DX58SO2
Intel core i7 extreme hex core (oc)
Corsair Vengeance LP 16GB DDR3 1600MHz CL9 (OC)
Quad SLI – eVga gtx 590 classified 3 (oc)(ov)
should run even smoother
hi just asking if this will run bf3
intel i5 2500k
gtx 560ti
8gb ram
Sorry for braking it to you, but there is no such thing as QUAD-SLi in a dual GPU card like the GTX 590 is. Cause 4 cards X 2 GPU each = 8 GPus. The maximum is 4 GPU in nVidias SLi… at the moment.
Specs:
ASUS maximus IV gene-z
2600K @ 5Ghz w/ H100 Liquid Cooling
6870, soon 2 of em
CL9 XMS3 Corsair 8GB
That, will run it smoothly
Asus Formula V
8GB 2000mhz Transcend
AMD Hex Core 1100T @ 3.9GHZ (soon bulldozer 8 core)
MSI R6970 Lightning
Good?
So…how exactly is an i7 2600k @ 3.4Ghz an O/C..Considering the i7 2600k…or any 2600 for that matter, runs 3.4Ghz stock. And all things considered on the i7 2600k’s you can drop a $40 air cooler and nab a 4.8Ghz O/C
what the f.ck man ???
) and i se.y and you know it :Xx !!!
why the hell do people dislike someone asking for guidance? honestly ppl, that aint neccasary you kno?
stop showing off you noob.
don’t think I’ll have too much problems.

yes, crossfire would be good, but it will run fine with one. crossfire is just to improve the fps (frames per second. example non-crossfire 30-40 fps, crossfire 60-80 fps) so yes one will work great.

LOL did you read the box so you think you know alot about gpu’s a single mid to high end card by itself can run at 60 fps what are you smoking sli & xfire are for distrusting the memory load being able to have more than 1 monitor than a single card would support
What about a single 3GB GDDR5 Nvidia GTX 590 Liquid Cooled..
No way to weak a card : )
Kyle
my mate your gtx590 3gb ddr5 is the most powerful card yet made, is better than 6990, 6980 or any else. it will handle this game on everything set to highest and highest resolution with over 90fps. so enjoy!!!!!!!!!
Ignorant much? A 590 is weaker than a 6990. If your wanting to go the nVidia route your far better off snagging two 580′s than a 590. The 1.5GB of VRAM onboard the 590 make it worthless for Surround (multi-monitor setups). At least nVidia figured that out and upped the available VRAM to 3GB on the revised 580′s.
In addition it has been stated that Frostbite 1.5 runs better on AMD cards anyways. So 6990 for the win here.
580s are apparently unstable like the whole 400 series on win 7.
no its not 2 580′s rape the 590
Wow, Kyle. I can’t believe you would buy such a cheap, outdated, useless card and expect it to run BF3. I would AT LEAST Tri-SLI three of those to maybe hit 1,000,000 FPS.
The funny thing is that you can’t go Tri SLI with that card, only 2-way SLI, because a GTX590 has two gpus and the highest multi-GPU solution supported is 4 GPUs. a little math here:
so 2x GTX590 in 2-way SLI = 4 GPUs. thats the highest available lol. 3x GTX590 in 3-way SLI= 6 GPUs which is not supported:D
i have no fucking idea why i got so many dislikes. well grow a brain then, idiots…
Maybe it’s because you can’t take a joke?
So people start to hate for no reason? I just pointed out that it’s impossible… Excuse me for not laughing my ass off at that “joke”. Maybe it wasn’t funny at all, that’s why I didn’t recognize it.
Well, haters gonna hate.
man,i’m using HD 5670 1 GB , and it’s running great on high settings !
Same here, Fox. I run this maxed out (not res because the TV hates 1920x 1800… running it at 1360×760) with a 5870 (1gb). I’d tell the rest of the specs- but you didn’t, so no need for me to show off… mainly because I’ve seen too much of that at the top of the comments…
can i play BF3 in high quality with 136o*720?i have a amd hd 5670 1gb
um duh
i just wanted to point out that BF3 stands for Boron trifluoride. that is all.
2x 6850′s in crossfire overclocked should run it fine, as if you check review websites even at stock speeds 2×6850′s beat out 1 6950 on benchmark tests for most games. I got 2 6850′s and have them both overclocked to 940/1150 from 775/1000 with only a minor voltage bump from 1.149 to 1.162.
Does it work on these requierments? intel i5 1.67, 4GB ram and card
m560 HD 1.5G
I have it running smooth on Ultra settings with two 6850s in Crossfire.
I’m running with crossfire HIS 6850′s and it runs extremely well
Hi, please help me with this one… Does the soundtype need to be directx compatibl sound or can i have ALTEC LANSING? Plz answer me!
Would a nVidia GeForce GT 520M w/1GB GDDR3 w/Optimus Switching Graphics Technology run Battlefield 3 good with 8GB RAM 3.1 Ghz Processor?
Guys, do u think that Sony VAIO VPCEE25FX will run this game?
I just got a GTX 570 TI, the card will run anything I throw at it, BC2, Crysis 2, Bulletstorm. I’m certain i’ll handle BF3 without any hickups.
Will I be able to run it with an:

GTX570 Ti? WTF? i thought there are only GTX570 and GTX560 Ti …
And, what you read this delirium? Support XP and DX9 well. Hopes of owners of old cars need to be warmed up. Remember that developers spoke. That there will be no support 9 out-of-date systems. Don’t take the people for a ride
It will definitely not work with a computer running xp and dx9
this game is freaking 1080p. dx9 will not run that shit and im assuming you have no video card, just the motherboard implementation.
so now it will most likely not run
Source: i have one of those computers like that and i can barely run tf2
You have no idea what you’re talking about… at all.
U are correct my good man
Realistic prediction. Good work!
I meet everything from the Recommended sys req,
except the graphics card:
it’s an nVidia 8800 GTX 768mb.
I haven’t yet made my mind up about upgrading it.
I bet I can still play it on low graphics? My res is 1920×1080 so I guess medium graphics won’t go well?
I have group of gamers playing Bad Company 2:
I have two HD4890′s in CF but the rest of us are playing on Medium settings with excellent performance using these cards:
HD4850
HD4770
9800GTX (512MB)
8800GT
8800GS
HD2900 XT
I have a felling your 9800GTX 768MB card will do just fine, a strong CPU tends to be more important for these frostbite engine games.
Your logic is wrong
I can personally attest to the 4770 for anything <HD i have one and it runs BC2 on MAX and im guessing it will run BF3 on Med/High and its cheap as well
i think only a high end i5 or some kind of i7 will run this game smoothly on high
No freaking way man, sorry but BF3 need latest gen cards to play properly, otherwise imagine 1280×1024 or similar with everything to low.+ you’ll miss all the new technologies the FB2.0 has to offer.
I’m actually running the beta rather smoothly with a single 450.
do you think HD 5770 can run this?
Depending on your ram, CPU, and OS you should be able to run that on high settings. I was able to play Crysis on high settings with that card. Its a good card and still not outdated, you shouldn’t have any problems unless your cpu is old.
Yeah you should definitely be fine. My 5770 runs everything I throw it at with a 1920 by 1080 resolution, normally at highest settings. You may, however, need to take it easy on the Anti-Aliasing…
My Specs:
Intel Core i5 750 @2.66GHz
8GB DDR3
Radeon 5770 VaporX
He should be perfectly fine. I was in the alpha trail for bf3, system setting
Hd 5770, amd six core processor, 3tb hd, 4 gb ram …upgrading to 12.
With my settings on high and i steel play bfbc2 on high. So he should be fine
epic, i recently brought a i7 2600k i havent even over clocked it and from what your saying about it running smooth even with everything you throw at it…
my 5770 (oc)
combined with my i7 2600k @ 3.4ghz &
8GB of Ram + Windows 7 64 bit
what’s the highest res you think i could go to have around idk 40-70? stabilizing around idk 50-60? i prefer to play at 1440×900 but i don’t mind playing at a slightly lower res
I think you will run it with a 5770 but on low middish graphic res about 1680×1050 that is without AA/Occlusion/Tessalation enabled.
we would need to know what are the other components of your computer to better help you.
Also, for asgaro, the 8800GTX will not run BF3 it is not a DX10 card…. you will need to upgrade.Go for a 5970/6950/6970
or Nvidia 480/560/570/580
Depending on your budget.
Also consider that you need a good CPU and Good ram to keep up with the speed of the video card.
G8 GPUs are DX10. I had an 8600GTS that ran Crysis in DX10 a few years ago.
8800gtx is definitely dx10
8800gtx was the daddy of DX10 cards. It was the first of the dx10 to be released.
Nah the 5770 paired with good hardware will surely be able to handle the game on Med-High settings at least. I run BBC2 at highest at over 50 FPS, that is with an i5 750 and 8 GB DDR3.
You should also consider an nVidia 550 ti, 1 gig of ram is also a good card to run game. I use it for Bad Company 2 on max everything and it runs very smooth. The card itself ran me about $150.
u are idiot, all 8000 series graphics card have dx 10
do you guys think a single 480 Geforce card can handle this ?
Probably not at true MAX graphics, I could see it running ~good at part medium/high graphics, 2x AA
Yes the 460 should do perfect at Max, except full anti-aliasing, as long as u have a above 4gb of ddr3 ram, and a Quad-Core over 3.0 Ghz, because just ur graphics card wont to the trick alone… I have the GTX 560ti and I alpha tested BF3, I had no problems with max everything…but yet again that was in alpha stage, and should be more optimized(you would think lol)
GTX 480 is a monster along with 580 sure all high at HD but take it easy on AA& AF no need to tweak shadows I guess.
Why is it the digital download version is only 10GB compared to the retail which is 15GB?
It might be that the digital version uses a different kind of compression.
You guys think my ATI HD 5570 and AMD Phenom x4 2.8 gHz should be able to run this? Because I just checked, and my graphics card is below the minimum for BF;BC2.
I think maybe not, but I’m not sure.
You should be able to run it OK. Maybe not the best graphics but should be runnable. I’m looking at buying the 5570 and it meets the minimum reqs with DX11 and 1GB of memory
What? Doesn’t meet the req-s of BC2? I’m running on AMD Phenom 9650 @ 2.3 and a HD4650 and runs perfect, I can even run BF3 on low-med settings. When the game comes out I’ll just update my card to some high end one
@ Frank:
I think you’re a bit confused: my 8800 GTX is a DX10 card. But not a DX11 one.
Regarding my CPU and RAM: I have an Intel Q6600 (stock speed) and 4GB.
But I’m wondering: will I benefit from a new graphics card or would my CPU nevertheless be a bottleneck? I’ve already researched a bit and if I would buy one, the ATI Radeon HD 6950 1GB seems my best choice.
Since you’re running an 8800 GTX you could do with upgrading your graphics. You should be fine and not bottleneck since you have a quad-core (been there, bottlenecked on a C2D E8500 stock with a GTX 460).
Actually, 6950…. you might bottleneck a bit. But I think it will still be worth the upgrade. Then you can get an Ivybridge or Bulldozer CPU when they come out if you wanted to.
Hey guys,
I have an i7 930 @ 3.6 GHz, 12GB DDR3 RAM and 1GB ATI 5870.
Do you think this will run well at 1920 x 1080?
Thanks
Yep, should run high. Graphics memory matters when you have high res displays like a 1080p one.
Hi,
I have a core i7 930 OC to 3.5, 12 Gb DDR3 and two GTX 480 in SLI. I know its a very competent pc andI can play BC2 in high with AA and Vsync at steady 60 fps at 1920×1080.
However I wanna know if i can still have everything on high and vsync at 60fps bc even though its a more optimized game there are new lighting and phisix features that i would like to enjoy to the max.
did you OC ur cpu cause my i7 960 stock is at 3.2ghz
sorry was meant for Dan 2 posts above you
@Ferret141
It seems you’re right: bit of a bottleneck but all in all still a nice fps improvement. thx
hmm guys cpu does not hurt frame rates unless its like under 3.2ghz.. even if u have a quad core cpu the cpu does bottleneck the hole computer.. if u have 2.8 ghz quad core it will be a bottleneck unless u over clock it.. But a 2.8ghz pretty much will allow u to do every u need.. but say if u have a 2.4ghz quad u will be getting stupid frame rates no matter how good your graphics card is and probably you would get the occasional freezing in gaming for like quarter of a sec which is noticeable…. i would almost grantee that a 3.2ghz dual core would get more fps and less chance of stutter… there r like hardly any games that support quad core… im sure battlefield 3 will support all 4 or 6 or even all 8 cores that is coming out this year remember guys battlefield 3 is coming out at the end of the year and the guys in the company would already have access to the bulldozer chips and probably even the ivy bridge chips to make there game so much better
@qwertyz mm a 5570 is pushing it a little ull be lucky to have anything set to medium with smooth game play the cpu is fine u really need a new graphics card…
@Asgaro a 6950 will play pretty much anything on highest with really good frame rates.. a 8800GTX was a nice card back in the day
Can i play this game on high-settings ?

You should be able to play it on high settings with those specs.

thanks
not good at all, vista is horrible when it comes to gaming, and the old series of Nvida…nope, 32 bit …. nope ….old dual core ? i don’t think so, i guess u need to but
hello guys , what do u think about this ? do u think i can run this game on high settings and just a HD resolution with 30FPS ?

plz let me know what u think and i have no plan to upgrade my GPU just yet , tanx .
hi settings
I HATE YOU DICE
im gona hate bf3, i hate win7 , how the f*** am i gona play it now?!?!?!
(im on win xp)
other then that, it will be best game ever !!!!!!
WinXP is 10 years old. You should upgrade to Win 7, if only because it’s a lot safer OS.
It’s not that hard to figure out if you are within the spec ranges to perform above and beyond in the HIGH end mode.
Simply ensure your specs are better than the recommended. Period.
People need to understand recommended settings still don’t mean you will demolish this on FPS or on ping. IF you wanna play online with HIGH settings, you need to be beating the recommended settings by a good margin. The category I wanted them you be a bit more specific in is recommended ram modules. 6 gigs of what?? ddr3 ? 1333?
Why don’t people who have old machines go play CoD , you whiners.
They will support your old os, and your old philosophies.
Be a hater, because that will really make them take a step back to DX9 even though its the age of DX11.
Why are you still running XP? Crimany, you can upgrade to 7 for $75+. You may even find it on sale some where.
Good thing I read this. I was all set to pre-order, but with Vista and my 8800GTX xxx oc apparently not supported, I guess it’ll be a couple years, since I’m not going to pay for an OS upgrade for a simple game.
Windows Vista 64
3.0Ghz Opteron 180
4GB DDR 415
8800GTX xxx oc edition 786MB (further 10% oc beyond factory)
im sure you will be fine.. these people and all their extremely high end pc’s are stupid.. half of it isnt being used.
I dont know where you got this idea from but im pretty sure every componant in a PC is being used for its manufactured purpose or is it a jealousy post that you wish you had a high end gaming PC ????
Goolash, Vista and your 8800GTX are most certainly supported. I don’t know what made you think otherwise.
Hey do you think i can Run it ?
i5 -750 2,67 GHz
ATI 5770
4 Gb RAM
Win7 64 bit
Yep, though not at max. Your graphics card is the biggest bottleneck, however a bit of overclocking would be nice.
would i be able to run Battlefield 3?
Intel Core_i5_3210M Processor 2.5GHz
8 GB SDRAM RAM
750GB 5400rpm Hard Drive
Intel HD Graphics 4000
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
Get yourself a GTX460 1GB or HD6870 an overclock the cpu to 3Ghz and you got yourself a very good setup
it seems no one wanna answer me in this BF3 blog , anyway !
Spezialiced u be sure that u can run this game on high settings (not very high) if u overclock ur CPU to upper than 3.0Ghz and of course if u dont care that much about playing this game in much higher than HD resolution .
i just needed a damn answer but no one gave a **** about what i asked , no problem now im sure i can run BF3 on High .
Thank you
Do you guys think i can maxed it out on 1680X1050 with my system???
AMD X4 965 black edition ( 4X3.4Ghz )
8GB DDR 3 (1600Mhz)
GTX 570 OC (MSI twin fronzen)
Pls give a comment:)
You should definitely be able to run it on medium settings, perhaps even high.
Who the hell is that BF3Blog here:P?
my system:
GTX570 (oc to 900Mhz)
AMD 965 (oc to 3.8Ghz)
8GB ram ddr3 (1600Mhz)
He said to me you will run it op medium.
Then he said to another guy You run it on high with you system
Quad core Q6600 at 2.8GHz
4GB 1300 MHz
MSI GTX 460 TWIN
is it just me or he is talking bullshit
just kidding right?
dude wtf ??? he has a gtx 570 OC! he can max out this game easily with 40 fps ! what’s wrong with u people and there a guy asked if he can run it a gtx 480 and u said medium settings with 2XAA ?????/ the gtx 480 can rape this game man , learn some good stuff about gpu’s and then comment !
With 3x GTX570′s, 16 gigs, X6 1090T OC’d @ 4.3 ghz I’m good. Can’t wait for that Bulldozer to drop though. The way I figure if my son’s rig runs BC2 at and average of 84 fps, bottoming out around 65 fps, with a X4 955 @ 3.4 ghz, 8 gigs, and 2x GTX 260′s… Everything maxed. Then anyone with a single 480 or 570 should be able to run this one with good fps with setting set pretty high.
Actually what graphics settings you where using in the trailers?
Yep dude u can max it out with that bloody GPU
but its better if u overclock ur CPU .
hi,DICE…
do you think my laptop :
SUS G Series G53JW-XN1 NoteBook Intel Core i7 740QM(1.73GHz) 15.6″ 4GB Memory DDR3 1333 500GB HDD 7200rpm DVD Super Multi NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460M
is gonna be able to run the game high with AA/AF?
please, i need your comment
@guilherme_br i don’t think that gfx card will run it max with like 60 or 30 fps. it could run bfbc2 on 30 fps average, but don’t think it will on Bf: 3
@asskickaAD don’t you will ever reach medium settings with that. just because a (bad) 2010 game run it with high settings doesn’t mean anything. Hell Black ops has the worst graphics ever and still uses the modified 1999 id tech 3 engine. so to summarize it you won’t be able to play this maxed out. maybe at low settings
probably at 1080p with medium, dont go all the way , and AA is not an option if u want good FPS rate
a huge downer is that you have 1.73 ghz minimum is 2.0 :/.
anyway how well will an Intel i7 sandy gamer 2600k with an 6950 HD 3.4 ghz run this badboy on high?
you should be pretty solid but with that 2600k you can OC to 4 ghz no problem
Why have an i7 2600k @ stock speeds anyways? Shit, I have mine @ 4.8Ghz on air.
Hey mate, any chance of posting your bios settings or whatever for your 2600k oc as I’m up to 4.7 on mine on water but worried about overvolting. If you had time, that would be much appreciated?
Cheers
