Do you mean Battlefield 3 and not Bad Company 3?

 

[JSG10]

Yes it should do but why don't you get a higher end more expensive single card instead of two cheaper less powerful cards? You'll be better off for it.

I wanted to run bf3 on high details in full hd (1920x1080). But from what i have read so far i really doubt that I will be able to do so. Any thoughts on what i should upgrade?

4GB ram
Intel i5 760
ati radeon 5850

What would u need to run it on highest?=D dx 11 ofc

 

[NMEBowen]

no current technology avalible to the public can run bf3 but the nvidia 560 is the lowest recommended gpu

edit: ops i meant no current tech can max out bf3.

i dont know where you are getting that from considering the 580 got about 50fps on the alpha at 1080p and they will dope it down more otherwise theyll get no sales

 

[NMEBowen]

im getting that from ea and dice so its a good source

560 = recommended

you made it sound like the minimum

 

[NMEBowen]

lowest recommended not min but i guess recommended means medium settings and as the gameplay vids were all medium settings it should still be pretty breathtaking but sli`d 580`s still wont max it id guess the 600 series cards should catch up with frostbite 2

 

[Wozza63]

recommended on majority of games is 60fps on high, so max wont be much above and therefore a single 570/580 will be plenty

they wouldnt produce a game which required 2 580s, first of all it would be much more expensive and secondly they wont get a return because people wont be able to see full settings

 

[NMEBowen]

wozza dice already announced there isnt any current tech for max settings so sadly no sli`d 580 wont max it out if i could find the original post id show you.

 

[Wozza63]

i can guarentee you that you will be able to max it on a single 580 no AA, there may be minor, invisible adjustments needed to be made but nothing really visible on screen

 

[Wozza63]

what do you mean?

there is pushing technology forward and then there is outdoing everything completely, this is from a post a while back from the alpha

[NMEBowen]

and the alpha was toned down half the gfx options were perminently turned off

 

[Wozza63]

and? optimizations will be made to bring it down to a similar level, slightly above what the alpha did

well the beta comes out a week today for those who bought MoH or pre ordered on origin and im sure someone will be straight onto benchmarking and i reckon that a 580 will max it on 1080p/DX11 with at least 30fps

 

[NMEBowen]

yer i plan to

 

[Wozza63]

and trust me, if it required more than 2 580s to max it out, i certainly wont be buying a PC for it, and will just be sticking to my xbox

 

[NMEBowen]

yer but concidering you wont even have it in 720p on a console i personally wont be able to deal with that

 

[Wozza63]

tbh i dont care about that cos if im not getting the top thing when i pay way over 1000 then ill just stick with what i got and save money
