BF3

This game is a resource hog!! 1.5 gigs vram, 5 gigs system ram. I think it likes a high OC on the cpu. Going to run some fraps later but so far smooth gameplay.

Just got mine todaycan we start playing now.

i should have my copy tomorrow. Cant wait to see this baby running at max settings

Its definately beautiful, and it recognized my settings and chose ultra all by its self at my resolution I didnt have to touch a thing except mouse sensitivity.

Guys is it possible for you guys to let me know your gpu/s and res and then let me know the max settings you can play smooth at that res please? include game settings and aa settings also, thank you, I like to get a good idea what can really do what, so that I know better what to recommend for the new people for bf3, this is real world results here, yours are the ones that really count.

but remember please only include the max settings that gaming was smooth in.

kinda like:

gpu/res/game settings/aa settings/average fps if available:

sli 570 1.5GB, 1920 x 1080, ultra, 4xaa, you can put average fps here if you have it, if not its not that big of a deal.

I thank you for your time, its much appreciate it

DST4ME. I have the ODE3 so you know what I have running it. My res is 1920x1080. Text Quality set Ultra. Everything else is set on high. The Altialiasing is set deferred. The game runs smooth as silk. The ODE3 for me was a great buy. Hope this is what you are looking for.    pos

Ok tested at many different maps and for long periods of play. Res 1920 1080 Everything on ultra except shadow quality which was set to high, 2XAA 16AF Average frames were between 51-60. Very smooth game play.

Nice that ODE 0 is a lil beast for the price :))

How do you find the FPS? I will post mine after a bit. Running through SP right now.

Fraps
im pretty sure even the free version can show fps for you.

game is way more demanding in single and looks a ton better.

Is it because you are used to the very fast paced, no down time action of MW? I can definitely see that, as BF is a tactical game. That lone wolf stuff doesn't work nearly as well in BF as it does in COD. A shame you're not liking the multiplayer. MW3 should be out soon enough though.

I was running game with SLI,  but I'll bet one 570 could handle this game.

PS.  Those of you with small SSD's.  Alot of these new games are 20 Gigs . On small SSD multiple games will eat up space quick. I'm usually only playing 2 or 3 at a time. So what I do is after I'm done with game, I create a back up ( to file not a DVD) and store it on my other harddrive. Then delete local content in steam (freeing up space for newer games). Then next time I want to play one of those games. I just load it from my other Drive where it is stored instead of having to download it. Very fast and effective.

 

Food For Thought Or Not LOLOL

I was mainly talking steam games.  I placed my Batman, Borderlands, Max Payne's, Portal, Metro 2033 ect.. on backup files on 2nd drive. Currently playing Black Ops, Rage, MW2  on SSD.

Do you have to use Origin to play single player from a DVD?

If you have it on the ssd, how do you know which copy you were running? how did you start the game?

when you copy something from say the ssd to the hdd, and then uninstall the one from the ssd, it does not touch the one on hdd, when you made a copy, you made it its own separate entity.

I will have to check my settings but @ 2560x1600 with a single 570 card I was getting between 30-40 FPS in MP.
