Upgraded for BF3

[Didge]

After much fecking around i managed to cobble together an extra PCI-E power lead for the new GFX card

Why you can't just order a double ended 6 pin lead with male connectors on both ends without writing to Corsair is a bloody joke!

Anyhoo, yesterday i installed Win 7 64 and this

It doesn't run as smoothly as BC2 on mine although I think I had the same problem with the BC2 demo.
I did read that people with dual core processors may struggle with it, which I have.

I'm running it at the highest detail @ 1680 X 1050 (the highest the monitor will do) but the PC goes into a fit and tries to take off.
I have to play with my foot resting on the top of it.

Turn the settings down?

I hate playing at low detail.
It runs real smooth @ high,it's just the fan noise and heat that annoys me.
Mind you it is warm here right now,that's not helping.

I cant notice too much difference between Low and Ultra graphics setttings.
I switched it up to Ultra today, and game was still running fine. Ive got a core2duo and only 4 gigs of ram, Previously it was quite laggy, but I guess that was network lag.
Or didge my of been using the internet, that always messes with my ping.

Maybe this game isnt as much a resource hog as I thought.
