Well it's "sweeter than mayo", which is a good start!

also my pc isn't booting after a power outage, someone help me please(at this thread)

Aw ha they do have it in the UK :D Was it a power outage coupled with a surge ?
First check your switch on the power supply. Hopefully your PC didn't get fried.

System RAM capacity mostly makes a difference in load times, not FPS.

First and foremost, I want to make clear I am talking about Higher/Highest settings and Multiplayer . The TechSpot review is the only one that tests with dual core non-HT CPUs and even there we see almost a 10 fps diff at 1920x1200 between an X2 265 and a 2500K at the same clock speed which is significant especially if we are talking the difference between getting 25 and 35 fps (granted there are architecture diffs in play too). And that is with no MSAA. Though vram capacity is likely going to be the largest factor when it comes to high anti-aliasing.

That statement re. RAM definitely does not jibe with my experience (and that of some others here too). I can tell you High with MSAA enabled (2X) at 1920x1200 on a heavily-polpulated and action-packed match of multiplayer 4GB is not playable.

I do need to make a note here as especially for BF3 it counts, this is a single player benchmark test. In massive online environment your CPU will become increasingly more important and stressed much worse. However, of we purely focus on the graphics engine versus the processors used, the difference remains rather small.

Well I guess no one else has any input re. hardware and performance. That's fine; kinda been there done that though there isn't as much hard consensus about some things as I'd like except that GPU really trumps CPU as least when you have 4+ cores (even if two are virtual apparently despite the probs some have with HT enabled tho they were all 8 threads).

So I guess we can at least definitively answer mastrdrvr's original question that brought this up again: No a 970 is not really a worthwhile upgrade if you are looking to get something more out of BF3. As I said originally as you have a 5870 crossfire setup I'd say the best thing you could for the game is get more vram. You could possibly even run it better with a bit less raw horsepower but twice the memory like 6870 2GB Crossfire or 560 2GB SLI.

The last weapon unlock for each class (Assault/Engineeer/Support/Recon) is to make the faction-specific starting weapons available no matter what faction you are in. Details.

Figured the thread could use a little art work. I went back to the USS Hornet with a better camera then I had at the GeForce LAN. I figured this is related to the thread as the BF3 party was on the USS Hornet. This pin up painting is on the backside of a door in the torpedo room.

You can kiss classic nose art like that good bye. That no longer can work in the PC military of today.
