battlefield 3 issues
Since i bought the game been having nothing but problems getting it to run properly. I keep getting what they call rubber-banding. I have changed my graphics card to a gtx570ti in a hope to fix it. I also have the latest drivers and software for the card.
My system cpu core 2 duo E8400 3.01 GHz 4 meg of corsair ram gtx560ti graphics p5q pro motherboard Kingston solid state drive 60gig (bf3 installed on second drive not primary) I would of thought this would of been good enough to get this game working. I don't think its my provider as it also has the same problem on campaign mode. Hopefully some one can help. |

This game is very CPU intensive. This 'may' be the problem for you as you only have a dual core. I can't say for certain though, but I believe it is likely. If you have a 'significant other' then nows the time to butter them up for an upgrade.

i thnk minimum means you'll get 1 frame drawn every century :P
even recommended specs can be a bit dodgy imo i've just grabbed a better socket775 P35 MB (cause i thought mine was stuffed - i was wrong) and Q6600 of ebay for $200 all up to upgrade my second machine. a E6000 + GTX470 was sitting 99% on cpu all the time and 30% on the GPU. where as on the other Q6600 with GTX560 is 80% and 60% from memory. |

Finaly battlefield works but every now and again it crashes to windows. But for the most it is stable. This is a epic of a game. The graphics are fanstastic. I found my self looking at the streams and water affects untill someone shot me. $900 dollars later for the upgrade to just play it. I wish i had shares in some of the computer hardware manufacturers becasue there will be a lot of people upgrading. If you can afford it, do is you will not. be dissapointed. As for the minimum requirements i think they missed the mark by a long shot. I would of said.
CPU quad core Memory 6GIG minimum Graphics - Not sure will have to be able to run at 20 frames a second. |
