Hi

Not going to watch a video...but you have precisely NO CHANCE of playing BF3 on Ultra for $300

All the best Brett

why are pc gamers so ignorant -_- I didnt say you had to watch the vid but at least read the specs in the description of the vid.

MeanMrMurph · Apr 12, 2013

Heironious :

what would you recommend? for my budget :??:

vrumor · Apr 12, 2013

So you come here and ask for help and then insult the people that are trying to help you. Good way to get help.

asalikus · Apr 12, 2013

Hello, we are not here to be called ignorant but that is not TRUE ultra. As said in the description he plays it on a 1280X720 resolution. I also think his system is utterly unstable, he bought the shittest 250w PSU for only $10, he would be lucky if that computer doesn't burn down his house in the next month.

MeanMrMurph · Apr 12, 2013

vrumor :

He didnt even give a chance to look at the description how is that helping. the only reason i came to try pc gaming was because ive read alot of people on youtube say they play on ultra bf3 with a 500$ rig and what im getting from most searches on this forum is you need atleast 700-1000 to play on ultra and every pc gamer says your saving soooo much money how is spending 1000$ saving money

Single player? I would say high might be playable. Multi player drop it down to med for playable frame rates. Everyone here seems to think "playable" means 60+ fps at all times. NO AA turned on though.

Brett928S2 · Apr 12, 2013

Hi

Kids lol...

All the best Brett

Only multiplayer. whats AA? What would need to be upgraded to play on high settings?

Anti aliasing is alot of extra work for graphics card to smooth out edges in games. If you want better performance, I would say get the 7850 (but it costs more) but then you would need a bigger power supply (also more) at least 500 watts and a brand name.

Edit: So yeah, to run high you would need a $700+ computer system. Although what I listed would be fine on medium.

Are you stupid or just an ass? Get your 15000+ useless messages off the internet. Either try to help or stop being a douche. All the best, Heiro.

songorocosongo · Apr 12, 2013

I used to play with a HD6850 which is comparable to the 7770 and I played on High setting on multiplayer. It always felt smooth and on single player I could turn it to ultra and was playable
