low everything 32player maps maximum.

GpuYankee · Feb 16, 2014

Yeah i find it funny some people say that Medium,High,Low Like wtf? why?

13thmonkey · Feb 16, 2014

i'm not sure what you are trying to say, your gpu is weak, hence low, your cpu is weak, hence 32 player max.

...Depending on the resolution you'll be playing at, you'll probably be using low-to-medium settings. I don't understand your confusion.

The Q9300 isn't really a slow processor, but it's getting fairly old at this point. The GTS 450, on the other hand, was never a fast card to begin with.

If you're asking what settings to use, I'm not sure how we can help with that... No, your PC won't be playing at 70FPS, nor do you need it to be; turn everything to the lowest setting, and start turning things up until you can actually notice the game slowing down. Back off a little and there's what you'll be running at.

Hey what you think about XFX HD 5770 is it better than GTS450 is it fast enough or go for GTX460 or GTX285?

GpuYankee :

so someone gives you the answer and you say WTF? Don't expect too many more answers!

GpuYankee · Feb 16, 2014

No i didin't say that to his answer i said to other ones from other websites.

13thmonkey · Feb 16, 2014

Ahhh! 285 no, 460 not really. http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/gaming-graphics-card-review,review-32884.html pick your budget, use the table on the last page to figure out where you will be compared to where you are.

GpuYankee · Feb 17, 2014

Why didin't i buy a GTX card

GpuYankee · Feb 17, 2014

What you think about GTX550? it would not bottleneck a little if i OC my CPU like 0.5%?

13thmonkey · Feb 17, 2014

550 is previous previous generation, so it's not great. a 0.5% OC will do nothing. Do not be too concerned about bottlenecks. 650 or the new upcoming 750/750Ti would be much much better.

On the lowest of low settings, on the lowest resolution, you will still not be able to enjoy BF4 on multiplayer. 70fps is completely out of the question. 30 may be pushing it. Sorry, but your system is incredibly weak (not trying to be rude, just candid), and you basically will need a brand new computer at this point to play it.

GpuYankee · Feb 17, 2014

Yeah i know i need a better pc but maybe in the Future

So that means i wasted money for BF4 nice :x BF3 runs great On Ultra 50-40 FPS multiplayer so Q9300 even wouldn't help of oc'd 3.2? maybe going to get a good GPU but say what Gpu would be smooth for my CPU:?

jghaverty · Feb 17, 2014

Actually, its your lack of ram and poor graphics card that Im basing that on. You can fix those 2 easily enough and do your cpu last. 8gb of ddr3 ram is almost a priority.

GpuYankee · Feb 17, 2014

Well Time to save some money

jghaverty · Feb 17, 2014

GpuYankee :

Well, a good way to start, as long as your mother board and core support it, get some ram first when you find a good deal. Newegg has deals on ram ALL THE TIME. Just save up and keep your eyes open for great deals, they pop up all the time really.

GpuYankee · Feb 17, 2014

There's a problem i live in Lithuania we got LOTS! of computer component shops so if i will catch a discount gonna get me some 8gb Ddr2 because my motherboard only supports it

GpuYankee · Feb 17, 2014

I say problem because i don't have a paypall to order it i think im to lazy to make one

13thmonkey · Feb 17, 2014

just get 2x1GB sticks, you'll have 6GB and you'll be fine.

GpuYankee · Feb 17, 2014

Yes, I'm thinking of buying 6 or maybe more Ram like 8 Gigs but maybe if i Oc a little Gpu and CPU maybe a little performance jump will happen? it can't be real that my system cannot run BF4 because i read some comments in other websites that High settings 40-50 fps.

jghaverty · Feb 17, 2014

high @ 50fps? Maybe in single player on 720p while standing still. Multiplayer at 900 - 1080p with high settings and that setup will be unplayable. You can load the game, sure, you will just get angry when your screen keeps freezing and you die over and over.

GpuYankee · Feb 17, 2014

oh my rez. 1280x1024

jghaverty · Feb 17, 2014

Honestly your computer doesn't even meet the minimum recommended settings, much less is it going to be able to play high or multiplayer. Im really not trying to be a butthead here, Im just trying to give you realistic expectations. If you want to play single player with low settings and low resolution, it will probably work ok.

GpuYankee · Feb 17, 2014

Ok i see we will never get to the conclussion so im closing this

Will my pc be Able to play BF4 in MP?
