Will my computer run BF3?

[Guest]

Sorry if I'm supposed to post this in a different thread rather than making another topic but I didn't want to hijack someone else's topic.
So my computer's specs are (until the AMD 7xxx and Nvidia's new video cards come out) is this:
Intel Core 2 Quad Q8300 @2.5GHz
4GB DDR2 RAM (generic RAM that came with my Dell)
MSI N560GTX-TI Twin Frozr II/OC GeForce GTX 560 Ti
Corsair TX650w 80+Certified PSU
Windows 7 Premium 64 Bit
Thanks.

Yes

Do you know on what settings? I'm hoping medium but I really don't know.

Minimum require a 3870 and recommend is a GTX 560 so I guess you will run at least medium.

Cool! Was kinda hoping high but that's a longshot. Oh well even on medium the game looks amazing.

Found this preliminary benchmark:

http://www.pcgameshardware.com/aid,847209/Battlefield-3-Beta-18-Radeon-and-Geforce-cards-SLI-und-Crossfire-benchmarked/Practice/

So on max you don't get the magic number of 30 for minimum fps, so I guess you need high and tweak around it to get better picture quality but still stay over 30 for min fps. But of course, there could be alot of optimization before release so you may have a chance to run max.

Oh PC I love you so! Honestly I'm so glad I spent the $310 to upgrade my PSU and GFX card so I can have much better graphics than console. Anyways thanks a lot!
