Are my PC specs good? What sort of games can I run?

[h0tangel99]

My PC specs:
AMD Phenom II x4 955 Black Edition 3.2 GHz
4 GB DDR3 RAM (Should I upgrade to 8 GB?)
EVGA GeForce 560 ti superclocked 1024 MB
Windows 64-bit OS

What kind of games can I run on max settings? How high of settings do you think I can run Battlefield 3 on?

Also, am I bottlenecked in any way?

you dont need 8 gig of RAM for gaming

the frame rates you will get will depend on the resolution of your monitor

if you havent bought parts yet use the format suggested at the top of the forum in the thread abut how to ask for advice

You can run all the games. Depends on the resolution you play. On 1920X1080 you can play with good fps.

as long as your arent running multiple monitors you can play bf3 on high fine also as outlander said 8gig wont make any noticable difference in gaming

There's no bottleneck and your 4GB of RAM is plenty.

You should be able to play BF3 on High-Ultra (somewhere in between) with a solid FPS at 1080p. Over-clocking the card will also provide a few extra FPS.

I've been on that bandwagon until i read that BF3 takes up around 3.50 to 3.75 GB of RAM when playing. What do you think it will be like when Crysis 3 comes out?
