To get well above 60fps on ultra you would probably need a Nvidia gtx 670 or 680. I would wait to upgrade because both companies will be releasing their new series of graphics cards soon.


Your telling me that my 7770 can do 40+ fps on ultra even 50 on some map with 64 players with MSAA On, and a 7870 cant do 60?

The nvidia gtx 680 is the most powerful common video card on the market. I've read many user reviews that said they are getting around 75 fps on Battlefield 3 with the 680. I have a 7850 which is alot more powerful than your 7770 and it gets 45 to 50 fps on ultra, and about 65fps on high with an fx 8320 eight core cpu. I think the game is just coded poorly.

Getting back to your original question, you have to compare the 7770 and the 7850 at the same resolutions. I would guess the lower FPS on the 7850 are due to the reviewers (on the reviews you read) testing BF3 at 1080 P. You have your resolution at 900. So this is why you see the FPS you are seeing. A 7850 will out perform a 7770 at 1080P in BF3 any day. You have to make sure you are comparing different cards at the same resolutions to get accurate results.

Not really, it looks like it will be late 2013 for AMD.

So then at my current resolution i should see 60+ with the 7870

If your CPU can keep up, there's a good chance even a 7850 would do 60 FPS at your resolution.
