After I see how it does with 6 gb of ram then I'll figure out if I'm gonna jump to 8. DDR3 is cheap.

Nice laptop, I have the same model, but it has the A6 chip.

Can it run BF3? Do you have the 6520G Graphic's or the 6620 ?

Yeah I figure the 6620 will have a tiny bit more poop. Maybe it will run the single player OK. I still haven't played much of it. It should run BFBC2 and MOH honor pretty good. I actually got it for streaming sports. Set it next to my main gamer. Man it has been so fucking miserable in Boise. You can't see a quarter mile the smoke is so thick. They sent in the National Guard now because Otter's property in Featherville is threatened by the Trinity Ridge Fire

This fucker uses out of map glitches to kill people. On top of crashed heli in scrap metal and outside slider doors on Op 925.



Not hacking, but still annoying as fuck when you are trying to play a normal game.

I assume you mean all it's good for it benching, because I doubt you have a stock pile of dry ice for gaming But yeah it's why I asked, I've only ever seen people use dice for benches.

Battlefieldo - August Premium Content + Map Contest

Quote:
Discussion in 'News & Updates' started by Epwna, 37 minutes ago.

The official Battlefield Blog has updated announcing the Premium Content for August. It's not exactly what we were had in mind, but it's still cool nonetheless.

Saturday-Sunday, AUG 25-27
Double XP Event
Start times:
Los Angeles 00:01:00 August 25
Stockholm 09:01:00 August 25
Paris 09:01:00 August 25
New York 03:01:00 August 25
Tokyo 16:01:00 August 25


DICE are also running a community challenge on Facebook, with every 5,000 shares adding 12 hours to the length of the event (max of 72 hours)


Wednesday, AUG 29th
New gameplay footage from Armored Kill
Exclusive Hi-res Downloadable Artwork (24 original concept art)

Friday, AUG 31
Pitch Your Map Concept to DICE
This one is interesting; Premium members will be able to submit level design ideas to the developers, with the possibility of winning a rare limited edition BF3 lithograph signed by the DICE team. Details will be posted Aug 31, which is also when the competition will open. (DICE haven't stated whether they'll actually USE the map idea, just that the best will win a prize)



What do you think? Excited about the contest? Or were you expecting more in-game content?

Well most people when they get a card, they don't care about benchmarks. They want to play games with it and the GTX680 is on par and if not better then the 7970 by 5-8%

Well I know you didn't have the 7980 for benchmarks because that card definitely does not exist.
