From the few interviews I've been reading, BF3 should have better graphics with better performance, compared to BC2 :D
Let's just hope that's true :)

think you might have a problem somewhere. My single 5870 holds 80fps, max settings @ 1920*1200 IIRC (can't find my disk right now to back that)

I agree. On all high with 2xaa 16aaf I get about 45-55fps with an overclocked 4870 1gb.

You might have your AA at 0x ...when I turn my AA from 16x to 0x I get +95 FPS.

Maybe, but even so, by that graph with AA turned up, I'll be getting what your getting with TWO 5850. You should get considerably more performance with two 5850 than I get with just one 5870. Doesn't two 5850 equal a 5970? You should be getting in the mid to high 80 FPS. Also, that chart is for 1200p, you're running 1080p according to the monitor listed in your system specs, another reason you should be getting better performance.

you know what I was wrong lol :slap: I just played for 30 mins and my average FPS (max everything) was 85-115. Without AA it goes +120FPS

(it's been a while since i've played)

In fact, BF3 will be one of the first native DirectX 11 games (maybe even the first one)


DX11 can fall back to DX10 hardware, but no support for DX9 and hence for WinXP

DX11 is just an updated version of what DX10 should've been. The only reason they have DX10 mentioned is because the consoles can support DX10, not DX11 (correct me if I'm wrong) :nutkick:

Hence why I said DX11 only, the API doesn't change, it's always and only running under DX11 API despite the fallback.

The 360 apparently has a DX9-ish API and the PS3 has a library that wraps the direct hardware access. They can do some similar tricks to what was exposed in DX10 because of the way they can access hardware directly / architectural differences that make it plausible.

One of their papers said that the DX11 compute shader lighting was the basis for the PS3 Cell version.

I agree.its spectacular looking indeed,though its not entirely realistic..that massive building which is just about to colapse after the earthquake,looks at least lets say 30 - 40,maybe even 50 meters wide,you can clearly see it when the soldier is shooting from the truck.it does have a full realistic feeling about how massive the building is.but when it starts to colapse,try to pause the video just before the screen goes black while the building is falling at him.If you manage to pause while have a perfect clear view on the rooftop of the colapsing building,it doesnt feel massive anymore,the roof looks like its like 5x5 metres..but I guess its just wrong scaling..hope they fix it,because if not,people wont piss in their pants while a building like that one colapsing nearby them..

EDIT:OK 50 metres was a guess bit over the top,but 30m looks valid
