Battlefield 3 Final Release GPU/CPU Benchmarks

[QUOTE="mitu123"]

[QUOTE="GD1551"]

Nvidia's garbage drivers is forcing me to use older ones. I should be fine though if those benchies are any indication. Down with the shadows and AA up with the FPS.

Daym yo even a 580 can't max this, and at such a low res... I'd feel kind of silly if I spent so much on a card and saw these resultsistuffedsunny

CPU benchmarks released, updated in first post. ATI 11.10 preview drivers increase FPS by as much as 2.

TC I need AA to get rid of those pesky jaggies.:P

Are there any CPU benchmarks? I want to know how a X4 955 and a 6850 will perform.wolverine_97

My phenom beats an i7 2600k? :shock:

I told all the neighsayers that graphics cards could run this maxxed. It was ludacris to think they couldnt. I'm glad I was right.

if it were a GPU bottleneck all the CPUs would be performing EXACTLY the same, which they aren't.

Maybe the game just favors Phenoms...

A 2.6 Ghz i7 920 beats a 3.3 Ghz 2500k by 1FPS, if that doesnt tell you the differences are based on other things then I dont know what does. You DONOT get "exactly" the same results with a GPU bottleneck, when CPU's running at vastly different speeds and having different architectures are running within 1-2 FPS of each other then obviously it's a GPU bottleneck. Now why even that 1-2 FPS difference exists at all can be for many reasons, we cannot be sure exactly why but logically we know it's not anything to do with the CPU itself.

The world didn't end because an older CPUedged outa current CPU, it's not a big deal...They're all performing well.

Then it is not a GPU bottleneck smart guy.

Run the game with the same CPU's at 10x7 with DX9 low settings and it would get pretty clear how much of a bottleneck it was.

bottleneck literally means that is slows everything down to the same speed, I have seen times when this is true and you literally get exactly the same performance when there is a bottleneck.

Looks like I'm going to get a second 2gb 560 Ti afterall, because 4xAA makes all the difference in the world when you only sit about a foot away from a 24" screen...superclocked

I like how when Intel gives better performance its: "OMG TEN PERCENT FASTER HOLY COW HAHAHAHAHAHAH!"

And then when AMD gives better performance its: "10% is clearly a GPU bottleneck" and "10% is clearly within the margin of error"

awesome

[QUOTE="Chris_53"] Your spending money on a second GPU, just for antialiasing ? superclocked

70+ FPS with every single setting turned to on or max at 1080p. woooo hooo. I thought i would have to upgrade my PC, but fortunately i can now wait another year and save my money.

You have a 4.1ghz i7 and a pair of GTX 480's in SLI. You thought you would "have to upgrade?" :?

To be fair, Dice did say you needed SLI'd 580's to max it out.

You had to know they were full of it.

If Dice said that Santa Claus existed you guys would have probably believed him too.

Maybe to them maxed out is everything max at 120 FPS?

Max means 4xAA dont know why people forget that, you dont need AA fine and all but you arent maxing it if you cant play at 4xAA.

From the 1080p chart it's pretty clear that even a GTX 580 cannot max out BF3. 38 average and 33 minimum is not really enough for such a fast paced FPS.

When intel takes the lead it's generally much more then that.

Gambler_3

4x is not max.

Max means most.

And there is more than 4x AA.

Which means it cannot be most if there are things that are greater than it.

Therefore not max.
