So I'm running this:

i7-2600k @ 3.4GHz
16GIG RAM DDR3 1600
GTX 680 FTW+ 

Anyone wanna wager a guess on what specs I'd be able to run BF4 on?

Well Dice revealed BF4 running a Radeon 7990 but that was at 3K res if I remember correctly. If you run BF3 maxed, you have nothing to worry about

Ubisoft games always do that. By launch it won't look nearly as good as the initial showing, just like Watch Dogs

Ben-Buja

Watch Dogs on PS4 got it the worst:

1280x-1

 

Is it me or is this lacking AF? One would think next gen consoles would easily be powerful enough for AFx16 in all games.

One thing that shot isn't missing is AF, you can easily see it. Road texture up the hill are not a blur fest.

Consolites trying to rationalize subpar frame rates. Movies aren't filmed at 24 fps because it's magically better than higher frame rates. It was minimized to keep costs down and has become a standard.

No, like i said the refresh rate of projector based theaters is based on 24 fps and 48 fps, anything in between would not function. monitors and TVs can display images at 30 and 60 fps because their refresh rate allows it, 120hz displays are also capable of displaying native 24 fps.

No actually he is completely right on that, 24fps was to keep costs down and because of its wide spread use has since become the standard. Funny when people say its the cinematic experience, more like people are just used to it. I was unaware real life moved at 24fps.

Crysis 3 development Bullshot model like the TC screens versus actual ingame models. There is a downgrade though they hold up well.

If you think those character models will look the same ingame TC prepare to be dissapointed, though they will still look great.

It puzzles me why Nvidia has been kicking AMD's butt in the computer market. AMD's designs are much, much more efficient than Nvidia's. You get more bang for your buck with AMD. Nvidia's cards are big and dumb. They lack any elegance. Look at Titan. Does 4.5 tflops but is in the neighborhood of $1000. Then you've got AMD's Radeon 7970 Ghz edition at just a little less in tflops but half the price! No way is Titan twice as good. PC gamers consistently choosing to pay so much more for only marginal gains in performance makes no sense to me.

Wickerman777

AMD are just as bad when the Radeon 7000 series released and the 5000 before that the prices where just as much as Nvidia. Once Nvidia release their competing cards only then do AMD drop there prices and not cause they want to, but because they have no choice.

 

AMD designs being more efficient is also untrue. Both Nvidia and AMD have hit and misses. The 5800Ultra hot, hungry and under powered. The Radeon 2900XT the same. And more upto date from Nvidia the 480. With this release of cards the Green team use less power and run cooler.

Butthurt? While posting record profits? While AMD hemorrhage money. If it wasn't for the purchase of ATi would they be in an even worse state?

How? You won't be playing an Unreal game that looks as good as the PS4 version with your sh1tty rig

What exactly is his rig ?

Was about to ask the same question.

NVIDIA confirmed this ran on a single GTX 680.

Link.

Was reading through some of the comments and someone brought up a good point. ( Quoc Anh Do ^@Nvidia Geforce: that still doesn't explain why it ran so smoothly on a single GTX 680. Even the most optimised games currently out on the market on max settings still glitch and jerk every now and then on 1920x 1080 even with tri GTX 680s.) That's a bit overkill tri 680's but I still agree to an extent a single gtx680 can experience slowdown on games like crysis 3 maxed and larger maps online on BF3 (NVIDIA GeForce; On many levels refining an engine or a piece of software is just as difficult as designing certain aspects of hardware. We are seeing a massive leap in engine advancements with UE4 and the way it works with GeForce hardware. The industry is on the verge of a breakthrough in visuals and it is incredibly exciting for us all to have the chance to see it.) Looks as though moving away from old Api's like previous versions of DirectX to native DX11 is allowing these current cards to finally flex there muscles

It looks good but has some framerate problems. The PC version is certainly a lot better both graphically and performance wise. Although that is to be expected considering it was using a 680GTX and whatever else.APiranhaAteMyVa
Looks good so far but yep def performance issues when everything starts collapsing inside the fire demon/knights tower. Hopefully still optimising? We shall see.
