G'day OC3D

I like your videos and reviews, and the forum seems good and active.

Starting to get the hardware upgrade itch, but really just biding my time putting some cash together.

Main bits of my old (can't play bf4) rig
780i ftw
Q9550
2 X 280s
Pcpower&cooling silencer 750 quad

Welcome fella, I would normally be happy to see a 780 in the spec list..... just not when its an Nvidia chipset board lol

G'day Welcome to the forums

you say 'wont play bf4' but tbh that looks like it will play bf3 ?

If it will play bf3, it should play bf4 they have apparently 'optimized' it to run a little better on stuff (apparently)

 

[TheNewNormal]

Haha, yes would love to trade in my 780i for a real 780

It will play bf3, with some settings turned down. CPU usage tops out before the GPU - I'm only at 3.3 so my next project is to see how far the northbridge can go.

Good news about the optimisation. I've only seen the bf4 videos which look really good, suppose I assumed it was beyond me (or just a reason to upgrade).

Thanks for the welcomes

"so they say" I wouldn't put an actual monetary bet on it at this stage. It is being published by EA after all...
