What do you guys think system specs for BF3?

Min requirements at least 7 times that of what it took to play crysis on high.

Minimum will def be Core 2 Duo. Nothing below

Minimum:
Recommended:
quad core or 3ghz dual core (hoping for multithread support :nod:)
3gb RAM

That would be sweet with the Core i7 chips, like playing on 8 cores, not to mention soon to be released hyperthreaded dual core chips by intel notebook . Sucks that Ghostbusters ended up not supporting hyperhread (like Pentium 4 HT).

Re: What do you guys think system specs for BF3?

My prediction:

Minimum:

Intel Core 2 Duo/Core 2 Quad/Phenom X3/X4
2GB
ATI 3850/Nvidia 8600GT

Recommended:

Intel Core 2 Duo 3.0Ghz+/Core 2 Quad 2.66Ghz+
4GB
ATI 4850/Nvidia 9800GT

Don't forget it will be on the Frostbite Engine.

I wouldn't be surprised if it supported PhysX. They did it with Mirror's Edge and Frostbite is a physics heavy engine I imagine.

Re: What do you guys think system specs for BF3?

I wonder how much of an improvement from Frostbite plus PhysX we are gonna see. Consoles were very limited hardware-wise, could see some good stuff. Pretty building collapses!

I know its a long shot, but imagine setting explosives on key structure points on something like Kubra dam and watching it collapse Wonder how many kills you could get?

Mirrors Edge runs on the UT3 engine . Physics is a must whatever helps to make the game run faster.

I remember when BF2 hit the scene there was a GPU that could run it at max. I hope the game forces me to build a super computer.

Maybe a 64bit OS

Doesnt really matter. I really dont know why there is 32 bit vista/win7. There are no compatibility issues whatsoever. Its faster and you can use 4gb+ of ram.

The business world is why we don't all move to 64bit. Them and their legacy hardware/specially designed software packages

woot i have w7 64 on pre-order.

Re: What do you guys think system specs for BF3?

BF3 will be specifically optimized for i7 HT so that's what u'll be needing.

Re: What do you guys think system specs for BF3?

I dont think the requirements will be that high as far as quad core or 64bit OS. It would have to be the latest low end system a Best Buy would be selling in a couple years.

I would say Chewie has a very good spec idea with the video cards being a little higher.
