According to EA, Battlefield 3 garnered 3 million pre-orders by the day of its release. It is unknown at present whether these figures are worldwide or just for the US. The pre-order total makes it “the biggest first-person shooter launch in EA history”, according to the publisher. The engine is beautiful on the PC and very demanding of the partnering hardware.
No problems powering this engine at 1080p with the high image quality settings. Around the same performance as the AMD HD7970.
delicious. well worth the money. AMD must be worrying at this price…..
Im waiting for 660, it should be under £200 and hopefully much better value, like the 460/560.
Thats a really good price. they were close to £300 when I saw the overclocked models, last time. wonder if they will drop to £230 before christmas.
I hear these cards aren’t selling well. I think the price is still too high for gamers in general.
I own this card and I have OCed it a little higher than the displayed “Maximum” OC’s. I’ve managed to get a very stable 130MHz core and 140MHz memory boost from the stock clocks. (Using MSI Afterburner)
Hi Vincent, nice one. You got a good card 🙂
