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.
We configured the game to run on three 24 inch monitors at 5760×1080. We also dropped the Texture quality from ultra to high.
Not much difference in regards to the average frame rate although we noticed that the Asus Maximus V Formula system seemed to suffer less from bandwidth issues at this resolution, improving on the minimum framerate significantly.
mega stuff. thanks!
I have a view on this which might not prove popular.
I think this motherboard is very expensive for Z77. Reason? Its fine with X79 or Xeon motherboards with quad channel etc, but this is £250 for a mainstream platform? great product as always from ASUS, but I wouldnt pay this for Z77 motherboard. £200 would be my limit.
This is their X79 Rampage Extreme IV for the Z77 platform, right?
What a stunning board, great review too. Love it! ive an asus mobo and i love it to bits. so easy to work inside.
Lovely motherboard, I was tempted to buy this a week ago and bought an MSI one at the same time. Quite happy with my decision, im using a 3570K @ 4.6ghz
This is perfect for a typical system with a 2500k/3570k + 7850 or 650 ti. Would actually be better than using a higher wattage psu as it would peak at around 50 percent load when gaming.
