At today's EA's E3 press conference, it was revealed that Battlefield 3 will have an open beta across all applicable platforms beginning this September....EA has confirmed that Battlefield 3 will be released on October 25, 2011 for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC.

and vids without presentation - awsome in 1080p and vids have proper audio

I'll definitely be playing.

What platform are people going for? I have a ps3 with on 40" Sony (3D) LCD LED and a good PC ([email protected]/6gb Ram/GTX 470 and twin 24" Samsung LED LCD).

I have been playing BF2 and MW/MW2 on the PS3 previously, but Im wondering if I should make the switch to PC instead =/

What sort of graphics card do you guys think it would take to handle BF3 on high/max settings? currently have an intel i7 2.67ghz cpu, 6gb ram (computer seems to recognize only 4gb??),ATI hd4890 graphics card, some gigabyte motherboard. dont know too much about computers.

The reason your computer is only reading 4gb ram is because you're running 32-bit Windows. You'll need 64-bit to make use of the 6gb you have

no kidding? its been pissing me off for years thinking i got ripped off

It was pissing me off too, having the pc recognize only 4th of ram. Time to grab that 64 bit version of windows.

The maximum amount of ram is actually theoretical:

2^32 = 4,294,967,296 ~ 4gb

2^64 = 1.844674407371e+19 ~ 18.4 billion gb

That's right, if we had unlimited ram space for our pc, we could theoretically have a maximum memory of just over 18 billion gb......... WTF?!?

Definitely need windows 7 x64 bit, otherwise you will only see even less than 4gb of ram.

Anyway, I'm thinking 6950 as a minimum for bf3 at 1920x1080.

anything less than that and you won't get absolute maximum.

They are making a new engine for this sure, but as if it won't get made properly which means even the slightly lesser than the highest hardware should make do just fine.

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
