  1. Also got my hands on BF3 a week ago thanks to VG. Now that I am bit more used to it, can play more teamworkish games. Username: Oldfishy

    New Computor?

    Quite a good setup. What I'd definitely suggest is buying a SSD. You don't have to buy a 320gb SSD to store everything, just get a 64GB, install win 7 and maybe some important programs that you need, which will make your windows reallllly fast. The rest of your stuff (games, progs) install into your 320GB HD. Because SSD's with high capacity cost hellalot. Also I would invest a bit more into the CPU, but this is up to you.
  3. If you want to make it acceptable for arma 2 then upgrading your video will pretty much be enough I guess. Half a year back when I had quite a shitty PC with 2gb ram, intel pentium 4, and HD4850 (I know the CPU made a really small bottleneck ;) then I was able to play it with about 10 fps. Considering your ram and cpu to be better, then video is most probably the one holding the game down. If you want to upgrade the PC to a level that upcoming games will run smoothly then you need to upgrade all 3 parts (not sure how much power you will need). If you are running win 7 then this will always occupy a bit more than 1GB of ram, so you have 2BG left for games, which is not enough. "My friend said you need to have the same RAM cards." He is right, RAM of the same type cooperate better with each other (same brand and size). Radeon HD 6850 is very good for its price, GeForce GTX 460 is also good. Not sure which you prefer more: radeon or geforse, although the price is basically the same, 6850 is a bit better. Both of these are better than the suggested GTX 550 and the cost is same for all three. I just recently (in winter) upgraded my PC to: i5 2500k, 8GB RAM and kept the hd4850 as it still holds on quite well and I can play pretty much any game with max graphics settings (1600x1200 screen). But I'd recommend upgrading RAM also. How many RAM sockets do you have? If you have 2 then 2x3 or 2x4 will keep you going for many many years. (2x4GB are more common I think) If you have any questions or suggestions, then I'd be more than happy to reply. Andres
  4. Have you played BF3? If so, then how would you compare them with each other?
  5. I didn't care for the prize, had too much fun just playing bullet car. But there is one, I wish to win and hope it gets fixed within 25 days, so no rush :)
  6. I have played many games including 12-seconds and none of my scores show on the page's leaderboard. The score gets submitted in the game and shows my rank, but never transfers to the leaderboard from where the winner will be picked. (Because of this didn't win the prize for bullet car). I am not sure if this is the right place for this topic, but hope this issue will be dealt with (looking forward to winning ARMA II :) )
