Im currently in the process of building a new Computer for Bf3, only game i can see myself playing for awhile(i rarely game as much as i used to) So this is the current rig i have decided to buy(No cooler yet, still deciding Click here to help me (Just links to my other thread)
So with BF3 releasing its specs, should i drop my card down to a 560 or a 6950? and get a 2gb card...? :shrug: (I want to run BF3 lag free on high settings)

Wouldn't mind saving some cash, as i will be traveling to europe mid way next year for awhile. So any cash i can save will be a bonus.

if you want it on at least high settings i would stick with a 570. the rumor that has been going around is that all the demos and videos seen have been ran on a 570. except one time when they ran it on a single 580 because they didn't want to take any chances. all and all you wont be sad you got the 570 i think.
