Yeah people who upgrade every year are just the guys who can't stand other people having better tech then them....

True, to a extent, playing against gamers who have the latest and greatest will give them an advantage a lot of times. Console is more even across the board. I'm very surprised a 5 year old video card can play BF3.....

slap a 6870 in a 3.4ghz quad core and see if you can't run games 5 years from now

hell you could do it with the right dual core and limp along

or any i7

I have an i7 with a 27 inch lcd. Ish better look great while I am killing mother fuggers.

i have a 4 year old card thats been running battlefield 3 flawlessly. I don't why people feel like they have to always get to latest and greatest piece of pc tech when all you gotta do i remember to take care of your machine.

Good choice on splurging for the 6900 series Radeon, I'm going to be tossing in a 6970 (factory overclocked to 940mhz clock speed) into my setup pretty soon....

My wife needs a new card to play Diablo III so I'll grab the 2GB card for BF3 to completely max it out and drop my 6870 into hers....

I could not get 12 fps on my machine that is well taken care of.

So my new card came in, could not use it.

Ordered a new 700 watt power supply to replace the current one.

At this point I am considering just ordering a new case and motherboard as well because, hell, why not. At least I would be getting usb3.

Omg!!! Your post is from the future!!

Yep, and in 2014 your cock falls off... again.

lolololol

i asked what kind of power supply you had and you didn't answer

[Zod]

lol fuck if I knew

[Porn Shop Clerk]

oh then the answer is most likely 350w

new psu will stay with your future pcs though so its a nice investment. moreso than anything else i think.

really though, with all these "pc experts" chiming in, that should have been question #1

also a quality psu like corsair will be less likely to melt down and ruin your pc

I'm too lazy to ask questions like that. I just answer the question that is asked to me. Reactive not proactive :lol:....
