I would have preordered.. if it ran a bit better.. I'll hold out for BF3/if I get a new computer.
Wait, as in actually physically have it?
In that case, I might be getting mine soon

Yeah does this mean you just pre ordered it, or you just received your copy?

I will certainly be playing BC2 on my i5 430 & 5650 notebook
Your thoughts, insights, and musings on this matter intrigue me
I tried it after the patch. Got about 5 fps more. Still not really playable. (E5200)FloppY_ wrote:

omg E5200... why are you not using the E8500 you are currently frying (I read the tech thread )?Finray wrote:

Also: A E8500 and 4870 512mb will grant you 60-80 fps

Heres my specs:
5770 vapor x 1gb
2gb ram
3.0 c2d
This setup ran MW2 single/multi and crysis on all max settings at 1980x1020 no lag with no OC, so im expecting it to play BC2 very well
and yes i mean preorder

E8500 @ 4.1 GHz (going higher soon)

8800GT (GTX260 soon)
Should be able to run it smoothly

Suuuuuuure... Hate to break your dreams mate but 20 fps is NOT smooth...

On a system with the following:
Q6600 @ 3.1
4 GB 1066 DDR2 RAM
GTX 260 Black Edition (@701 mHz core, 1170 mHz RAM)
What is the most likely bottleneck for BC2?
I'd like this game (and eventually BF3) to run seamless on all high settings, and as of right now it doesn't.
(Not really trying to hijack the thread, but this doesn't seem to warrant a new post in Tech.)

I would say CPU, but this game is supposed to utilize all cores...-CARNIFEX-[LOC] wrote:

No real bottleneck tbh, got plenty of overhead on both CPU and GPU.
CPU.
In a console, they have CPUs the size of jumbo jets, and GPUs the size of ants. It is generally the opposite in PCs. When a game is made for PC, it is optimized so the GPU gets most of the work. When a game is made for a console, and ported over the PC, such is the case with BC2, it's the other way round.
Hopefully, consoles won't get BF3 so it won't be ruined for us.

Does Frostbite engine utilize nvidia PhysX? Because if it doesn't, I'm pissed. Destructible environment goodies, but my secondary card doesn't get to play!

I ordered mine a couple of weeks ago. Some of my friends wanted me to get MW2 for Christmas, I held off, wanted this instead. I think I chose wisely.
Oh yeah, played the beta with an E7500, 9800GT, and 3gig of ram with no problems.

E6600 @ 3.0, 8800gt, 3 gigs ram on xp. Ran on medium @ 1024. avg 50fps but with some drops down to 15. Gonna get this for sure.Canin wrote:
