Looks great but it's a shame I only have 1GB vram on my 5870
Don't worry. High settings will be fine. Just not ultra.
I am in the same boat as you, will only start worrying if it is unplayable. If not, wait for 7 series.

I'll be trying to run it on a 4 year old PC with a 2 1/2 year old graphics card, wish me luck!

Afterburner said it was dx11 as well.
its DX11 with some features turned off.
I had to push the voltage on 580GTX from 1025 to 1050 for the game to work at Ultra settings without crashing, and this crash happens only with DX11.
580GTX voltage with DX11 @:
DEHR: 1088 (China maps)
Crysis2: 1050 : example http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvIViG43Z6M
BF3 beta: 1050
Sorry to quote an image, but why is there 5 green name tags + yourself?Yet on the minimap the helicopters are blue?!
The helis will be blue because the pilot isnt the squad member, your guy would be one of the passengers.
lufo (left heli) is clearly in the squad, but theres people clearly visable as squadmates who arent in the 4 listed squad players.
1 possible theory, its 4 man squads, but badly edited/proof-checked footage. Does seem odd though. The other theory would be that it was test footage, they tried 6 man squads but felt 4 was better (most of us would strongly disagree) however that doesnt explain why it doesnt show 6, would have thought they'd add the other 2 names.
On screen the SL is DrdoExaminafus, whereas the squad list shows it to be NokDaSnok, which again suggests 2 bits of footage merged into 1 to create a busier looking scene which happens to be technically inaccurate.
That specific bit of footage isnt exactly new though is it? As a scene, it was there in the original trailer iirc, but seemed as though it was going to be part of a cut-scene or scripted SP element.

It was in DX11. The msi afterburner info clearly shows it as D3D11. 5850 card here.
