Battlefield 3 Preparation

BF3 may well become the new rig destroyer, but we won't know until the finished game is available.

Come tomorrow/Wednesday there may well be performance figures up for a hole range of configs.

Yeah, that's why I'm holding off until mid-week. Want to get some benches of the game 'out in the wild' so to speak. Seems a bit daft to base buying decisions on beta results when the full release is so soon.

Personally I will probably be going for the 560Ti and overclocking my Q6600 to 3.4Ghz (hopefully).

Sounds sensible. I'd suggest you also overclock the 560Ti just a little bit too, just to eek out a few more FPS. I'm running my Q6600 at 3.6/7Ghz and just overclocked my 6970 2Gb by about +30/40Mhz on Core and Mem. I don't plan on running Ultra, but I want to run High with little to no stutter if possible. :)
