BF:BC2 Benchmarks. Where are they?

jimmy_lazers · 20 Mar 2010 at 21:37

It's been out ages now yet I can't find any benchmarks for it. Does anyone know of any? That U.S overclockers one doesn't count.

its more cpu than graphics card.loads will cry dualcores are fine but the game really needs a quad . reasonable cards can handle game.

not many except it but it even states on recommended specs quad core and still they argue

I can run it maxed on my 4.1ghz dual core

Once you get above ~3.2ghz on dual core you'll be fine. If you've got a lower cpu you'll need a quadcore.

Today I saw a system with a 2.4ghz dual core get upgraded to 3.3.ghz dual core. The difference was night and day. Just an FYI.

dualcores are fine.

Runs perfectly on my 4.3 E8600 and either GTX280 or 4870X2.

Brilliant performance on my E8400 @4ghz and overclocked 5850. Usually in the 60 fps region but it can drop to the 30-40's in the action.

I guess my idea of "brilliant" will differ from others tho

1900x1200, 2xAA btw.

I ran it on Medium at 1680x1050, with an 8800GT and E6400 running at stock for a few days before my new rig turned up and I never had any issues with it.

I'd like to see a CPU performance test really. Suprised no one has done one yet.

My Q9650 (4.2ghz) constantly has core 4 maxed out at 100% & I think its holding me back...

Nah its normal to have one core maxed in most modern games. It definitely isn't holding you back.

I've got a spare Q6600 that does 3.3, so I might do a comparison run against my 4.3 C2D.. I honestly think the 4.3 dual will beat the 3.4 Quad though

I get 45-60fps depending on action volume...

Bah I definitely need a new Comp. I hate you all. Especially you Pookie, and you Khaan. Traitors.

mrk · 27 Mar 2010 at 11:09

Why me?

Why!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

jimmy_lazers · 27 Mar 2010 at 11:14

How long have you spent with your old game?? I see you cavorting with your new fancy, multi-threaded, deformable terrain game, without a care in the world. You may think you are happy, but answer me this, what have you puked on lately?

mrk · 27 Mar 2010 at 11:18

I puke on things that need puking on, ugly babies for instance!

wragh · 27 Mar 2010 at 12:26

pretty high specs, but then again the game is amazing. i doubt i'll be able to play it on mine, which is a shame as i'v played every version of bf since 1942 came out back in the day!
