Converting AMD rig to Intel

I've played BF3 for hours without a crash so I doubt it would be voltage and fps in other games is fine. Maybe I just expected too much from the card. Only paid just over £200 so can't really expect it to max one of the most intensive games.

Well you do have an unlocked card with higher clocks and shaders so it should be performing next to or higher than a gtx 570.


Have you tried the card at stock i.e. on it's original 6950 bios?
 
opstrat did you see a good improvement?

Yeah I tried the card stock and it was even worse performance. I think I just expected too much from the card tbh.
 
I used to play on high with my gtx 460 1gb though so effectively I've spent £130 quid after the sale of my 460 for a card that can only run it on the same settings. ATI drivers are whack, I get extreme flickering on distance objects in BF3 too, it happened with my 460 but not as bad.
 
there ain't no way your going to get a 'substantial' boost in BF3 going from a Phenom II to a 2500K since its so graphics bottlenecked, think your looking at the wrong weak link to be honest...the only thing that ever seems to make a difference in real-world BF3 gaming is the graphics card, so that is your problem.
