I'm usually hovering at around 130-200 fps but you don't want to see how ugly the game looks with those settings 
Im running it at the highest settings, 4x aa, 16x af, ive even ran it on 32x aa with minimal performance hit. Still a fantastic looking game. I think that bf3 looks a bit dark in places, the contrast, textures and shadows etc make seeing people pretty difficult.

6970 and 2500k @ 4.6ghz here. Lowest possible settings at 2560x1440
You guys are making me want to re-install. 
I was starting to get a bit bored of it before 3 came along.
I reckon a poll is in order, or is it a given the majority prefer 3, over BC2?
I loved BC2, though BF3 has so much more depth and room for actions; which is why I like it, therein lies its problems aswell though, getting that depth balanced and working smoothly must be tough.

If bf3 could be patched to how it was before btk, i think it would be a lot better than it currently is. I do like it, but im not feeling the same love for it at the present as i first had. My k/d ratio is dire at the moment due to the shoddy hit detection, (my connection probly doesnt help much). Im not a great player by any stretch, as i play for enjoyment, but in bfbc2 hit reg was a lot better. And i enjoyed every round, no matter how many times i got killed. Im getting a bit frustrated at times in bf3, especially when i see someone first, empty half a clip into them, then i die from a single shot from them. This and dying once youve got round a corner or into cover.
I remember in BC2, I saw you as about equal ability as me, as far as I remember we'd get similar scores in game. I was a bit better of course.
Really not seeing the problem with hit detection any worse that BC2; actually it did seem easier to adjust in BC, if you weren't getting hit markers just go a bit before or after the target and they would show.
I would say that 9-10 in BF3 if you get the drop on someone you win.

Dont you go blowing your own trumpet now lol.
Yep, going before or after the target helps a good deal, reminds me off a line from full metal jacket about shooting women and children, "you just gotta lead em a little bit more".

I don't know how people say that 30fps is playable in BF3. I was averaging 30-40 fps and it felt disgustingly laggy. 50fps was the minimum I could play at before it was smooth.
BC2 feels much nicer to play, although I have only played BF3 for an hour or two due to the fps lag.

30fps for me wouldnt be enough, i disabled sli and tried bf3 with a single card. Had to run with a mixture of medium and high. With sli i can run ultra with 2x msaa, ssao, 16xaf. Bfbc2 felt pretty good as well on a single card as i played it on one 470 before adding the second a few weeks later. Fair play though to dice and nvidia, both games scale very well with sli.
