Just wondering whether this rig will be able to max out red orchestra 2:

amd phenom 1055t hex (6) core @ 3.7ghz
8gb kingston blu ram 1600mhz
vtx3d ati 6950 2gb (gonna unlock/overclock to 6970)

if someone could give me an impression of how well it will run ro2 aswell as battlefield 3 or some other new games that would help a lot thanks :D
 
Resolution needed.

But to be honest, you're using one of the highest end cards available and a hex core... do you really need to ask if it will be able to max out a game?

1280x1024, well i was just a little bit unsure about it thats all, havent kept up with pc tech for years so didnt know how good a 6950 is, ordered one yesterday to replace ageing 8800gt, just trying to get an impression of its power :)
 
6 core @ 3.7ghz
8gb of fast ram
2gb 6950

Sorry, I think the rec specs to run on high is 7 cores, 9gb ram and a 3gb graphics card.. unlucky

At 1280x1024 you could still be running your 8800GT and get close to maxing the game.
 
well ive been playing it today and i get around 15fps on ultra and have to drop it to medium/low settings to get it to 45fps. its the beta though so im thinking the final version will run better. 6950 will turn up tommorow so should have no problem then.
 
Got the same card as you (see sig) - I was running the RO Beta with 'ultra' settings (1920*1080) and it was a bit of a struggle at times, i.e. it occasionally dipped below 30fps. I've dropped it down a notch and now it's playing very nicely. I've not bothered trying any tweaks or anything though.... will do that after the full-release.

hmm well i wont be playing at anywhere near that resoulution so mabye ill get better fps, whether i max it out or not i havent played a fps this good for years so as long as it runs smooth and looks ok ill be laughing :D
 
Well I play on "Ultra" settings at 1680x1050 with V sync on and shadows turned to medium (strongly advise this) and I get a steady 60fps although that's what im capped at!

Rig:
i7 930 @3.8ghz
6gb Corsair ddr3
GTX 560Ti

So you should be all good in the hood!
 
There's a possibility at such a low resolution you could get low GPU usuage or lower than your video cards maximum potential. You have a good CPU at a high clock speed so you may be ok.

I know on my second PC that I get low GPU usuage from a GTX 460 in most games because the screen for it is only 1366x768, even with an AMD Phenom II X4 clocked at 3.51 Ghz.

Looks like epeen waving to me. You've got a near top of the range PC there and you need to ask if it will run a game at max settings at the low res of 1280x1024? :eek:

Don't bother unlocking your 6950 to a 6970, it won't get that much gain and it's not worth the risk imo.
 
Is this out then?

Not in the country atm so can't tell but I thought the graphics on this were munt so there should be no probe maxing it

I'll be annoyed if there are, but saying that will I get this with bf and NBA due
