Battlefield 3 video card....

Yeah people who upgrade every year are just the guys who can't stand other people having better tech then them....

True, to a extent, playing against gamers who have the latest and greatest will give them an advantage a lot of times. Console is more even across the board. I'm very surprised a 5 year old video card can play BF3.....

I have an i7 with a 27 inch lcd. Ish better look great while I am killing mother fuggers.

Good choice on splurging for the 6900 series Radeon, I'm going to be tossing in a 6970 (factory overclocked to 940mhz clock speed) into my setup pretty soon....

My wife needs a new card to play Diablo III so I'll grab the 2GB card for BF3 to completely max it out and drop my 6870 into hers....

So my new card came in, could not use it.

Ordered a new 700 watt power supply to replace the current one.

At this point I am considering just ordering a new case and motherboard as well because, hell, why not. At least I would be getting usb3.

oh then the answer is most likely 350w

new psu will stay with your future pcs though so its a nice investment. moreso than anything else i think.

really though, with all these "pc experts" chiming in, that should have been question #1

also a quality psu like corsair will be less likely to melt down and ruin your pc

    • Bryce has been in the NFL 3 years and still looks like a very mediocre QB. Most games are nothing but mediocre plays with a highlight reel every now and then.  He is a very INCONSISTENT QB and it’s very fustrating. He does not deserve a 5th year option, even though the Panthers and all the dumb asses in the front office will give it to him.
    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
