Damn it, I probably need to upgrade my GFX card. Too bad I'm too scared to change my GFX card, don't feel like destroying my computer :P

So happy I just ordered my new computer parts

I just upgraded to a 6970, if that won't do it I'll get another one for crossfire.

It's like the easiest part to change so you should have anything to worry about I was able to change mine when I was like 14 with no clue how computers worked. Just make sure you have a strong enough PSU.

You should be fine, they said that it's just slightly more demanding than BFBC2 when they released the system requirements. And I was able to max out BFBC2 on my 5770.

I just played the Beta and I got 120 FPS with this setup, vertical sync on since my screen is on 120hz This game is freakin awesome!
