Are you going to upgrade because of ARMA 3?

@CTCoco

i7 2700k 3.9ghz (Cross server so it has part Xeon in it)
ATI radeon 6950 2gb DDR5
16gb @1600mhz DDR3
Three harddrives, all about half a gigabyte and old.
850 Watt Power supply
50gb Solid State Drive
Cooler Master case
WII and PS3 Setup for emulation.
Track IR 5 and a new keyboard and mouse
Everything else is built into my Intel motherboard, btw... just go with Intel... its more efficient than other ones.

i upgraded to GTX 680 2 months ago with ARMA 3 in mind

Almost done building my new rig. Just need to order the 670 GTX, some more fans, and probably a new monitor and I'm good to go.

I hope you know that ArmA III will force PhysX to run on the CPU for everyone. An NVIDIA card will not get you better performance with PhysX.

Unless they've since changed this, but I'm sure I would have heard.

It would be good to get official qualification about this. I too was going to go the NVidia route because of PhysX until it was pointed out about the CPU implementation. Sensible from a design point of view I suppose. I'm now more willing to go for an AMD 7970 Ghz edition than a 670 since benchmarks show it's significantly faster in Arma2.

For 10 FPS at normal/high settings

i have a way powerfull CPU and RAM so i don't care the card is good in other games as well plus i always roll with nvidia, never had an AMD\ATI card

There is nothing like way too powerful hardware when it comes to arma hehe

I'm somewhat in progress of upgrading but hearing the incredibly well made sounds in arma 3, I should want me some nice onkyo reciever and pair of jamo monitors. Darn it, too many excuses on where to spend lately

[gpha5e]

as far as i can judge by the E3 videos on tube, arma's going to be fast and robust, so we shouldn't be afraid

I will upgrade. Atleast sometime around when I know for sure what it'll take to run it smooth on high settings.

I wont do like I've done for all other titles. Just stick with the computer I have and run it on "decent" settings even if it bugs me out.

I want it all this time. ALL, I say.
