(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); hello fellow battlefielders!

After hard working i finally got enough money to upgrade my pc so i can finally play me some battlefield 3 on the PC Happy, but i got a problem my advisor tool shows me that i need a new proccesor and i'm thinking about buying the AMD Athlon II X4 640. Does anyone uses this CPU and can you tell me if it works with battlefield 3, if not what CPU are you using? Further more i need a new graphics card. What graphics card are you guys using? also my advisor tells me that i need more memory :s but i don't know what this means because i know i aint got enough space on my HDD but it says something else, has that something to do with my CPU? You must login or register to view this content.

thanks!

p.s.
sorry for my englisch :s

update:

i found out what it meant by memory, it was my RAM so i have to upgrade aswell, after some research i got on this:

CPU: AMD athlon II X4 640
GPU: Club 3D Radeon HD 7770
RAM: increase of 2GB


do you use any of these in you're pc to play battlefield? and what are your experiences with them?

That upgrade is terrible and you still won't be able to play anything.

Try an i3 2120, make sure you have a socket 1155 motherboard.
An AMD 6870.
And just buy 8GB of RAM, its cheap.
In total that'll cost about 350euro.

The processor is shit.
The GPU is extremely low end, not for gaming.
And RAM is just extremely cheap, its not worth upgrading 2GB. Get rid of your current RAM and chuck in some new, 1600Mhz DDR3 RAM.

The processor isn't shit it's quad-core 3.00 ghz and it is able to run battlefield 3! The gpu will make me able to play bf3 on ultra quality look it up on youtube and google and i have a very old pc (windows 95) and it can only handle a DDR2 card and with special, pins

I know what I'm talking about. Don't believe me if you don't want to. But you'll regret it once you buy the parts.

It can probably run it, just very poorly. Most PCs can run BF3, but most can't get over 15FPS either.

Hurah!
best choice 6950 oc 200 euro and it can overclock to 6970, so u saved 100 euro's.gtx 570 is pretty much the same as 6970, but some games 6970 has more fps.
