Earlier this month we checked out the beta version of Battlefield 3 to see how it played on a range of DirectX 11 graphics cards. The results were concerning as even the latest and greatest graphics cards struggled, especially those who planned to enjoy the game in all of its visual glory.Powerful single-GPU cards like the GeForce GTX 580 and Radeon HD 6970 failed to average 60fps using the high quality settings with MSAA disabled at 1920x1200. The 'Ultra' quality settings reduced frame rates to around 40fps. Even more troubling, the final and complete 'Ultra' graphics settings were not fully enabled on the beta, with many DX11 features still to come. On the upside, however, even on 'high' Battlefield 3 looked spectacular, with loads of jaw dropping visuals to keep you enthralled.
