BF4 Tech Specs-Annoying

[buster108]

I find it very annoying that I do not reach the recommended requirements for Battlefield 4. I have
Intel Core i5-3570K CPU @ 3.40GHz, GTX 770 2bg, Windows 7.

Now I find that because ,probably Microsoft payed EA some money, I have windows 7 64 bit .....I don't meet the recommended requirements because I need windows 8 64 bit. As if there is any difference....really? Come on. Well...... no game changing difference and then the other reason is that I need 3gb video ram. OK firstly I have a GTX 770 A BEAST of all that is insane and then I'm not like running a two monitor setup here.

All I'm saying is, will be able to run battlefield 4 @60 fps on ultra right? I can settle for 50fps+

Actually Windows 8 does have better performances with games. And if its pissing you off you can turn off the "made for touch" part of the Windows and just have weird looking Windows 7 😀 I am still using Windows 7 but im planning on upgrading to 8 (if there is no info for the better one cumming out)

yeah it runs it better i guess if you call maybe a frame or 2 better (and that isnt on every game either) but then everything else on 8 functions horribly there is a reason microsoft had to pull 7 off of store shelves (because they knew they couldnt sell a box of crap labeled windows 8) espcially once people could compare the two.

I didnt actually say that because i think that, it has been benchmarked and its not 2 frames it was 5-10 more FPS.

im not sure where at on microsofts website you found that but by most actual user accounts it seems a very slight AVERAGE FPS difference look at most of the reviews and compare the big named websites to the ones done by people on youtube.. or try it yourself (if you haven't already) i have its slight frame increase it gives on some games isn't worth the hassel so i upgraded to windows7 and never looked back. i find it funny they had to send out an update to make it so people could log into a normal desktop instead the the weird block app crap.. seems like it becoming more and more like windows 7

and why wouldnt they try to revert it back into windows 7...it was perfection in its self. sure no OS has no faults but damn... it was/is goooood

Actually they are, now you can go and turn off the touch screen thingy so you can use it like normal windows 7

ah fair enough but it will still have some windows 8 annoyances

i just see windows 8 as a failed attempt by microsoft they wanted to all but force consumers to use it so we can go into the app generation and be able to use tablets and pcs and probably phones flawlessly together but yet now they realize that hey maybe that wasnt such a good idea because if someone wanted something to function like a tablet well just maybe they would of bought a tablet... not a pc.. im very curious if windows 9 is going back to the good old roots or are they just going to try and plant another weed....

Im expecting from "Windows 9" to be something like Windows 7, its an upgrade by any way but it still feels like you are at home. I think that people who are coming from Windows XP are going to get lost in Windows 8, even Win 7 users get lost in 8.

windows 9 needs to be good, because then they'll be following their pattern of good then bad then good then bad, OS's.

Well maybe if they start thinking smart which they aren't going to maybe we would get good Windows but the only way for them to create new good Windows is to go low on money so they need to make something good to earn moneyz and then they will make the new Good Windows

I really cant tell you that but you should have 30-40 FPS on ULTRA in normal fights and 20-35 in big fights, on high 40-50 on small and 30-40 on BIG fights so you get it the lower setting it is the more FPS you get. Around 10-15 every time your setting go lower.

yh i get 50-70 fps in beta on ultra m8.....

Well again its beta the graphics are not final and if its the same thing as BF3 beta then you probably know what will happen. If not then BF3 beta worked much better then final and most of the updates fucked it up even more.
