Good thing I have the 3GB edition of the GTX 580 in SLI. This game should run like a breeze.

It'll be for MSAA, just turn it down to 4 and you'll be fine.
3 gigs of Vram eh? hopefully I'll get by with 2 until the next round of cards come along

BF4's requirement is not that far from BF3. I hope my GTX560Ti can still manage medium settings 1080p...

3GB and the 7870? That can't be right...
It's more like 7970 or GTX680/780.

Yeah, it's cutting really close but it's still enough for 1080p.

True that. I already can't max out certain games because of the lack of vRAM on my GTX 680. I regret buying it so early, I should have waited for a 4GB model.

What resolution are you running, what games, at what settings? I'd be interested to know.

I currently us a gtx 660ti and run BF3 @ 1080p full ultra @ 60fps, Vram never goes past 1.5gb or 82% on mem controller load on any of the 64MP maps.
