    you wount have much trouble running bf3 with that pc.

    bf3 requirments will be same as bc2. my pc is similar to yours, but slower and bc2 works fine on all stuff prety much max.

    i presume its some dell system? cant you upgrade it?

    i bet new gpu and psu will give you an edge on bf3.

    I can run Bad company no bother. Maybe i will upgrade and just sell off some parts. I build the pc myself its not a dell haha. I dont think i need to upgrade the PSU. But maybe a new GPU and do some overclocking on the processor

    If you are planning to upgrade I'd sell the CPU, Mobo and GPU. I'd guess you could get €150 to €180 for them going off current adverts.ie prices.

    An i5-2500k + a 6950 is the sweet spot for gaming at the moment imo.
