and on nvidia panel i leave all as default? i got the latest drivers 306 something
and what about field of view?

i was using high setings and field of view 70 and noticed some statering in graphics.
i changed field of view on 90 and was much smoother isnt that odd?

i get a range from 36(one or 2 times in a game)  to 100 fps with average about 55-60
you think its good?

Hi Maniac,

The current latest driver from Nvidia is still recommended for BF2 & BF3, any majors change in game setting or in NVCP ?

Thanks

I also uploaded the Precision clock settings I am currently using. Voltage is at stock the only thing I changed from default was GPU and Mem.

I get a benchmark score on Heaven 3.0 which I have sent an attachment so you can see this too.

Now I had my cpu overclocked to 4.6 with voltage set too 1.45 and the computer was completely stable with temps and all and didn't get a blue screen. I went back to optimized defaults and I will tell you why.....

My internet connection when working at 100% I get 16 to 17Mbps down and a ping of anywhere between 25 & 45 on non peak hours and I try playing during these hours to have the best game play.

What I am trying to figure out is while I am in game my hit detection is just horrible with my current settings and as you can see I have a computer well good enough to play BF3.

My in game settings I have sent a screen shot as well.

One thing I have wondered also where is the best spot to put your Network Smoothing factor setting at? I have read that most say adjust it to what ever the ping is on the server you are playing on? ANy suggestions on that?

Sorry I know this is kind of long but I have tried to explain as much as I possibly can for you. Any other questions you might need from me just let me know.

  Thanks and love your Guide and expertise you contribute to us BF3's Also sorry I put this thread in the wrong place the first time so sorry for that.

PS : Also I notice on your rig you are only running two cards and you are using the 3way sli connector. Is that the way I should be running my two 670's with the 3way sli connector and not the single connector sli? That is the one I am using at the moment the single SLI connector.

 Here are the photos you suggested





As for the internet connection it is Broadband and my package, Ha I said Package, is 16Mbps.

I use a NETGEAR Router WNDR4500 N900 wireless router. I share one other connection of which most of the time I am not sharing bandwidth with my roommate. The hook up is wired and the wireless is disabled at all times.

Thanks for helping me Maniac and I really hope you can help me with making BF3 more enjoyable.

Welcome to the EVGA forums

I am extremely busy today with workmen in the household.
I will respond completely to your post later tonight when things calm down around here. Until then would it be possible for you to get your screenshots hosted (I use ImageShack ) so that I can review them.
Also, please post more detail on the "type" of internet connection you have (Cable, DSL, Wireless), and any routers/wireless sharing in your home.

I will be back tonight around 9pm PST and will fully review and respond to your posting then bro

Hi,
Recently I got the flickering( flashing scene) in infinity scene while playing BF3, but when I turn on vsync it's gone but frame drops around 50fps ( without vsync on it's average 150fps). Everything is on hight in game setting, latest drver 306.23. Any suggestions?
Thanks

Just went through the setup guide for my current setup:
3930k i7 @4.0GHz
16gb ram
EVGA GTX 580 3 Gb
Running off SSD
1080p 24"

I got far better results, good work! I did find I needed at least 2xmsaa when used with HBAO to avoid crawling of textures (chain link/ trees) in the distance. Vsync off helped with frame rates obviously but I hate tearing..

My real question is, I am upgrading to a GTX 680 4Gb classy today and will have a 2560x1440 display soon as well. Are there any tips for that high a res? And was there anything useful in the advanced section that you never finished?

Great work btw maniacvvv

hello I'm having some really weird stuff going on with my game. 
If you look at the images below you will see this very annoying haze glitch that randomly came about along with some other annoying things that make my in game visuals look way out of whack. here is the funny part,  I was running an EVGA gtx 570 that I bought back in June that ran fine all summer. So when I noticed this a few weeks ago I figured my card had gone bad even though I hadn't OC'ed it or anything. I tried updating my drivers and re installing the game but still no luck. So I gave in and spent 300 bucks on a new 660ti 2GB. This is what has me lost..I put the card in and did a fresh OS install and 3 weeks and 320 bucks later still no luck. Im still getting the exact same graphical issues. I am running your NVCP settings and in game I run a mix of high and ultra with no ssao or Hbao and only high Post AA. When I turn up MSAA the haze gets worse and textures look even more odd looking. and lowering the settings doesn't help. Like I said before this I've run the game fine as long as I've had it. And its up to date with all DLCs. I'm currently on the latest nvidia drivers and the rest of my hardware is more then enough. 
AMD Phenom II x4 955 at 3.9 ghz
8GB DDR3
ASUS sabertooth 990FX mobo 
700W psu 
500GB caviar blue WD HDD 
Win 7 64bit 
CM 960 II advanced case running 5 fans 
any help would be greatly appreciated on getting this fixed. I'll give any needed info 

Thanks! 


EDIT*** I guess I cant post the links to the screenshots yet
