I know this is not bf3 but man i never realize how beautiful BF2 can look if you look at in slow motion. This is still the game i played the most on my pc and is also the only game that prevent me from completing my other list of games.

6850 CF should do the trick for high...probaby not ultra settings but that's like $250
if you wanna SLI 580GTX that's at least $750...overkill

Can anyone here recommend upgrades for this game that will run 1920 x 1080? looking for high to max settings...

My current setup that I built for SC2:
Core i7 930 @ 3.4 GHz
4GB of ram, that used to be 6GB when i first installed it
Radeon 5770

I'm guessing to run the required setting i'd just need to grab a 6970? or would a 6950 be enough?

not a bad idea to stick another 4GB ram
6950 should be good for med-high...as for 6970 over the 6950...you'll have to wait until people benchmark their cards with beta testing in the next few weeks to see if it's worth the extra cash

Where are you guys pre-ordering from?

I want the SPECACT kits, but it seems BestBuy Canada does not have the promotion. As such, it may just be D2D for me.
