wait... you use a controller while playing bf4 on PC? how good do you do?

I do aight, I've rarely played with a full squad on the game on PC though. Only person I ran with on the reg with on it was @itsyoung!!

By the way people talk about it though, you would think my K/D would be way below 1 considering I'm playing against kb/m users. My stats are better on PS4 but I have tons of people that I play with and communicate with on there so it's a given that my numbers are better.

My bad, was being lazy. This is what I have now.

Motherboard-GIGABYTE |GA-Z77X-UD5H intel Z77

Intel Core i5-3570 Quad-Core Processor 3.4 GHz 6 MB Cache LGA 1155 - BX80637I53570

Samsung 840 Series 2.5 inch 120GB SATA III internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MZ-7TD120BW

Corsair Vengeance 8 GB ( 2 x 4 GB ) DDR3 1600 MHz (PC3 12800) 240-Pin DDR3 Memory Kit for Core i3, i5, i7 and Platforms SDRAM CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9

And a 500 gb western digital caviar HD @ 7200 rpm


And a 450 or 500 watt power supply, can't recall exact number right now and I'm not near by.

On board graphics right now...

I have a friend who has a similar build to yours but has a GTX 770. He is actually powering his system with some extra 450W PSU I had laying around since he threw away the modular cables to his original PSU. YMMV though.

yeah, that's actually really good for using a controller. pretty impressive.

Ok my bad. Was just reading the last page and missed it. You have a good setup (Intel chips haven't jumped too much between the last two gens).

Yeah I figured it would just come down to which graphics cards are worth investing in and then maybe some extra cooling/ bigger power supply... Any rec on graphics cards? I'm looking for next gen console performance, maybe a bit better depending on prices.

If u don't wanna spend alotta bread cop a gtx760 and call it a day bro..better than what these next gen systems are doing...definitely..

Rust is crack.

I love this game, I built a house around a guys house and made him my prisoner, I fed him cans of tuna and cooked chicken when it was available, and some times I would drop in spare logs of wood(when they were available). The best part. he talks to me, keeps telling me his clans going to raid my structure and save him.. I simply respond with .” It puts the lotion on its skin, or it gets the hose again” and by hose I mean I dump charcoal on him.
-Great game hope the servers come up soon, I think my pet may need to eat.
