edit:
Should I OC the cpu? Will adding another gig to speed improve performance?

So (F)ield (O)f (V)iew makes it so you see more of whats going on around you as your playing, correct?

I did up a couple vids I did as Lord_Exodia suggested
Set the game to post process high, Set deferred AA to off, in the nvidia control panel set to override appllication for AA Set Supersample and set Transparency AA

Good quality and I shut off v-sync and Average 120FPS with Fraps Recording.Just amazing.

With my settings the same as my orginal posts, in SLI, I now get from 105 to 85 FPS! So SLI kicks Ass!! Both cards now run at 60% playing BF3 instead of the single card running at 99%. Please keep in mind this is each card running in 8X on the pci-e. I can't even imagine both cards running at 16X.

It's up to how you like it, but 90 is usually standard fare for a PC shooter. 74 is more what you would see on a console.

Thanks guys

The FOV in bf3 is vFOV. So a setting of 74 would be 100 hFOV...i think thats right.

Edit: nope i got it mixed round both use hFOV.

**Rummy** · 11-05-11, 10:29 PM

ok thanks fov calculator says 65 should be ideal, i will try that.

**Maverick123w** · 11-05-11, 10:40 PM

I've always thought of changing the fov as cheating.

**Roadhog** · 11-05-11, 10:45 PM

Actually, you guys cant compare the FOV to BC2.

BC2 used a Verticle FOV, while BF3 uses a Horizontal FOV(proper).

**Rummy** · 11-05-11, 11:25 PM

yeah thanks road using 85 now..

Bah! · 11-06-11, 01:48 AM

Both BC2 and BF3 use Hor+ for their widescreen.
