Battlefield 3 is designed to deliver unmatched visual quality by including large scale environments, massive destruction and dynamic shadows. Additionally, BF 3 also includes character animation via ANT technology, which is also being utilized in the EA Sports franchise. All of this is definitely going to push any system its threshold, and is the reason so many gamers around the world are currently asking if their current system is up to the task.
Unlike the other games we benchmark, the performance of Battlefield 3 is tested during online game play. We ensure our results are accurate by running through each resolution four times before averaging the results.
Both of the graphics card displayed strong performance above 1100MHz, as they were able to perform at roughly the same level as the HD 6870. Overclocking did improve the overall performance, but by only a small margin. Still, it was enough to help the HD 7770 pull ahead of the HD 6870.
I have 2 of these cards in Crossfire and the max Afterburner allows me is 1250mV.
If you haven't unlocked it try the steps below. If that doesn't work it could be your BIOS are a different revision and only allow the core voltage to go up to 1250 and not 1350.
1st - Remove the current version and download the latest MSI AfterBurner and install.
2nd - Locate the folder where MSI Afterburner installed to, open it, and locate the CFG file named MSIAfterburner. When you 1st double click this file it will ask you what program you want to use to open it, choose "Notepad" and click "ok" Once you have the MSIAfterburner CFG file open in notepad you need to change a couple of settings near the bottom:
UnofficialOverclockingEULA = I confirm that I am aware of unofficial overclocking limitations and fully understand that MSI will not provide me any support on it
UnofficialOverclockingMode = 1 (to keep PowerPlay active (may not work on old ASICs), 2 to traditionally disable PowerPlay or to 0 to temporary disable unofficial overclocking path)<--Do not type this, just for reference I have mine set to = 1
After you have made these changes, DO NOT forget to click "file" and "save" before exiting notepad, or your changes will not take into effect!
Tried to add the EULA line but upon exit it said Access Denied. I have full admin rights of course, tried going into the MSI Afterburner folder to change security settings but still no luck.
I removed last version and installed 2.2.0 Beta 15. Is that the latest?
Any ideas on the access front?
