At what resolution and what did you change AA setting too? As far as BF3.

4x aa 1920x1080

That's FXAA then, not MSAA, right? Are you saying 70 is your average? Multiplayer or single player? Just wondering, my overclocked 6950 pulls 40-50 average with 4x FXAA, hbao, everything else ultra at 1080p on 64 player maps.

That sounds about right, theres no way everything on ultra at 1080p a 6950 gets 70fps.

I call BS on that. I get 70fps avg with 2 6970s in crossfire, and 110+ fps avg with 3 in TriFire.

I'll assume your resolution is 800x600.
