Battlefield 3 PC System Requirements Revealed

Before you run away in fear, a quick glance at the specifications reveals that the  requirements to play Battlefield on PC are not that bad providing you have updated your graphics card in the last four years and have a Dual Core CPU. However as we were never ones to listen to minimum specifications due to our aversion to less than  60FPS on PC, you might want a relatively up to date rig to get the most out of Battlefield 3.

You won’t need the best of the best to blaze a trail of graphical goodness across your screen, but Quad Core CPUs and DirectX 11 compatible cards are the order of the day!
