    PC guys, question: I'm going to start the upgrade process for my PC. I'm wanting to do mobo, chip, and HDDs in round one. Recommendations? Was thinking of going with an intel chipset. SSD? And... go.

    I have an AMD Phenom II processor at 3.30 GHz. I am not an expert by any means when it come to processors. I had a friend help build this PC and that is what he recommended.

    A SSD is a must. At least have you OS running installed on a SSD. I have a 250GB Samsung 840 series SSD.

    Just finished Far Cry, and man was it amazing.

    I think I am getting close. I have a ton of hours in this game but I have been trying to make it last. I have pretty much everything complete but the main story at this point.

    I would go with an i5. They're great for gaming and overclock like a beast. I got mine up to 4.1Ghz from 3.3Ghz still keeping it under 55*C on load. Usually anything by ASRock, ASUS, MSI, and EVGA and you will get a good mobo. SSD's are good if you don't mind spending the rest of the money. I have a normal 500gb Sata2 Samsung drive and I'm loading maps almost faster than other people in online games and it takes me about 30-60 seconds to fully boot up.

    SSD's will make it a little faster. But honestly, I would put that money elsewhere at first and get the SSD later on after you bough everything else. Put it in the GFX card budget.

    That's what I did, I did every single outpost and radio tower and nearly all the side quests before I did the last missions. Really only have to find all the relics now.

    I found enough relics to unlock the signature weapon and haven't actively looked for anymore. Of course I have just stumbled across quite a few.

    That's how I've found the relics that I have found. Just stumbled onto them. Haven't made it a point to find them just yet.

    I was obsessed with them until I unlocked the signature weapon.

    Most of the sig weapons are pointless IMO, especially even you unlock the originals of them.

    The signature versions are more powerful and usually have at least 3 attachments where the normal versions can only have 2 in most cases.

    In some cases, I would agree.

    Like I prefer my Z93 sniper over the sig one, since I like the suppressor attachment.

    I do love the Shredder though.

    The Z93 is weak though. I like thw AWR or whatever it is called because it can drop the armored guys with a headshot.

    I am using the desert eagle over the magnum though. Also using the bow for my sneak weapon.

    My Z93 takes them out with a headshot, so I am happy with it.

    The difference between the AWR and the regular Z93 is that the AWR has explosive rounds.

    I use nothing but sneak weapons besides me SPAS shotgun though, I have the sig assault rifle (silent), the Z93 (silent), the Shredder (silent lol), and then finally my shotgun. I do use the bow quite a bit though.

    You unlock the Katana yet?

    Most people are PS3 people in this thread. If you play Battlefield 3, we welcome you to the BF3 Wrecking Crew. Myself, Aussie, Joester, and many others play together. Leave your PSN in this thread, and lets tear up the Battlefield.
