Would of though one 680 GTX would be overkill for D3......might come in handy for Max Payne 3 though.

I maxed out the beta on my old rig which had an ATI 5850, so yeah, a GTX 680 is major overkill for Diablo III, but most people don't buy hardware for one game (unless it's BF3

).

Is anyone installing D3 on a SSD?

You bet your ass I am, ordering a Crucial M4 128GB tomorrow, I will use my Intel X-25 80GB until then though.

I have about 20gig left on my M4, thinking about having this on my ssd but there aren't many loading screens in D3, are there?

D3 on SSD why?, in beta there was no load times :S

In the beta the game was much smoother on the SSD, although I think that was due to some issues with the beta itself. Either way, why not? It can't hurt.

I plan to have my 128GB for Windows, apps, main games and then my 80GB for Steam games. I also have a 1TB storage drive.

eclap · 05-13-2012, 21:56 | posts: 18,444 | Location: Hampshire UK

Do we know how large the install folder will be?

Wowmman. For me the digital copy of the game is more expensive than the boxed version. I dont like games in boxes. So let me ask. If i buy that boxed version, so i can register it to my batte account. So i can download it digitally in the future yes? If i loose the boxed copy i mean.

yes.

EDIT: can someone running nvidia gpu tell me what driver you're using and what bits are you setting in inspector?

I'm using the latest beta. As for inspector, it really isn't needed. The in game settings will suffice with this game.

was messing around with the skill calculator earlier and I believe I have finished my barb build.

Thanx. And let me ask another question. Is the camera fixed? Or we can rotate it. What about zoom in and out?

eclap · 05-13-2012, 23:25 | posts: 18,444 | Location: Hampshire UK

no rotation, one step of zoom (for a closer view of your gear).

PhazeDelta1 · 05-13-2012, 23:25 | posts: 9,317 | Location: 90° N

There will be minimal zoom but no rotating

ok.. I'm still on 296.10, have no problems with games so haven't updated my drivers. Every ime I see a new driver release there's people complaining about various bugs :/

Was mainly asking because I know we can enable AO in D3, also was wondering if we can force some high AA because the game isn't all that demanding...

I certainly didn't buy a second GTX 680 for Diablo III, it just happens to be going to be delivered on the same day the game is released.

It's possible. I would hope more graphical settings are in the final release but wont loose any sleep if there isn't. But with everything maxed out in the beta, I was barely using 600MB of vram at times. Since physics is ran off the cpu, I would suggest anyone with an AMD CPU to disable it if you want to gain a few fps. Intel folks should be ok. I really didn't notice that much of a frame rate difference when switching it off and on.

My i5 2400 + 560Ti didn't even seem to notice what Physics settings I was using.

Come on Amazon, WTF? Still not delivered, not like i pre-ordered early or anything (my longest Amazon pre-order!!), check the date

Oh well, guess i won't be getting it on release. Not got any free time until Wednesday night (bloody Mother in Law is visiting for two days). It better arrive by Wednesday though as I've got friends coming round for a Diablo 3 night...fingers crossed.

You didn't choose release date delivery.

or is that option not available to you guys across the pond?

estimated delivery date, only surefire on the day you choose if you pay way more
