If anyone does, feel free to add me. I'm Gusu666 on Origin. I play the co-op and multiplayer (of course). I'm getting pretty good at flying the choppers and I'm okay flying the plane. I'm still getting used to having to use a 360 controller to be effective in a PC game.ROFL
 
No monies right now plus my 8800GTX, while an ass-kicker, it won't do BF3 @1920x1200 - the lowest res. I can play at. :(
However, Deus Ex: Human revolution and Alice: The Madness Returns both run flawlessly at high specs and are game of the year type games.

Origin? You can tolerate it?

Aside from it illegally reading your emails, basically being spyware for a marketing company, and violating several state/federal/international trade/privacy laws.... it's pretty okay. It has INSANELY fast download speeds. I have a 50mb connection and can cap out my hard drives write speed. I forgot to mention Origin also checks for no CD cracks and keygens and rats you out to the FBI, no joke it's in the EULA.

You should consider getting a 560 at least to play the game. They aren't too expensive. If not a GTX 295 is a great card for cheap on ebay. It's dual GPU and can be used as a physics processor. I am running two of them at the moment since I haven't seen much need to upgrade in 3 years, I built the most high end PC I could back then and it's still beastly by today's standards. The only thing about the 295 is that it only supports DX10.1 and not DX11 but the game still looks great.

I also have a old 9800 GX2 (two GTX 9800 GPUs on the same card) I'd be willing to sell for 50 bucks shipped. The thing about this card is it was really iffy about what motherboards worked with it. I had to get a 650i board back in the day to get it to detect and my newer p6t deluxe board does not see it at all. It also requires a lot of power to run as it uses a 8 pin and a 6 pin SLI power connector. I'd guess it could run the game at low settings with a few things turned up a bit but I'm not sure. It is also a DX10 card and does not support DX10.1 but who cares, 10.1 only added a few shaders that were buggy to begin with.
 
Krathwohl on origin... I just bought a buddys q6600 rig, slapped a new cooler on it, bumped it up to 3.4ghz stable and with a 460gtx it runs on ultra LOL. Good times :)
