Battlefield Tri-hard

^^ What Teek and Cortexian said. You need to play that map to understand where exactly those people were standing and why they were there to begin with. To either side of that wall is a hail of enemy bullets. If they were smart they would have turned right around, gone down the escalator, and then tried to flank the enemy. Nope, they decided they wanted to camp instead of taking the fight to the enemy.

[Cortexian]

Even if you do flank, if the people defending B/that set of MCOM's are doing it from the right positions you can't actually flank. The other set of escalators is usually the best but it's also really defensible, the cluster-fuck stairs are useless to take if you've got people defending to the left of the area in the previous video.

Sickest ending I've seen in any BF3 video at 2:07 (but watch the whole thing):

This means GPU is fucked right?

Ah, I see.

Kind of like how in TF2 an entire team of players would let themselves get pinned by a few sentry guns and just refuse to advance. Those were the best games.

either:
driver issue (unlikely though)
card overheating (eh)
card getting fucked up the behind and destroyed (propably)

you can either keep running with it until it fries completely, or replace it right away.
i waited until it completely fried and then run my pc in software render for a few weeks and not play games before i got a new one. (because im dirt-poor)

Yes! Exactly that. The few players who decide to push up usually get cut down easily.

Unless you're cool and actually use the side stair-well. Then you can really screw up the defending team if you time yourself right.

Unlikely, tried a couple different drivers to make sure.

card overheating (eh)

Also doubt it, it never gets above 80 degrees since I use my own active fan settings.

card getting fucked up the behind and destroyed (propably)

That's what I was thinking...

Looks like EVGA is going to be getting an earful. I'll likely get an upgrade to the 500 series for free now since if one card is borked they need to upgrade both since I have an SLI system... This will have been my FOURTH replacement card in less than a year, WHAT THE FUCK. I'm getting sick of sending these things away over and over.

Wait wait wait...80 degrees is OK?

Goddamn, mine doesn't go above 60. New GPUs are designed to take the heat, I guess?
