BF3 long load times fix...

If you are experiencing long load times with BF3, turn off Vsync. I went from over 1min to load time to less then 10sec, this is at the point when the game was showing me loading screen in game.

My load times (separate Caviar Black drive with my gaming partition closest to the spindle) are up there pretty good but I figured it was the nature of the beast given the crazy amount of data that has to be loaded in comparison to Bad Company 2.

I'll give it a try tonight and see.

If this is effecting AMD users as well I think I will put a post on BF3 forum. Any info you guys can give would be great!

@Optix - I tried 2 different drives to play this from and it never resolved it's self until I turned off Vsync. I was going crazy knowing a guy I was playing with had faster load times on a lower end rig. The only reason I caught it was because my bro said his wasn't on and he loaded up quickly the first time we were playing the other day after got it.

My load times are around 8s to 10s with Vsync On, No AA and everything else on Ultra. So no problems there! :D

Ultra at 1680x1050 at 32 FPS is doable on my rig in single player mode but the load times are pretty steep.
