I have $70 to spend and I either want BF4 premium or a new heatsink.

My current temperatures for my CPU are 70C max on prime 95 and under 50C while gaming.

I have two buddies who want me to get BF4 premium so that they don't have to play on the vanilla maps also because I want to play the new maps too.

So it's either a single 120mm liquid cooler or BF4 premium what should I get?

70° on prime,  50° whilst gaming, those temps are fine you DO NOT need another cooler.

Get BF4

rather get a better cooler. tried BF4, buggy as hell. no point in premium currently.

 

1. rage with a game and not having a new cooler

OR

2. get impressed by new cooler temps and not having to deal buggyfield 4.

 

but for me, i'll just save the money for later :P

Well he is clearly an avid BF4 player already so I'd get Premium.

No point getting a cooler.

I already have BF4 and found out why I was getting micro lag and buggy hit markers it's because BF4 relies more on their servers than BF3 did and with my shitty router I was getting 5-10% packet loss causing lag and performance issues. Now that I got a new router I don't have those problems and the game is great.

So thanks for your input guys I guess I'll get premium :-)

EDIT: I am a avid Battlefield player with 900+ combined hours on BF3, 400 hours on BFBC2 and 100+ hours on BF4.

The game isn't even buggy. Stop qqing about it and just play it. If you don't like it, don't buy it. 

 

Sure, it might have a glitch here and there. But so does my other 98 games in my Steam Library

Don't feed EA money!!!! So get a cooler

Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof.

As I get older I get angrier more cynical, meaner. I feel some warning posts coming. I feel a ban coming. I was warned.

oh look what we have here....

because someone doesn't recommended a game to someone doesn't mean i hate this game.

 

Look, i already bought BF4, its one of my favorite game, spend around 100hours into it and already lvl 66.

but compared to BF3, bf4 is like a literal 'crap' in the battlefield franchise. much like justin bieber in the music industry.

Why? cuz it doesn't even meet the criteria of a 'finished' game. heck my unpatched skyrim game is more playable and less glitchy than this game.

and yes, glitch in a multiplayer game is a DEAL BREAKER.

When 2 things meet each other, Quantum stuff happens.

Are their still bugs in the game? I haven't really met any after the patches at all, maybe my pc is weak that it doesn't face bugs xD
