    Hello guys, I managed to get access to the BF1 Closed Alpha. I was testing the game out on my AW18 and running the game maxed out & DX12. Please note that this game is running with a single GTX880. Force render frame 2 causes the driver and game to crash. I could get 40fps average and the max is 50fps.

    Due to the NDA Agreement, I can't post any screenshots but I will once it has been lifted. Just thought I might share this detail with you guys. Also desktop GTX980 is running around 90fps on ground battles. Air battles is 120-150fps maxed out @ DX12
