It has issues, and no one has argued that at all, and the fact that you've bad mouthed it to your entire squad without apparently going through the readily available tweak guides in this forum is fairly discouraging. My squad has a number of people that already own the game, and some of them (those with "heavy weight") systems started off with more issues than those with lower end systems. As they set config files and turned down settings they found better and better performance until they ended up with a good middle ground of performance to appearance ratio. It seems that the hubris of high end system users was a bigger cause of problems in my squad than with the software.
We all know it has issues, and many of us have seen through 1st, 2nd, and 3rd hand accounts that once most owners get over the power of their systems and start tweaking things they end up with better performance. What's more, for my own curiosity, how did your friend spend 3k on a self built system other than just going to Newegg and buying literally just the most expensive components? Building yourself, and then just buying the first thing listed on Newegg for the highest end components would be ridiculous (also the only way I could achieve the cost you suggested).

Hi Kikuchiyo,
I did not badmouth about it. We were all together and compared it on my rig versus the following rig:
Intel Core i7 990x 3,46 GHz
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580 (x2) SLI
6GB RAM
It is hard to understand this...
