Battlefield 3 ultra on late 2012 imac?

Is it possible to run this game on ultra settings on the newest iMacs?

newest iMacs of today will be the second generation from 15th October.
Yes i believe you can run ultra settings on 27" imac 680MX on 1080p or High settings on native 1440p or from 15 October i think you can 1440p on Ultra if they come up with 780MX+Maveriks

Incredibly unlikely you will be able to play the game at 2560x1440 on "Ultra" on a 680MX. I would bet money against it.

High, with moderate use of SSAO, AA, draw distance, etc? Maybe. The game is next-gen and isn't out yet.

(anyone that says "yes" has zero idea)

He is talking about BF3 and not 4 !
I see improvements with at least 10% in games between Mountain Lion and Maveriks
So if you wait until late October and take the 780M with Maveriks the game experience will be 20% better than 680MX with Mountain Lion

My mistake.

I still don't think Ultra on BF3 will happen at 1440p.

Mavericks also means nothing because BF3 doesn't run on OS X.
