to play that game? and Battlefield 3

Have you updated your Nvidia drivers???
There is no “best” card to play bf3, but 460s in SLI is plenty of power for all games and many games ahead.
yeah, updating the drivers would be the first step
edit: my bad, i suggested 560 ti sli for bf3 but i didnt realize 460s offered about the same performance

but still getting the message:

im keep on looking for the solution
hope you guys have more ideas

You may have to run a game update in order for it to recognize your video card as the game was released before your video card was even made.
run dxdiag and see what that says (winkey+r then enter dxdiag)
the video adapter driver in device mgr look OK ?
You may have to run a game update in order for it to recognize your video card
there any updates to the game ?
you might try this if dxdiag finds all OK
Game crashed on launch – Caused by systemdetection.dll
1. Open the the folder where u installed the game
2. Open the src folder
3. Open the system folder
4. Rename (or delete) the systemdetection.dll file
I’d rename it and save the name just in case you want it back
