Very interesting read:

"We’ve also been able to put some performance rumours to rest. As the identical results of the HD 6950 2GB and 1GB show, simply throwing more graphics memory at BF3 doesn't improve performance. Instead, it gobbles up extra GPU resources and higher clock speeds, which would explain the reports of BF3 pushing graphics cards so hard."

OK, complete system reinstall, dusted out my entire system, only running one hd and this piece of shit is still crashing. Is this game like Starcraft 2? Where once I put the code into my account I can't undo it? Because I seriously want to give this piece of shit game away. EVERY other game runs like butter, but this piece of shit crashes after 5 minutes, WTF? Does this game just hate GTX 580's? Whatever I'm done with waiting for a "fix". And I'm using 285 drivers in case your wondering.

Guys I am not able to log into origin, when I log in it says your user or password is wrong, but I am putting right password and username. I could log in just fine and play B2K today but now I can't log into origin to play bf3. I can access battlelog, but not origin.
I tried to change password but nothing works.

It won't help as it will take ages for some rep to address the issue.
None of my friends are able to log into origin. I see EA Forums are flooded with the same error help, but no solution found.
Since when are you online in origin, did you try logging out and back in? Am pretty sure you could get the error?

Try this. Right click on command prompt and choose run as admin. Then type in:
bcdedit /set incr******erVa 3072
(for some reason, its blocking that... its increase User VA without spaces.)
Then hit enter. Fixed the crashing for me.

I had no problems when I logged in a few hours ago and I've been playing ever since. However I just tried logging out and back in and now I get a message about the authentication servers being down.
EDIT: EA is definitely having issues with their servers. Even BF3Stats is having issues updating player stats, so it's not just an issue with my computer.

I see the servers all around Asia are empty, all must be getting the same error and this is what Battlefield posted on their FB page.
