Hi
i would really like to play this game on high or ultra i dont want to spend more than 160 pounds so far ive been looking at the 7870 and gtx 660 any advice would be appreciated. i know that the games is going to be optimized for bf4 but i still don't know which one to choose
I would say the safest bet right now would be a HD7870LE overclocked to within an inch of it's existence. What resolution would you be using?Quote:

Based on BF3, the 7870 would be the choice of the two....although don't expect a solid 60fps @ ultra even in BF3, although it should hang in and around 60 a lot.
As for BF4.....it's going to need more grunt. How much more......well I hope I don't have to tell you we don't know yet.....
Frostbite 2 ran better on AMD hardware, so I would certainly favor AMD if that's the main purpose and you want to buy before the game is released and benchmarked...
These (rather shouty) people think that a recommended spec will be a i5 and a 79xx or better.

It might be worth waiting to see if rumour that BF4 will be included with AMD's never settle bundle for the 8000's series cards is true. Buy a HD8870 and get BF4 as one of the free games maybe?
yh that's what i was thinking however i would like to know what to get in case the 8xxx series doesn't come outQuote:

I'd sit tight and wait to see what extra performance the 8000's bring and if AMD bundle BF4. I would expect the £200~ 8000 card to give playable frame rates in BF4 at 1920x1080. Anything you buy now within budget is questionable.Quote:
