I hope you are trolling. But if this question is honest: no. You will probably be playing at around 50-60. At least thats what I can squeeze out at ULTRA with GTX 680+i5 3570k ---

On that note, at 1080p, what am I going to get from an i5 4670K and an AMD 280x (3GB VRAM)? And uh, 8GB of RAM. I’m getting a new system - If I need better specs, I want to know now 😛 ---

120 fps? I would probably recommend sli/crossfire depending on your preference, that or a gtx 780 (which has an incoming price drop!). IDK much about the amd cards but I think they are roughly compaparable to their 700 series counterparts. I think a 4670k would be fine, If you plan to OC I recommend an aftermarket cooler though. Edit: I am dumb, didn’t notice the AMD preference. And yes I would go for the 3gb version with 8 gigs of ram ---

I believe the 280x is superior to the 770, I’m just not sure in its stance with the 780. I also know BF4 is geared towards the AMD cards? Thanks for recommending the aftermarket cooler, I’ll definitely do that! My motherboard will be compatible with sli, but I can’t afford that to start. ---

Well in comparison I have an 4670k oc’d to 4.4 with an evo 212 cooler. I also have a gtx 770, 2gb from gigabyte and 8gigs of ram (2x4, 1600mhz) With that setup, I play at a solid 60 fps with 0 hitches (with occasional CTD, thanks EA) with ultra texture and terrain quality and ultra to high mix everything else. So if you want to get a solid 120, you will need to heavily invest in your GPU(s), as that will be your bottleneck. ---

Alright. The 770 is cheaper at the moment, but only by pennies. I suppose I could work towards a second 280x, if I bought one to start with? Honestly, 60FPS is plenty, and I’d probably end up playing on high rather than ultra in any case (at 1080p - can’t afford a 2K monitor this early on). ---

If you are okay with 60 fps than there are a bunch of options, take a look at this review roundup : [http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-graphics-card-review,3107.html](http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-graphics-card-review,3107.html) Honestly, I think 60 fps is great for playing competitively. Last game I played I went 13-1 as squad leader and loved every minute of it. Its really about your skill level and less about your FPS (imo). Also, despite its technical issues, the game really is fantastic. ---

No, I was not trolling. Im not very experienced with the Computerhardware, nor am I able to tell from the Game’s requirements how smooth it will run. thanks anyway. ---

I mean - currently my outdating PC scrapes 30FPS and I still get a fair (1.2KD, good teamplay) score. It’s just obviously, if I’m upgrading, I want it to be a hefty upgrade 🙂 By the time I get BF4, I hope the issues are ironed out - either way, thanks for all the help! 😃
