Hi everyone,

I plan on getting BF4, but when I played the beta I was a little alarmed at how choppy it was on my machine. I know that the beta is not the finished product and optimized properly, but I still believe I need a better card so I'm not stuck playing on the lowest settings.

I have an Intel i7 2600 @ 3.40 GHZ, 12GB RAM and a EVGA GTX 560ti 1GB. I'm hoping that my CPU and RAM will be good enough and I was thinking of replacing my GTX with an AMD R9 280, but I'm open to suggestions. I would like to keep the card less than $330 and I have seen a few R9 280's at $329 or less (CAD$).

Thanks everyone

I've found it for even cheaper:

I'm not sure how the shipping price is, though, unfortunately.
