Solution
The 750 Ti can play on low to medium in games like BF4. If you can save up another 50-100 GBP you can get a much better card that will play games on high to ultra like a 270X or 280X.

How well does this card play modern demaning games such as Battlefield 4 without factoring in all the other componets of the PC?
It plays on low quality, but its not good enough save a bit extra and get a better one:)
