i just watched a video of Pentium Dual Core playing battlefield 4 and it wasn't quite convincing

I think just getting a graphic card won't solve the problem
If you want judt graphic card then I think Radeon 7770 ($132) or 6850 ($166) would be good for playing games like Battlefield 4
You could able to play it at lowest settings
But you still need 4 GB RAM

It will be able to run them at lower settings yes, but that Dual Core is really holding you back in more CPU intensive games, the 7770 itself is decent for gaming at medium settings.
In regards to BF4 though, low-medium settings at 1080p with no AA should be manageable

Many of them I play on my Intel dual Core and 2 GB RAM PC like Max Payne 2, Deus Ex, etc without graphic card
They all run pretty smooth

Your pc specs are really outdated.It can only support above games lag free
If you want to play latest games then you must have
CPU: AMD Athlon X2 2.8GHz / Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4GHz
*.RAM: At least 4 GB*
Graphic Card : AMD Radeon HD 4770 with 512MB RAM or better / Nvidia GeForce 8800GT with 512MB RAM or better

Bro the specs that you are listing are more outdated than his current build. Dont get me wrong but for playing games most important component is Graphics card. If you have Nice Graphics card but a little weak cpu then you can get along with games. But if a robust CPU is paired with a weak graphics card then you wont be able to play games


If the OP gets GTX 750 he can play all the latest games like BF4 at nice settings and decent frame rates

Though graphic card used is different here

And don't worry 7770 and 6850 won't get bottlenecked
I have seen videos and also checked other threads before suggesting

Here's a video from BF3 with GTX 550ti+Intel Dual Core E5700@3.0ghz+2GB DDR2 RAM
http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XawT2mdMjdM

FPS with Fraps: 30
FPS without Fraps :-
Avg: 49.737
Min: 30
Max: 71

Now Gtx 750 is much better than 550 Ti.
So definitely the OP can play BF4 @1366*768 resolution and medium settings and get around 25-30fps which is pretty decent with his current build if he adds gtx 750.
The reason i recommended gtx 750 is because it is
1. New
2. Better than others at its price range
3. Consumes less power and doesnt requires any 6 Pin PCIe cable to power it which is helpful with a system with not so competent Power Supply

On other hand both AMD Radeon 7770 & 6850 require 1×6 pin PCIe cable.
While GTX doen't requires any power cable. With that said Gtx 750 is also faster than HD 7770 and GTX 750 is only 10$ costly than HD 7770.
While HD 6850 being faster than both is hard to find and also has a price tag of 155$ and will be bottlenecked a little bit by OP's current build.

EDIT: kapkhanna1 what power supply do u have ?
If you dont know then most probably it will be not be decent one.
In that case if you dont want to build new PC and neither don't want to upgrade your power supply and want to get a graphics card which can make you able to play all latest games and without allowing your current PC to significantly bottleneck your graphic cards performance get the GTX 750.

Anything better than GTX 750 I'm afraid will be bottlenecked by your CPU.

And also what budget do you have for graphics card ?
If you simply want the best for your PC then GTX 750 will be the best
If your budget is holding you back then get Nvidia Geforce GT 640 2GB DDR3 128-bit for about 90$
If you have a good quality 400W power supply and low on budget and ok to go with AMD get AMD Radeon HD 7770 1GB DDR5 128-bit for about 110$

Maybe my long post made you confused :)

Let me make this clear.
PERFORMANCE :- HD 6850> GTX 750 > HD 7770
PRICE:- HD 6850>> GTX 750 > HD 7770
Good Quality 400W power supply needed→ HD 6850 & HD 7770 → YES
Chances of Bottleneck → None with GTX 750 & HD 7770. But with HD 6850 little bit of bottleneck
Bang for Buck→Gtx 750

:bounce: good
but he still would not be able to play with 2 GB RAM
4 GB RAM should be sufficient accompanying with the graphic card you would use
