I want to run it at 1600x900 or somewhere close to it. i don't mind having low settings as long as i can run this resolution. I CURRENTLY AM USING HD 4400 ON AN I3 4130 AND AM LOOKING TO UPGRADE ON A VERY TIGHT BUDGET. I WOULD LIKE TO GET AROUND 60fps at this resolution or at 720p

Okay you can get the 7770 for 60-80$ which is a great card that can run that resolution on medium to high at 55fps and if you overclock it competes with the 650ti so if you throw in extra 10-15 dollars to that budget you'll be able to get this card, newegg usually sell the 7770 for 75$ And if you don't find one on newegg you can check out Amazon or eBay I bought a gigabyte 7770 for 68$ from newegg and it ran bf4 at medium at 1680x1050 at 45-65fps never dips below 40
Assuming you have the GT 730 with GDDR5 VRAM rather than the DDR3 model, plus at least 4GB RAM, you just about scrape through the minimum system requirements. Unfortunately, "minimum system requirements" doesn't mean "playable frame rate", and if you want 60 fps, you'll need to lower the resolution much further than 720p. At that resolution, you'll be lucky to get 30 fps.

It's also worth pointing out that this is based on single-player; multiplayer is much more demanding and will probably be out of reach.
 


 
how will i only get that when a an r7 250 which has the same amount of cores can run it at a higher resolution and at an average of over 50fps.i know mantle helps but i should still get around 50-60 fps at 720p as i have seen videos where it is running it at 1080p at medium settings at 23fps and that is the 1gb ddr3 version with 384 cores.
 


 
this is the official minimum specs for bf4
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz, AMD Athlon X2 2.8 GHz or better
CPU Speed: Info
RAM: 4 GB
OS: Windows Vista SP2 32-Bit (with KB971512 System Update)
Video Card: 512 MB AMD Radeon HD 3870 / NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT or better
Free Disk Space: 30 GB

my pc beats these specs no problem as i have the following:
i3 4130 3.4ghz quad core
12gb ram 1600mhz
windows 8.1
gt 730 with 384 cores and 1gb of vram
and finally a 1tb hdd
 


if i could afford one i would get it but obviously i can't afford it so don't give such a stupid answer.

Great attitude man, that'll definitely encourage more people to help you out.

You aren't going to be playing multiplayer in BF4 with a 40-50£ card. Not at decent or consistent framerates at least.

I suggest saving more money, rather than buying a cheap GPU that's hardly better than the integrated graphics. Even if you're tight on money, it shouldn't be hard to put away 10£ every payday until you have 100£, then you'll get your moneys worth.
