I came up with this: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/2vDuH

Oh...you can only get it from that one place, ok ignore this, ill see what i can do with that website

CPU: Intel Core i3-3210 Sandy bridge 3.3 GHz (15,000 KSh.)
Motherboard: ASUS H81M-E Motherboard (8,700 KSh.)
RAM: Kingston Hyperx 8 GB Desktop Memory (8,500 KSh.)
GPU: Radeon HD 7750 2GB (15,500 KSh.)
HDD: 1 TB Laptop SATA Hard Disks (8,500 KSh.)
PSU: 500 Watts Corsair Power Supply (9,300 KSh.)
Case: Gigabyte Gz-F4 Series Casing (6,500 KSh.)

Total: 72,000 Kenya Shillings

All from that website. With your budget you can't get the HD 7850 so you can get the HD 7750. You should be able to run Battlefield 4 on High/Medium settings with a good frame rate.

Watch here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6IYIoecl6c

That video is somebody playing Battlefield 4 on high settings with an HD 7750, while recording.

thanks a lot zemiak.

You're welcome! It was a bit of a challenge, sorry I went over your budget a little bit, they didn't have anything smaller than a 1TB HDD.

Don't forget to choose the best answer!

Have fun gaming

is the i3-3210 not an lga1155 socket and the asus h81m-e a lga1150???

Oops, ok updating it.

CPU: Intel Core i3-3210 Sandy bridge 3.3 GHz (15,000 KSh.)
Motherboard: Asrock H61M-HVS (6,500 KSh.)
RAM: Kingston Hyperx 8 GB Desktop Memory (8,500 KSh.)
GPU: Radeon HD 7750 2GB (15,500 KSh.)
HDD: 1 TB Laptop SATA Hard Disks (8,500 KSh.)
PSU: 500 Watts Corsair Power Supply (9,300 KSh.)
Case: Gigabyte Gz-F4 Series Casing (6,500 KSh.)

Total: 69,800 Kenya Shillings

Now the motherboard has a LGA1155 socket

I would not get that build. DEFINITELY get an fx6300 and an am3+ motherboard if you want to play bf3 at all. A dual core CPU will struggle with any game coded for more than 4 cores. I had an i3 3220 and even with an hd7870 GPU I couldn't play bf4 past low settings.
