The R9 270X it's a really good card for gaming. AMD just release an update called "Mantle" that raises the performance of the AMD GPU's by 20%+, specially the R9 cards. If Mantle likes your PC, expect major FPS playing at ultra settings.

Thing is, there's a general misconception that i3s are weak for gaming since they are dual cores
The i3-4130 is a very powerful hyperthreaded dual core that performs on par with AMD's quad cores so it'd be fine for gaming
Pair it up with a good gaming GPU and you're set (you said you had a 270x, so you should have no problem with BF4)
Since you're probably still deciding on CPU, the FX-6300 would be a better choice for BF4

Makes sense then, I'd definitely get the i3 over that APU especially since you already have your 270x
