I want a build that can reach 60fps in BF4 on 1080p max settings but I dont need anti aliasing and stuff like that.

I'm talking about multiplayer not campaign, I know they have performance differences.

It doesn't have to be a "stable" 60fps, I dont mind if the frames drop to 40 every once in a while, just not frequently.

I dont have a legitimate budget but I dont want to spend more then what is necessary for my performance needs, for example if I can get 60fps with a $500 build then please DO NOT recommend a $900 build because its more "future proof" or it "looks cooler".

I want a 1tb HDD

Thanks :)

You will need a gtx 770 or 280x to play bf4 maxed out (without aa) at 1080p, that's 300 usd right there. High is not that far off ultra in my opinion and should be reachable for around 600 so long as you do not need os and/or monitor and peripherals. Ultra for 500, I would say probably not.

Hello its me the thread starter.

Now I'm thinking that when playing 64 players I dont need max setings@60fps, That would be reserved for 32players and under. For 64 players I only need high@40fps

Also I was thinking about this build, would it be enough?

You could scale the gpu to your needs, or as an intel build.

The case and psu are nicer and better quality in my builds, also the fx 6300 should use an aftermarket cooler to run cool and overclock.

This build is the lowest I would go.
