Whats Low Budget? Could we get a number?

KlethohHD · Apr 30, 2014

What resolution? USD?

Sapphire R9 280X 3GB Dual-X at about 299$.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814202046
OR
MSI GTX TF 760 2GB at about 250$
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127745

Both are great cards for playing the games you listed with R9 280x at 300$ being more bang for buck which has performance almost equal to GTX 770.
Choose whichever fits in your budget and settings at which you'r gonna play.
Like if you'r gonna play at 1920×1080 resolution GTX 760 will be sufficient. Anything greater than this can be handled by R9 280x very well.

If you could go over a little I would say go for the GTX 770 here http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=&sku=983684&gclid=CIC20s6xiL4CFUTMtAodETQADw&Q=&is=REG&A=details

But if you want to stay under 300 then probably the GTX 760 here http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127745

but you will be happy if you pay the extra for the 770

Since a tag is 'Battlefield', here's two videos of BF4, one with a 780ti, the other my 280x playing on Metro 2014, both running on Ultra 1080p.

See if anyone can figure out which is the 280x without looking at the titles

For BF4, the 280x completely dominates the 770; it isn't even close.

Different recording software, and processors were used. So you cant base assumptions off of that.
The 780Ti is the fastest single GPU card on the market, so the 280X lags behind.

As for the price, 760 or 770.

Gam3r01 :

Wow, the excuses never cease, but they are running out. Even in the face of real world evidence, some refuse to come to grips with a $300 card keeping up with a $700 card in BF4. That after months of ridicule of Mantle by even an admin that banned me for a short time when I'd had enough of his constant bloviating.

In the video above he used an i7 980, hardly a slug. I used Action! to record the game which is no better than Shadowplay as far as FPS hit; I don't think either lose a lot. Mantle cannot be recorded in Full Screen mode.

Here's a GTX 770 1080p Ultra on Altai Range

FPS
Min: 47
Max: 132
Avg: 59

R280x 1080p Ultra Mantle
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XM0vcvb7OyY&feature=youtube_gdata_player

No smoothing or cropping; just the raw data, full round. 78 FPS avg

With smoothing, the average varies little which means the lows and highs are outliers, still 78 FPS avg.

78 FPS vs 59 FPS, "only" 25%

Prices for the 280x have come down close to what they were before the gpu mining fad ruined their value (bang for the buck).

BTW, you forgot to mention the 295x2 being the fastest single slot gpu.
