price is irrelevant - just something that wouldnt have major lag issues

The recommended card is a 6950 or GTX560 class card

But, that might not be as good as you want.

I think a more modern 28nm based card like a GTX660ti or 7850 would be good if it fits your budget.

A GTX 660 would be the lowest I'd recommend if you want to play on Ultra. It's a great card for $230.

If you're sticking to BF3 then Nvidia is the way to go. BF3 just plays better on GTX's than Radeons.

GTX 660 vs Radeon 7870 Features & Pricing

GTX 660 vs 7870 Benchmarks You'll notice that the 7870 is faster in quite a few games but when it comes to BF3, Batman: Arkham City, Portal 2 & Starcraft 2 (not like SC2 stresses either card) the GTX 660 does win by a substantial amount.
