an fx8320 and 270x system (the 280 would be better) can run new games at high settings pretty effectively. in bf4 @ 1080p @ high graphics i would expect around 50-55fps give or take.

Ok, that sounds pretty good. I don't play all lot of graphic heavy games like BF4, so that games I play should be able to go pretty smoothly then on max graphics if I could do that with BF4.

Ya the game with the highest graphics I play is Outlast, I think.
