Need budget build for BF4 @60fps

[Gizmo j]

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 have to provide some sort of a budget. Your post seems to imply that you could spend $900 if you wanted to.

Please update your post with the answers to the questions in this thread:

There's really no way for us to effectively help you until you do.

While it won't impact framerates, I'd recommend buying an SSD both for the shorter in-game loading times, and the improved general system responsiveness.

You should also mention if you need to buy any peripherals.

The 7770 GHz is not even nearly fast enough to run BF4 at an average of 60 fps on max settings, no AA, 1080p. It's nice that you're contributing, but to post that build here is just out of place. A $400 build doesn't fit everyone's requirements.

Whoops...I didnt read Ultra setting :smack:.

Anyways OP, you can get ~30-35 fps @ 1080p with Ultra which is still playable, if you turn the settings down to High you will probably get 50-60 fps.

OP, can you please fill out the thread for the gaming and stuff DSF posted .

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?

Battlefield 4 favors Intel CPUs when it comes to minimum and average framerates, so I'd swap to an i3. It looks like a GTX 660 or 7870 class card is more than sufficient to give good framerates on High details at 1080p, so you can drop the GPU down a bit to cover the slightly higher CPU cost. I'd also recommend getting 8GB of RAM for $61 rather than a weird 6GB split for about the same price.

In summary, swap the parts below. Anything not mentioned stays the same.

i3 4130 $125
Biostar Hi-Fi B85S3+ $60
Team DDR3 1600 8GB $61
PowerColor R9 270 $180 - Mantle will also help performance
Total: $426 ($20 overall savings)
