Battlefield 4 VGA graphics card performance benchmarks
One of the biggest game releases of the year has to be Battlefield 4, that combat immersive game that is about to blow you from your socks After waiting way too long (the EU got a later release date then the USA once again) before the game to be unlocked we wanted bring you guys one of our traditional graphics performance articles. As such we'll take a dozen or so of the latest graphics cards and have a look at DX11 performance them. With Origin (that Steam like distribution platform) you are forced to connect to the launcher with the help of a web browser, it is somewhat inconvenient, sometimes laggy, can make browsers crash as we experienced and sure, sometimes even is irritating.
Battlefield 4 (also known as BF4) is a first-person shooter video game developed by EA Digital Illusions CE (DICE) and published by Electronic Arts. The game is a sequel to 2011's Battlefield 3. The game was released on October 29, 2013 in North America and will be released on October 31, 2013 in Australia and Japan, and November 1, 2013 in Europe and New Zealand.
That said, there's very little we can complain when it comes to the actual game itself of course, if you like the genre then you are going to love the DX11 version of the game. The graphics are good and once you've gone PC, you'll laugh at your console (well at least we hope). But yeah, if you are into military shooters have a peek at the graphics performance first if you like eye-candy of course.

We hope you liked this little soirée of tests which will be an indicator of overall performance. Make no mistake, this game in Ultra quality mode makes your GPU(s) sweat when you jump up in resolution, but BF4 has become amongst the better looking games anno 2013, not extremly good or anything, but overall pretty good would be my wording here.
All modern graphics cards will run the game at Full HD extraordinary well. For mid-range the 7800 / R9-270X series from AMD and the GTX 660 / 760 and upwards from NVIDIA will offer truly nice value for money. There is just no need to drop down in images quality modes too massively and heck, that's where we as PC gamers needs to be. We do not like to forfeit in quality. If you need a little more icing on top of the cake then up-to Full HD the GeForce GTX 770 is great with on the competitions side the R9 280X editions being very price competitive as well -- single GPU wise. From there upwards with QHD 2560x1440 you pay the price for premium products and the value for money ratio slowly is killed off. Here a R9 290X is fantastic as well as the GTX 780. For Ultra HD gaming, honestly if you want MSAA, you'll need a multi-GPU solution. A R9 290X and a GTX Titan could pull it off, but you need to forfeit MSAA really. Surprisingly the fastest single card solution is the Radeon HD 7990, and these go for 450 EUR these days.
I wanted to point out, all cards used today are reference cards with reference clocks. As you guys know AIC/AIB partners mostly offer factory overclocked or factory faster clocked products. That by itself can shift performance per card or brand upwards another 10% -- just so that you guys know okay ?
