Looks like mid 30s and up if you are gaming at 1080. Keep in mind that the fps will get better when BF4 gets more updates and the ~100MHz stock OC on the card wil bump it up a few FPS. I would say you can expect high 30s if you want to play on ultra. It would also help if you OC the 8320 over 4GHz. Not sure on how much though.

Did you buy all these parts already cause unless you do a lot of editing i think 16Gigs of Ram is pointless

The 760 will be able to play at max

For the PSU this should suffice http://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Series-Modular-Bronze-CX600M/dp/B00ALYOPSS

This is completely irrelevant but I was thinking of getting a 760 or 770 as well

Don't get a 760. First of all, BF4 supports Mantle, which is a technology that will alow AMD cards to get higher FPS. And, a 270X is the same price and better.

Where are you finding that performance out of a 760?

@ MrZand5 Like Speedx77x said, don't get 16gb unless you need it for other applications than games. Use the extra money for a better GPU like what PCunicorn mentioned.

Although this is probably true, we have no idea how mantle will perform yet, or when it will come out, or what drivers nvidia will produce... So buying a card on a mantle isn't a good idea just yet. Secondly, Mantle is only for GCN / AMD cards, it can be used for nvidia too...

Youtube, but i believe that BF4 uses some of the CPU as well so he might want to look into overclocking
