For £15 over budget - http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/gigabyte-video-card-gvr928wf3oc3gd

 

And I really don't recommend going for an R9 270 (x)

RIG: I7-4790k @ 4.5GHz | MSI Z97S SLI Plus | 12GB Geil Dragon RAM 1333MHz | Gigabyte G1 Gaming GTX 970 (1550MHz core/7800MHz memory) @ +18mV(Maxed out at 1650/7800 so far) | Corsair RM750 | Samsung 840 EVO 120GB, 1TB Seagate Barracuda | Fractal Design Arc Midi R2 (Closed) | Sound Blaster Z                                                                                                                        Getting: Noctua NH-D15 | Possible 250GB Samsung 850 Evo                                                                                        Need a console killer that actually shits on every console? Here you go (No MIR/Promo)

I'd check out cards like the GTX760 or GTX750Ti from Nvidia, or the R7 260x / R9 270 for that price point, you could also consider going for a used GPU.

• NCASE M1 • i5-12600kf • RTX 4060Ti FE • Z690M-ITX • SF600 • NH-L9x65 Chromax • LPX 32GB

i think that is the choice but could i run for a bit with one card and then add another 

Yes you can, the R9 280 can max out BF4 with 60+ fps

Yes you can, the R9 280 can max out BF4 wibut it would be better to get 2 270x right 

 

2x R9 280 > 2x R9 270X

the 750ti cannot support sli 

 

 

@renzar501

Oh, you're right. My brain immediately saw 1080p gaming, ~50 FPS 2 GB GDDR5 with a price tag of ~130 pounds, so I said 750 Ti..

I still think a 270 or 270X is really good, or a 280 if you can stretch your budget a little further.
