only want to play at 1920x1080 bf3 ultra settings

i really dont want to hit the 3-400 barrier with a 24inch ben q monitor

Those are good cards. TBH for 1080p BF3 All Ultra, you're going to need a 580.

Yes, really. The 580 has 1.5gb vram, hence being better for BF3.

The 570 has 1.2gb and it's not enough.

The 480? 570 speed, 580 vram.

Just run the 480 stock and get yourself a headset.
