There are 100's of video cards that match that description but only a handful of 'em would be a viable option.

- Case.
- PSU, not just wattage, actually link.
- Current specifications.
- Open PCIE lane or not.

Those are all factors that you have to take into consideration when buying a video card.

Also ''cheap'' + medium settings on BF3 =

Like generation said, but with one extra thing, what does your friend consider "Cheap"?
For me, a graphics card that's "cheap" would be about 130...

7770's go for about $100 and can run Arma II and BF3 easily at a 1600 x 900 resolution on medium settings assuming it's a viable option. Anything lower and you're simply getting crap that is horrible value for what you're paying.

Well, when I said about 130 I was referring to the 7770
