What are some cheap graphic cards that will play battlefield 3?

I am looking to get a new pc and it has a NVIDIA GT 530 graphics card, and i am not sure if it is good enough for battlefield 3. So i was wondering what a good cheap graphics card would be that can play it at medium to high settingsWhat are some cheap graphic cards that will play battlefield 3?
Your card = http://www.geforce.com/Hardware/GPUs/gef鈥?/a>

Cost is about 50鈧?and it has about same specs as a GT 520



Now, compare your GT 530 to GTX 560 Ti

GTX 560 costs around 200鈧? While this may not sound cheap, it will last for long and save you more in the long run, this is what I believe at least (you don't want to keep buying shitty graphics cards every few months).

If you buy a GTX 560 now, you can later put it in SLI mode with another GTX 560, meaning double the performance - which in some years, can be bought for alot cheaper.

edit: i looked up bf3 system requirements, found this;
