Actually frostbite engine 3.0+, in particular Battlefield and Battlefront, performs better on AMD cards. Not sure about Fifa 2017 but should be similar.

Thus RX 470 should be at the sweet spot for value or top up a bit more for RX 480(Just in case you want to play other more graphically intense games). 4GB version.

Lol those are for 900 series cards tho

You know GTX 1000 series already come out and already got people review them with BF 4 / Hardline and Mirror's Edge

The "designed for xxx company" claim doesn't mean jack. I remember last time got one engine said design for nvidia but ati end up faster too.

Actually depend on the particular game. Hardline is favor AMD. BF4 is favor Nv. BF3 is about equal. Bf1 is looking to favor Nv as well.

Just get a 1060 6gb that is around/below $350.
Will be more than enough for fifa.
And be able to play AAA games at high settings in the near future. (1080p)
