cheapest card that will be able to handle battlefield 3?

I'm going to be ditching my console and getting what I need to make my PC able to play some of the big upcoming releases (MW3, BF3). I think the computer I have right now will be able to handle these games (4GB RAM, i3) with the exception of the video card. What's the best card for the money that would be able to handle BF3 at around medium video settings? I'm on a budget so the cheaper the better.

    The i3 is a pretty low end processor if you are planning on buying a copy of BF3, however if you are not planning on playing higher than med settings oyu may be ok. I would suggest going with an HD 6850 ATI or an nVidia 460, both are decent cards and might get you to medium settings.
