Differential Amplifier with higher gain bandwidth??

Hey, I have a Wheatstone bridge, and I plan on using a differential amplifier. The frequency of the signal that I am using is around 400kHz, sine wave. 

I created a differential amplifier using a general purpose op-amp, and found out that I need to use higher resistance of around 300Kohm in order to not affect the input signal

I have looked at most differential amplifier online, and found out that at higher frequency bandwidth, the differential amplifier uses lower resistance as shown below. 

Is there a differential amplifier that uses resistance of above 100kohm for 400Khz signal operation?

    Hi, 

    Lower gains can operate up to the MHz-range but unfortunately for G=1000, highest BW is up to 150kHz only.
    Another solution you can try is to use discrete circuits - differential amplifier + resistor network. 
    You can check LT5400-2, a quad matched resistor network.
