can i run it in full settings ?

[Rigby]

Not high settings because of the processor
low to medium will do well

[Fogest]

I'm not a expert on this nor has the game been released so you can't say really if it can run it on full because yo don't know how much full has to do. I'd assume though that it can run the game lag free.

You do notice he has a 4 Core processor right? That's a lot of power dude.

[wasaka1]

your graphics card is holding you back the most. for bf3 at 1080p i'de recommend at least a gtx 570

[Aimn]

I recommend put on Medium Setting.

@Fogest
But it's recommended to have a processor running over 3 ghz (quad-core)
this is a 2 ghz processor
it doesnt matter if its 4 cores it needs to be at 3ghz or it wont run at high settings

Quad-cores are useless for gaming. He'd be better off with an i5.

Current games don't need four cores.

Edit: No, full settings will not happen with a combination of your graphics card and your processor. Sorry. It's ok though. If it makes you feel better I won't be able to play on max either. Most people probably won't.

I have a i5. But the older version and it's a stupid chipset.

I can play on high but back to the main topic some settings will be high others won't be you can experiment with it, if you run some textures with high settings don't expect fast map loading times.

What I would suggest is toning down the shadows. You'll be able to put some other stuff higher if you sacrifice a little bit of the extras like shadows.

[Commander X]

Yeah if you can live with out high quality shadows it will make a huge difference.

@Joebob97, you're stupid. (No offense)
My friend has a single core Pentium 4 @3.4Ghz.
You think that would be better than the i7m?
No it wouldn't.
The frequency doesn't really matter.

Battlefield 3 is required for maximum image quality with a system with two GeForce GTX 580 graphics cards in SLI configuration. To those recommended in the official system requirements specifications are for the processor and the RAM (quad-core CPU and 4 GB of RAM). These facts come from Daniel Matros, community manager for the Battlefield series at DICE. In a tweet it is clear that the announced dates apply under the point recommendations for medium settings.

Minimum System Requirements

OS: WINDOWS VISTA (SERVICE PACK 2) 32-BIT
PROCESSOR: 2 GHZ DUAL CORE (CORE 2 DUO 2.4 GHZ OR ALTHON X2 2.7 GHZ)
MEMORY: 2 GB
HARD DRIVE: 20 GB
GRAPHICS CARD (AMD): DIRECTX 10.1 COMPATIBLE WITH 512 MB RAM (ATI RADEON 3000, 4000, 5000 OR 6000 SERIES, WITH ATI RADEON 3870 OR HIGHER PERFORMANCE)
GRAPHICS CARD (NVIDIA): DIRECTX 10.0 COMPATIBLE WITH 512 MB RAM (NVIDIA GEFORCE 8, 9, 200, 300, 400 OR 500 SERIES WITH NVIDIA GEFORCE 8800 GT OR HIGHER PERFORMANCE)

About the processor, i don't know if you noticed the M in the last part of the name, but tha'ts for mobility which means not so good.. so you don't come with a fake statement again, it's a laptop dude...

Might be a quad-core processor, but it's not a desktop computer he's using, it's a laptop, so these 4 cores aren't providing as much as if it was a desktop.

But it will still be enough...
