just test it out and monitor your frames, that's the best answer you can get. Benchmarks are nice and all when the game isn't currently accessible to you, but if you have it testing it yourself will go farther than any benchmark.

For example, I just got a new PC a few weeks ago, i7 4770 with a GTX 670 mini, according to benchmarks I should only be able to run it at Ultra without MSAA on if I want smooth frames, guess what? I'm running it on ultra preset, with the 4x MSAA on, in multiplayer and I never dip below 40 FPS, ever, no matter if a thousand tanks explode around me or not.

one thing that contributes to my performance is the newest drivers, which definitely help

Strange then, i have seen it run on ultra + 1080p. I paid 1029€ for that computer so... Im pretty disappointed then.

Edit: The pc meets those specs easily.

Where did you see that?

Here are some benchmarks

High settings (no MSAA)

Ultra settings (no MSAA)

Keep in mind that on the ultra benchmark the CPU is i7-3970x

You won't be able to pull more than 60FPS on ultra 1080p and especially not with MSAA on

And if you want to be competitive on multiplayer, anything bellow 50fps is consider as a drawback. So don't go over high settings

Over 1000 Euro for that PC seems a bit expensive. If you would have built it yourself, you could have gotten it for around 600 Euro.

Also it's not really a good system for gaming, since the CPU is a total overkill compare to the GPU. The most expensive part of a gaming PC should be the GPU, and then the CPU.

Agreed.
Overclock to stretch it out a bit.

Overcloking can break it. Have never done it before.
