I currently have an e7500 @2.93 GHz along with a Radeon hd5770 1GB GDDR5. Obviously I couldn't run bf4 with these specs and I do not have enough budget to upgrade to a higher grade pc. I've found a q8300 on a reasonably well price and planning to buy just to play bf4. Will there be a chance to play multiplayer with these specs? Graphics are not important, I can play on lowest settings. Thanks for the help.

Oh almost forgot I have 4 Gigs of DDR2 rams.
 
Hi,

If you don't have at least a fx-6300 or core i5 paired with at least a gtx 660 / radeon 7970 and 8 gb of ram, I don't think you can play bf4 at descent FPS.

Battlefield 4 system requirements

The minimum PC system requirements for Battlefield 4 are expected to be:


Dual core CPU (Intel Core i5 or AMD “Bulldozer”).
At least 4 GB main system memory
Graphics card with at least 512 MB of VRAM and support for DirectX 10
30+ GB of harddrive space
Windows Vista

Recommended system requirements

The recommended PC system requirements for optimal visual quality and frame rates:

Quad core CPU (Intel Core i5 or i7) at 3 Ghz
4 GB memory (8 GB for 64-bit operating systems)
A modern DX11 graphics card with 2+ GB of video memory, GeForce 600 series or Radeon 7000 series
Windows 7 64-bit operating system (Windows 8 is supported as well)
30+ GB of free harddrive space

Do you mean 7870? A 7970 is a great bit higher than the recommended GPU, in fact, the 7870 is the specifically listed recommended GPU.

With what you said I mostly agree, except that you can run BF4 with decent FPS with a lot worse equipment than a FX-6300/i5 CPU and a GTX 660/7870, it just will have to be at a lower resolution, lower settngs, or both. In fact, I can run BF4 on 1366x768 low/medium settings hybrid at around 40FPS off of an AMD a10-4600M mobile APU in a laptop, so that shows you how low you can really get to run the game, if it isn't bugged like it is on my desktop.
