I'm able to play this game with an 8350 and a Radeon 7850 w/ 1GB VRAM. My settings are on normal, but I get good frame rate. It's easily playable, and I never notice any dips. I don't have an FPS counter, so I can't give you numbers. If you like, I could try some stuff out with it and see what I get. But if you plan on playing on maxed settings, I would personally recommend a 770+. I'm by no means an expert, but this is what I can say from my personal experience.
