According to the BF3 system requirements page, your CPU should be fine. However your graphics card does not even meet the minimum requirements. http://bf3blog.com/battlefield-3-system-requirements/

If you locate your video card on this Tom's chart, you'll notice you have to scroll up quite a bit to get the the minimum requirements cards. http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/fastest-graphics-card-radeon-geforce,3085-7.html

Your power supply and budget will determine how high you can go. If you have a at least a good 300w power supply, you could get away with a HD 6670 card. You will still have to turn down the settings on the game, and maybe even lower the resolution.

If you could let me know what power supply you have(name/model #), and your budget, I may be able to help further.

What is the native resolution of your monitor? How high do you want your in-game settings to be?
