Ignore thatdont use system req lab... Ill tell you myself, I think on that specs you can run the game on a mix between medium and high.
 
As timil said, it'll run fine. Not sure on what quality specs, the 7770 is pretty good though. High or Ultra? Does it really matter? I'm sure you can tweak it to make it look really good, adding SSAO and higher AA is just going to crush performance for very little visual gratification.

Ssao is ambient occlusion it puts a shadowy halo around things to simulate realistic lighting. Leave it on ssao or try hdao. Dont use hbao its for nvidia cards

I don't think that you would be able to max it out (well I guess you could, but you would be dealing with console framerates)

I would suggest running it on High settings

EDIT: after looking into the card a bit more I would say High/med settings ( def set those shadows to medium and don't go crazy with AA)

Strange how this game is so difficult to run when most of the effects are "smoke and mirrors"

I tried fc3 on a core 2duo pcu with nvidia 9600gt 1gb ddr3 with 3gb ram and all in high settings and played reeealy smoothly.With at least 25-40 fps.So i guess on my pc it would MUUUUCH BETTER.Right?
