It's not going to play it on ultra, but it will play it comfortably on high and look great

I don't know how the CPU compares but I play on ultra using a Q6600 @3.0GHz, 8GB RAM and a 2GB 7850. At 1680 x 1050. It runs great on this rig.

just depends on fps you comfortable with and the res you have your screen set to etc

1680 x 1050 is the recommend default for a 22", drop it down a bit and frames go up but for me don't look as good etc

I would always recommend playing at the screen's native resolution and adjust options from there.
Ultra should be playable at 1080P dependant on AA settings.

Overclock the 7850 using the guide in the GPU forum, set settings to ultra and turn down msaa, and you should get an average of 60fps

Assuming it's a 1080p TV, it should play at high to ultra perfectly fine. I have a Q6600 @ 3.6GHz and a 6950 2GB and it plays BF3 on ultra on 1080p at around 50fps.
