Looks to me you are running dated technology there. And from the looks of the min. specs for battlefield 3 you might be able to run it, but not have very good performance. I will give you a good, better, and best for you. Since I'm unsure of your computer savviness, I will try to explain my thoughts a little.

Good: upgrade to a better video card (1 to 2 gigs),
I personally like ev3a. Make sure it fits your pci port on motherboard.

Better: Upgrade RAM as well. Many 8 gig kits are actually reasonably priced. I run G Skill in my rigs and never have trouble. Again be sure to use the correct port.

Best: Upgrade all 3. For the sake of future gaming a handpicked computer should last a while. AMD makes well priced pc processors, but most gamers and me prefer Intel. I start on newegg or tigerdirect and build my dream computer starting with the processor and slowly downgrade what i dont really need, until im close to disired budget and/or performance.

I hope this helps

You dont have 2 CPUs you have one CPU with 2 physical cores
