Well at the lowest settings, it would struggle to run at 30FPS.

The 710M may be able to handle low at 1366 x 768, but:

That CPU is an ultrabook processor, and lacks power.

My friend has an ultrabook with a 3317U 1.7GHz, 8GB of RAM and a 2GB 7670M, and he got 20-25 FPS when we tested BF3, due to a CPU bottleneck.

What is your budget, and where are you living?
